Usually, BDFs are not good tstms producer, at least for eastern sections. Once they get to the CT Valley, things do much better.

Is this the reason why MOS only reports sky cover forecast <12kft? That's one thing I like about NBM...I believe it accounts for higher clouds and will do much better at the sky cover forecasts. Though I think the NBM can sometimes be a bit too aggressive

Good night to grab a glass of whiskey and stare at the moon... 51F

My only concern is even if we see it, to get cold enough for snow will be confined to the higher elevations and if the PV gets stronger after, it will make it even more tough to get cold with the super strong niño. Unless this SSW debunks going trends, which i hope it does

Not for people who like nice weather.

I have told people that I would expect a wet winter, at minimum, for the region. Snow or no will come down to timing of cold air shots and hopefully some high latitude blocking that can lock in eastern Canadian high pressure. We could easily miss everything and get cold rain, but this season will have one of the better opportunities for precipitation in a long while with the southern jet likely to be very active for months.

This would be pretty insane to see occur this early. Wow

The perfect cliche of….A Cold November Rain. So appropriate.

Quality content in here today. A+

My sense was no lol

62 today. Really an incredible month

I think we're in a cyclic dry pattern now. 65-66 72-73 and even a non nino like 01-02 would be my analogs That won't stop next summer from being a very hot and dry summer. Told you Ray lol This is exactly why rainy winter forecasts are in trouble. I see similarities to 01-02. Non nino analogs like 01-02 also come into play. Below normal in the south because it's cloudy not because there's any arctic air around. Cyclical is why I use 65-66 and 72-73 as analogs and even a non nino analog like 01-02 because we entered a drier pattern in 2024. That kick started the dry pattern in 2024 It actually goes with 2001 fairly well It should be just like it is right now. Mild and sunny not rainy. Dont be so sure, the STJ can be suppressed like it was in 65-66 and 72-73. We are starting a new drier pattern. 2024 was the first sign. They did not forecast the eastern dryness either Yes. 5c warmer, there is a search for earth like planets like this they are called superhabitable. So far one has been found but it's 1100 light years away. Yes and we already had a cold snowy winter last year. Why do these people need one every year? That's partially true. However he's right astronomers consider earth like planets 5c warmer to be superhabitable. People will have to move away from the coast anyway and the government will stop new developments there and insurance companies won't cover it. There is a strong risk of suppression. And also 95-96 and 10-11 la ninas after El ninos are the best for hot summers and snowy winters which is why they go together. Yes this reminds me of the 2004 ALCS 19-7 loss by the Red Sox. Look what happened after that. After the 23-24 we kick started a very dry pattern dont be surprised if history repeats itself Chris. Yes which is exactly why some non nino analogs should also be looked at.

Is she going to go? I do believe making her go to that game could be considered abuse of some kind.

These would be some nasty cold rains if they work out.

Its looking great in the southern mtns at 2500 and below

Just cocked up

I’d probably use Blue Hill as the standard for sunshine hours.

The haze / air quality was very noticeable in the ridge/valley region. Dampened my leaf spotting vibe. Just about peak in Alleganey / Washington counties.

Nobody is arguing that it won’t stretch or split. But the vibe coming from all this acts like a colonial winter is coming.

The ECMWF still has a SSW reversal (60N) on November 4th,may be the earliest I've ever seen.Anyways I'd watch for an - AO tanking middle/late November.

May have to be careful here…not sure. Once METAR took over in 1996 everything went to <= 12kft ceilometer observations. A few of the larger airports did augment higher levels in, but I’m not sure how consistent that has been. BOS has had a 25kft ceilometer for awhile now, and does consistently augment, but I’m not sure how the high level coverage compares to the pre ASOS days with manned SA obs. At least Fish was smart enough to use BOS. @vortex95 would probably know more on that Here’s CON. A big “drop off” in cloudiness in 1996 once the ceiling reporting stopped at 12kft. It’s pretty stupid seeing obs reported as CLR/Fair when it’s totally overcast at 15kft.
