Would anyone like to make a guess as to the coldest MJO phase for ATL since 1975 in January?

 

I'd go w/ phase 8 on this one, strong Aleutian trough, maximum pacific jet extension= +PNA/-EPO, as a whole, the pattern appears to dictate that incoming air has more arctic origin while at the same time holding it's Pacific influence... For El Ninos, I'd go w/ phase 1...

Looks like you took pi to 8198 decimal places, so only an infinite number of decimal places to go!

 

(Looks like it also destroyed this page's formatting, LOL)

cod

 

Thanks for all of the guesses!

 

 We have a winner, Franklin's COD! When I finish compiling my numbers, I'll present 1-8 and the COD for comparison. Technically, the COD is lower amplitude of the 8 phases but I consider it its own animal.

So, this begs the Q: why would the COD be the coldest? Webber? Anyone? I never would have guessed this before I analyzed it because I've never heard anyone say that the COD was the coldest in Jan (at least in ATL and I assume in the SE US as a whole)(and quite possibly also in Dec/Feb though that research has yet to have been done in detail).

So, from now on, I'm not rooting for 7 or 8 or 1 or 2. I'm rooting for COD at least in Jan....seriously! COD is the sleeper that hardly any of us knew!      

 

 

 

Edit: By the way, all six of ATL's major ZR's since 1975 have been when the MJO was in the COD. Now it makes more sense.

I knew there was a catch to this... :) I know the VPM index however tends to spend significantly less time in the COD than RMM, which is one reason why I'm looking into the data right now... i would like to do more cities in the southeast than just Atlanta, but that's a project I'll save for another time, there's plenty, far more pressing matters I have in front of me. Like for instance NC Winter Storm VP research or even calculating the monthly, tri-monthly mean, & it's change over time (since 1950) with variables like 10.7cm Solar Flux, Total Solar Irradiance, Neutron Count (proxy for cosmic ray flux), sunspot number, AP index, etc, and a wide variety of other telconnections & miscellaneous items that I've put into a massive spreadsheet, which I hope to readily derive analogs from & pick up on certain conditions I may miss out on by visual, or relatively more simplistic analysis...

This is true on the northside, where the last major ZR was in Dec. of 2005. However, the southside/eastside just had a big ZR 2/12/2014.

 

Yep.

 

When we do finally get one up here, it's gonna do a lot of damage.  The trees have not been forcibly "pruned" in nearly a decade now.  There will be a lot of roads closed and a lot of power outages.
