I don't necessarily agree with this. Its a good polar and ENSO analog.

Yep shame We need interesting weather

It Just Doesn't Matter...

Congrats RI to SE MA today. Needed yesterday west of there. Next 10 looo dry and boring as dong

Yesterday was the first time since July 2, 2021 that saw Newark and White Plains pick up 1" or more of rain, while JFK Airport, LaGuardia Airport, and Central Park had less than 1" of rain. It was the first time where Bridgeport received no precipitation when Newark and White Plains picked up 1" or more of rain, while JFK Airport, LaGuardia Airport, and Central Park had less than 1" of rain.

Unless there is a very radical shift in the PDO to a Victoria mode between now and December, I would not have 13-14 as an analog. The blooming -IOD also doesn’t fit, neither does ENSO

70/69 warm start.

66.1° with some light fog.

Gone before it ever developed. CV season is here!

And part of the problem with 22-23 was the timing of those favorable patterns. They happened outside of our peak winter window. Had they occurred in Jan and Feb instead of Dec and Mar, the outcome would probably not have been a ratter like it was.

Steined yesterday in far eastern CT, temp 71F to start this am

At least they’ll be waves. Good bye Erin.

Starting to think there's probably no chance of this making landfall on the US east coast. It could still get close but landfall really looks unlikely now.

Somehow I’m not seeing how the euro long term vs the mjo phases match

Man, may the day where you don’t get psyched but a huge thunderstorm maturing over you dumping loads of rain with frequent thunder and lightning never excite you never arrive.

Lock it up!

0Z Euro: 200 miles E of 12Z/recurves near 72.5W vs 75W of 12Z and yesterday’s 0Z recurving near 70W.

Followup to above: 0Z UKMET has a similarly placed TD following Erin vs the 12Z run: NEW TROPICAL CYCLONE FORECAST TO DEVELOP AFTER 156 HOURS FORECAST POSITION AT T+156 : 15.9N 28.1W LEAD CENTRAL MAXIMUM WIND VERIFYING TIME TIME POSITION PRESSURE (MB) SPEED (KNOTS) -------------- ---- -------- ------------- ------------- 1200UTC 20.08.2025 156 15.9N 28.1W 1010 33 0000UTC 21.08.2025 168 15.8N 30.4W 1009 29

there was some heavy rain for awhile with lightning and thunder and an odd purple colored sky close to sunset. Nothing severe (which we don't need) but some heavy rain without flooding was nice to see

00z ICON shifts farther west but replaces a high out in the northern Atlantic with a trough, which is not the scenario you’d want to see for even a glancing blow. That being said there’s still a ton of variation with the upper level environment 8 days out. I thought it was an easy recurve a day ago, still the most likely scenario but worth watching for the next couple of days.

It is well worth it. At least it was until your oligarch regime is stripping away green energy incentives.

Saw my gauge got about 0.2”. Was ok with that until I looked at the radar estimates of over 4” just a few miles away. Alas. Hit 101 on the car thermometer today near SLC. Dusty as hell. Think I prefer the humidity in DC.

Rode this NNE heat wave out in the Allagash, just returned this evening but was on the river since last Thursday. Holy shit what a bizarre yet amazing trip - this was my tenth and truly one of a kind. Never put a rain fly on the tent and basically lived in the river when not paddling. Truly a unique experience for a northern river trip. Water was scary warm in the main stem but we still managed to find and eat some brookies from the feeder streams.
