If Chicago is 0 the rest of the month, they finish +3. And the Euro is showing a big ridge in the medium range. It's not a good forecast, the model can't even factor in the first 6 days right.

usually he's pulling out the 09-10, 02-03 analogs so interesting he's so bearish.

Next 10 days look warmer than average with perhaps some cooler readings day 11-15.

good looks like a snowy winter around here if he said that

I have a couple of low spots than need filling from stumps that have been rotting away over the decades, have been holding off until we get some rain

Still to see where the ridge forms mid month for a warmer period - 9/14 - 9/18th tendency has been more SW and we ride the periphery, but there have been several runs between and back and forth from the gfs and eur on a more expansive EC ridge. Whatever warmup we realize the period beyond the 18th looks to have a brief but crisp cooldown in the period till the equinox.

how many struggling independent ski resorts is this nino going to put out of business?

I overseeded, but thanks to Stein I need to lug a bunch of sprinklers around for at least 5-7 days

68 / 57 another gorgeous day on tap Warmer the next 48 hours mid - upper 80s maybe a stray 90 in the hot locations inland, ahead of a front that could bring some showers, storms or scattered rain / clouds on thursd. A period of near normal this upcoming weekend before ridge comes east and where it builds will be key in how much warmth can push into the northeast from mid month (next week). Overall warmer in the period beyond Sunday.

Well 70’s and 80’s all of Sept and into Oct is summer .

JB says 97-98 is the best match for this winter.

with hurricane season canceled it's going to be a dry month

Yep, I was up there Saturday and Sunday, and it was cool and crisp. Looks like all sub-75 days except for one outlier.

My low this morning was 54.

I've been planning on reseeding a couple areas for the last 3 yrs and I don't trust using the well to do it, so looks like another pass this year on doing it.

Nice morning out.

It’s not even summer. Just boredom.

50 degrees this morning. I think my hummingbirds are gone for the year. Haven’t seen them in a couple days.

Low of 53 in Marysville.

Endless summer is upon us

The 0-300m ocean heat content is really off the charts.
