But take a look at the end of week two. If the ECMWF is correct you're starting to see a negative EPO with a trough in the GOA with an Alaskan ridge building. This should promote colder temps for eastern North America in week 3 of November
Bastardi ultra bullish on a cold start to winter and a very very cold December for the Great Lakes. Wow he's going for a -5F anomaly
He also provides an SST anomaly map with corresponding anomalies over the land areas
He goes on further to show that an Easterly QBO that we are entering also favors cold

The operational GFS has a signal in that direction but it's too far away to be taken seriously and furthermore there's no serious support from the ensembles so I won't bother posting it. However, there is finally some cold air developing in Siberia (although the Canadian Arctic remains very mild).
I cut-and-paste the forecast for your viewing pleasure. Hard to fathom.

Waiting for a freeze here, models show below freezing temps aloft starting late Monday through most of the week. Whether or not that will translate to a freeze at the surface is the question.
is really that record candidate? I thought that zone was capable of even more. Those numbers are pretty reachable like every winter here in the central Andes, in fact even during this year's very lackluster season there was one atmosferic river in that range of snow maker. And of course in the southern patagonian icefield they're the norm.
