Obviously, there are plenty on here that know more than I do, in which case, keep at it because I love reading your posts, but I’m personally done playing the long range guessing game until there’s some semblance of consistency.
Back in December I remember posting that during Aleutian low pattern and +PNA wxman57 is notorious for chiming in that source region will be warm. Of course it will be! Ridge in West Canada (complete opposite when there's a trough there). It's a better delivery pattern. North and Central Canada is where the cold then sits, but you need a large carving trough in the southwest to pull it back. You do need cross polar flow to seed it.
