The Big Picture… Our current mild overall pattern shows signs of a breakdown late month, and more so take affect into March. There is some contradictory factors. The cooling off the west coast may help a negative PNA hold and prevent the severe cold from returning this wintet, but allow a pattern to go back into a consistent cold period week 1-3 in March. Lots of details to be worked out and will reveal themselves in time. As of now, plenty of hope for a wintry stretch yet.
