Select My Forecast/Prognostic Discussion (a LOT of MAPS) so I decided to do it this way.

Thanks.

Look at the signature in the Central N PAC ... nice blocking signature which COULD keep our high in place out there, and yes, there MIGHT be some indications of cross-polar. However, the 3 day average might be losing the -NAO signature (although, weakly there). Interesting times ahead ...

Nice discussion, SF.

the loop posted by stormsfury clearly shows that the cold air is sliding down SE or ESE.

This will likely NOT be an arctic outbreak, but cold temps for sure, for this time of year, I would not be surprised if NYC has a couple of highs below freezing between JAN 7 and JAN 13.

So instead of arctic air of 20F+ degrees below normal, I'd expect a period of temps 10F below normal from PHL northward, and 5-10F below normal in the lower mid atlantic and lower apps areas.
SE? Maybe around 5F below normal.

Not exactly a forecast on my part but I think the statements I have made are plausable to likely.
