Chilly day today puts me in a mood for an optimistic post.
Do not lose hope my friends despite the coming torchmas. We torch but the broader pattern has changed. As prior mention the MJO forecast thus far have verified and the overall Cryosphere is beginning to set up the high latitude blocking (it hasn't happened yet but on the verge.) As a result the AO forecast is on the road to tank.

So for the first time this young meteorological winter the AO is now negative. That means the Arctic and Polar regions is ripe to disperse the bottled cold air eventually. We have plenty of it to disperse.
Needless it has happened before, can it happen again? Is the Arctic regions ready to go inside out and dislodge itself?
Some posts mid to late Jan 2021. It was desolate with the same ridge/trough configuration we are in now.

Gotta love it.
This isn't getting anyone hyped lol
As the cold built in Canada eventually the -PNA relaxed and the -NAO/AO came. It was then unloaded...can we do it again but earlier?
Some posted maps from that period.
Maybe?...
Wxman57's miscalculation is that the more he fortifies his seemingly impenetrable wall...the more it is pressured up behind it just waiting...for now...
