I'm from the Seattle area (Kitsap Peninsula) and enjoyed seeing Mt Rainier across the water every morning ... well, in the summer, anyway, when it hardly rains Got the weather bug as a kid, so the PNW has plenty of excitement in that regard. But COL made it difficult to raise a family. Next best for what my spouse and I would like (two introverts, fans of winter weather, hate extreme heat) would be New England - Vermont/New Hampshire/Maine. Not sure Indiana will be forever, even if it has been longer than expected at 12 years!

regardless what a 3 year stretch that was overall

Personally would love living in OR and WA. Really enjoyed my trips to Portland and Vancouver the last couple years. I would trade the boring weather in any home base in those States for the extreme change in climate/weather going on treks to the local mountains. Obligatory if I stayed in the Midwest would love to be in MI.

I've lived in 8 states. Illinois rn. From AZ to FL to SC, VA, WV, MD, and PA. I love the change of seasons. WV mountains and Western Maryland are beautiful but just a little too much Winter. I considered a home in Northern Lower Michigan at one point. Would probably end up in Pennsylvania's northern tier or somewhere in Virginia at elevation. Some nice areas up above 4000'. I grew up in Northern Virginia about 30 miles west of DC.

A severe thunderstorm went over my home ~3:10-25PM per radar. I’m out of town and thus couldn’t witness it. I think this is the first sig. rain there in a good while.

The March 1993 Superstorm was an extreme synoptic event, and attributing it directly to Pinatubo would be too strong. The storm's immediate ingredients were things like: very strong temperature gradients + Gulf moisture + a powerful upper-level trough + explosive cyclogenesis + favorable jet-stream configuration. Pinatubo didn't determine that exact storm track three years in advance.

54F at DTW this morning. Though we did come close with 55F on July 23, this was our coldest morning since June 24th.

putting weather, people, and COL aside, the bay area is the most beautiful place in the world and adjacent to even more, a few hour drive into the sierras just crushes wisconsin or michigan or whatever we can muster that said, extremely content and happy here and will likely live within a mile or two of where i am now for the rest of my life

After a parade of struggling invests which have failed to materialize, it looks like the Atlantic, in this anemic season, may actually be capable of producing a potentially long-tracking hurricane! 96L is not currently a threat to land, and the vast majority of models show this system recurving out to well east of the CONUS

A beauty.

^This is now Invest 96L and it’s up to 30%/60% in the TWO.

Another beautiful day with a temp of 75 degrees.

2026-2027 Record-breaking El Nino
michsnowfreak replied to Stormchaserchuck1's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
Different regions definitely prefer different ENSO's. For here its NO contest - La Nina all day, any day. Strong El Nino is typically the worst ENSO state you want to see here in winter. We still get multiple rounds of snow/winter in strong Ninos, just usually less of it than normal. For the midatlantic where it's more of a feast/famine climate, the history of large snowstorms in El Nino vs La Nina makes it easy to see why you guys prefer Nino. -

Imagine if that purple, late-blooming one that peaks near 5C verifies. -
That 2023 is the anomaly is particularly interesting. Definitely a new pattern, these times.
