It looks dry for now, but those details will sort themselves out. After that? The Euro sends a piece of the trough into Alaska, 12z GFS digs it SW and the 18z into the Gulf of Alaska. Those details will have huge implications on how long it stays cold for. Model riding continues....

This is a good comparison. Need the trough to dig more to the SW to see that arctic front passage through the south coast and ensuing rapid temp drop. As it stands though, the 18z is still a very good run for next week.

I will take snow at the start and a cold dry week. I want to skate on the Fen!
Why not try cycling to work, grocery store, anywhere!

Yep. Haven't skated on our pond for almost two years exactly.

I checked the data closely and it looks like today's 18z is about 2C milder than yesterday's. Not exactly what you want to see, but not enough difference to be meaningful. Tonight's 00z GFS and Euro will be telling, especially when we compare it to last night's.

At this point I'm on board with a modified arctic outbreak, at a minimum. Could be a legit arctic outbreak, but better to be cautiously optimistic given the model performance of late.

Still some room for things to trend colder (or warmer).
