Strong, Zonal Pacific Jet Now in Place!

The 300 mb GFS analysis from 1200 UTC this morning (Saturday Jan. 16, 2010) shows an extremely strong (>150 kt core), zonal jetstream across most of the Pacific. The development of this feature has been consistently forecast by both GFS and ECMWF models for about 10 days now. Simply quite amazing. We will now see what the next 10 days bring to us in the Southwest.
