Re: Water Temps

Just looked at the 00Z GFS long range... and going back and looking at last few runs/days.... Long range, say late next week... toward end of the month, looks like we may see a pattern change take place... looks somewhat familiar too a few years ago (not as much as last year, but before that)... the trough of low pressure along the east US looks to turn more zonal in the northern US... and be replaced by a ridge of high pressure the eastern US into the atlantic... i think in the last couple of days, the long range GFS is showing some signs of a pattern shift, and how long it last, who knows... for a short time, or for weeks... only time will tell...

GFS

Almost looks like the pacific NW US... Northern Pacific towards Alaska is going to see a pattern change... the low area may get replaced with high pressure out off the coast? Would be great news for the SW US... where all the wildfires are. The change out west would affect the eastern US... almost looks like to set up a blocking pattern with the ridge off the east coast for tropical systems if they would form, around the end of the month...

Any others see this shaping up in long range??
