Left house and it was bright blue skies and gorgeous temps. On rt 9 and I see a wall of clouds

Dang Nola. Not many major hurricanes cross the date line

Latest HRRR as posted by @olafminesaw is a kick in the nads for the norther tier, which for some reason has been unable to catch a break since the end of July. Mean while the southern tier still set for a decent soaking. The NAM still looks much better for the NE quadrant, including Wake, but how much stock can you put in a model that is at death's door? Really impatient for the el nino southern jet stream to kick in

We’re getting a makeup for the fail we had in late June.

Enjoy the show. Wanted to get tickets, but already had bought tickets for Smashing Pumpkins tonight and my daughter came home from school for the show.

The official season of 1914 consisted of just one tropical storm (rated at 60knots with landfall around Jax Fla.) I would also note 1914 produced a devastating nor'easter on the Mid-Atlantic Coast. Image below is from Rehoboth Beach, DE. Thinking of the Great Atlantic Coastal Storm of March 1962 storm I researched a bit. The Atlantic was active in 1961 then relatively quiet in 1962 (least active since 1946.) El Nino didn't appear until 1963. Another 1962 storm, less well known to those of us in the East, was the Columbus Day Storm, the most devastating in Oregon history.

Beautiful morning with nice breeze, blue skies and cool temperatures. Overnight low of 51. Leaf color change becoming rapidly noticeable up this way. Pumpkin spice everything is everywhere. The pick your own apple orchards are hurting with many closed due to the Spring Freeze.

I spit some of my coffee.

Its a risk / reward climate here. The chances of breaching 95/96 for the snowiest winter is also on the table any given year due to our proximity to the ocean (noreasters) and latitude. I can see both happening in my lifetime. In fact the snowiest winter was only 2 years prior to the latest snowfall year of 97/98

Late blooming miller Bs are great for this area. I’ll take that any day over Miller As.

59 earlier and 67 now and blue skies. Beautiful day incoming

Maybe the bad omen only applies to DMV, I have checked the data before. It didn’t look good. But there are always exceptions
