All Activity

Well spider season is here. Had one of those stupid brownish yellow ones that move really fast crawling on the coffee maker when I was making coffee and there is one of the same type on my office room wall and its a bit too high up for me to get with the device to put it outside. Must be a nest

From DT: **ALERT ** SUPER EL NINO LIKELY JULY 2026- MARCH 2027 COULD be strongest EVER !

Long period of Stein beginning https://x.com/jimcantore/status/2041071819201859899?s=46&t=dhcbvkjmRcyBVQtDxJ3lRg

I already see our future punishment. High & dry summer. Excitement delegated to the next dust storm or smoke filled sky from wildfires out west. Kidding. Sort-of.

I just got woken up to what sounded like my roof about to get yanked off my house. The wind almost never wakes me up.That had to be one hell of a gust.

xtended looks warm + active too?

It’s. So. Windy.

20 degree swing in 12 hours from 73 to 53 and nw winds almost 20 its cold again. I like mild now

Yeah, I did it already!

Global temperatures seem to bottom out around 1917 (following a super la nina), at about -0.2 lower than the 1850-1900 pre-industrial mean. If we use 1917 as the zero point, 1.5C would have been first breached in 2016, and the global temperature anomaly for 2024 would be at +1.8C.

Yeah there's no reason to wait

I ended up getting the better part of 1/2” of much needed rain from thunderstorms late this afternoon. That was the best rain in quite awhile!

Another period of significantly above

Yeah, just effin’ shoot me if that comes to pass.

Leaving a restaurant today and it was pouring. I guess at least an inch, Newport News International Airport says .67 inches. GFS sucks too. There is no rain for the next 2 weeks.

Makes sense with descending solar....probably more to come next several years.

Im thinking you guys will have snow on the ground (Canadian side as well) into May this year.

Some big +NAO's lately. This is based around the day DC hit 80 mid Winter.. it had never gone 80 Dec-Feb before that. +3.5 NAO Now we had a March +NAO that broke monthly records going back 75 years by +0.84! The end result? The most extremely anomalous ridge the US has ever seen. Big +NAO spikes are correlating with some warm extremes the last 3 years.

Yup,that time of year is upon us where everyone installs and gets em up .. and in.

Legitimately missed out on the rain today, 0.01” total. Everything this evening evaporated moving in and then reformed east of here

I'll bet we can salvage that...we just ended an incredible decade of predominately +WPO....it just flipped this past season, so probably due for continued regression there.

I hope so.

Luckily we can track that way ahead of time as Global SSTAs have a huge correlation with following season WPO

Yea, looks like WPO is going to be key to salvage a decent northeast snowfall season...only 1982 wasn't a disaster, which has a -WPO.
