Boring. Hopefully a cat 3 comes up the bay in September bringing a tornado swarm and big river flooding to make up for this historically boring pattern we've been stuck in since sleet fest in January.

The 10.31 in North Chatham is intense.

Rainfall totals covering the entire event. Surprised the totals over the western third of Massachusetts are not higher given the radar over that area most of yesterday. Click to enlarge.

clouds clinging like glue as they always do in these setups - again Wildwood and Cape May look like the winners with mostly sunny

I was hoping it was done, but no... It's been a thick, heavy mist for a while now and it looks like another slug of rain incoming.

Yesterday held in the 60s for all 24 hours. That had to be close to a record low max for a day without precipitation, even out here. Hope you have a fun weekend!

2026-2027 Super El Nino
SnoSki14 replied to Stormchaserchuck1's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
I don't know how true that is but I don't believe it's going to be a wall to wall torch with very low snows. I think this winter will be highly variable and the back half will generate at least 1 major snowstorm for the east. -
2026-2027 Super El Nino
George001 replied to Stormchaserchuck1's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
Super El Niño is bad for sustained cold, it isn’t necessarily bad for snow. For say NYC and SE you guys I think could actually do well snow wise because all it takes is one big storm to get you over your seasonal snow totals. I would also think the storm track with the active super Nino driven STJ could be good for the mid Atlantic. Super Nino is bad for coastal SNE and ski areas for 2 reasons however: 1. More of our snow consists of nickel and dime events than huge storms, so the super Nino tradeoff (warmer overall, very few nickle and dime events, elevated risk of huge storms) hits northern areas harder. This is the bigger issue for ski areas, as well as the worse snow retention due to it being milder overall. 2. The active southern jet doesn’t necessarily push storms up the coast if the “big one” does hit , often they slide out after hitting the mid Atlantic rather than coming up (see Jan 2016), and when they do come up they tend to run inland a bit and bring in warmer air, bringing rain to coastal New England. This is the bigger issue for areas like Boston, the juiced up Miller A track often isn’t great here. We tend to do better with Miller Bs and SWFE events. I’m not optimistic for my area and the ski areas, but in NYC and the mid atlantic I don’t think how things are developing is necessarily bad in terms of snow prospects.
