What Should I Look at to Identify Increased Pattern Change/Cold Air Risk?
What to look for as cold season is about to begin to identify pattern change and potential cold air outbreaks, which according to NOAA SFS V2, may be higher than current expectations. One of the lead diagnostics is snow cover and snow cover anomalies observations and trends. If snow cover is advancing (or developing), a built-in cold bias to the pattern across and downwind of the snow cover advancement trend evolves. Conversely, just south of snow cover during meteorological winter, mild temperatures over-achieve.
