Had to move two turtles across roads today. One was a big 'un snapper llol

Yes it does in summer. It would be a Dewey flow. You don’t get 50’s and rains fir days in late June

wet doesn't mean it humid..

Not wet no . If it’s wet, it’s humid . If not it’s 82/55 type stuff

A lot of this gets lost in the miasma of whatever happens in this thread. Thanks and I agree while records could be set if things set up perfectly that contrast west to east is important in overall effects we will see in the CONUS. We have not been able to get the contrast of warm east cool west of the tropical Pacific for awhile. I would like to think a quicker onset of the Nino might play a role in the winter outcome as well.

cooler and wetter pattern looks to be coming up

I know it won’t happen this way (probably), but I’m gonna get grumpy if every front in the next 10 days passes at like 5am like today’s guidance wants to do

Thanks. Some of us have already been discussing ‘26-7 vs ‘97-8. On Saturday I posted that per the Euro progs, ‘26-7 is looking to evolve into a much less E based Nino than ‘97-8, which became the most E based Nino on record (back to 1951-2). When I refer to E based, I’m referring to the differences between 1+2 and 3 vs 3.4 and 4. This is what I posted: More on 97. Here were the monthlies: 1+2 3 4 3.4 1997 6 26.12 3.00 28.13 1.51 29.23 0.26 28.82 1.09 1997 7 25.59 3.63 27.90 2.09 29.37 0.47 28.86 1.56 1997 8 24.96 3.96 27.71 2.59 29.29 0.50 28.75 1.89 1997 9 24.69 3.96 27.74 2.84 29.44 0.68 28.85 2.13 1997 10 24.69 3.67 28.06 3.08 29.34 0.58 29.08 2.36 1997 11 26.12 4.47 28.37 3.27 29.39 0.69 29.12 2.41 1997 12 27.06 4.25 28.53 3.30 29.11 0.57 28.89 2.29 1998 1 28.12 3.55 28.74 3.08 28.95 0.64 28.93 2.38 1998 2 28.74 2.64 28.90 2.49 28.79 0.59 28.78 2.03 1+2 (peak 4.47) and 3 (peak 3.3) were way, way stronger than 4, which remained just wk (peak 0.69) and even way stronger than 3.4 (peak 2.41)! The forecast for ‘26 is much stronger in 3.4/4 and stronger in 3, but not as strong in 1+2: Per latest Euro, here are peak non-rel. monthlies: 1+2: 3.9 3: 3.9 3.4: 3.7 4: 2.4 That’s only a contrast of 1.5 from E to W compared to 3.8 in ‘97! And contrast from 1+2 to 3.4 is a mere 0.2 vs 2.1 in ‘97!! So, the prog is for ‘26 to be E based but way more balanced and thus not nearly as E based as the extremely E based ‘97.

76 was the high here today.

You can’t just look at mapped out charts for temps. Look big picture, Climo , water in ground , source region , trough axis etc . If you look at everything the pattern next week looks like 78-86 for highs . Probably a day or two like today then warming

As the humanity bus goes over the cliff…

Too early for that No, it looks to me more like it’s just a regression to what happened all last winter Very sting Ninos more correlate to a sub tropical jet and on this side of the solstice with summer still suing we are nowhere near engineering that sort of hemispheric response until the seasonal gradient steepens next autumn/winter That is … if it really gets strong enough to exceed RONI numbing

Got slammed again with .39" in less than an hour earlier. Some hail but nothing bigger than marble size.

It will be interesting to see how strong the ongoing and rapidly developing El Niño becomes. Only the 1997-98, 2015-16, and 2023-24 El Niño events saw the 6-week moving average for Region 3.4 reach or exceed +0.9°C in June or July.

Absolute perfection out there now. 76° / 48° with clear skies.

So when can we start to discuss the differences between how these two similiarish ENSO events will evolve?

So I should just pencil in my PDS blizzard warning?

Yeah its not a hot pattern, we'll see if we sneak in a day or two of post front/wave clouds and cool

EPS not much better there sparky

Above normal temperatures will return for the remainder of the week by Wednesday or Thursday. Tomorrow will see highs in the lower 80s. Wednesday should see highs in the lower to perhaps middle 80s. The temperature could approach or reach 90° to end the week. Parts of the region could experience a heatwave during the second half of the week. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +2.6°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +1.3°C for the week centered around June 3. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +1.95°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.98°C. The ongoing El Niño will continue to strengthen through the summer. The SOI was -25.52 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +0.597 today. Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied near 76% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal June (1991-2020 normal). June will likely finish with a mean temperature near 74.8° (2.8° above normal). That would make June 2026 the fifth warmest June on record. Supplemental Information: The projected mean would be 3.4° above the 1981-2010 normal monthly value.

non-confirmed tornado warning with now hail high into the sky, 60dbz going way up there

Remember the last few time you did this . Posted op runs. And they turned out 20-30 degrees warmer upon verification. When will you learn?
