Warmed again this am, currently 39F

What I've bolded would work for me, as I'm not a fan of nickel and dime events that just slop up the roads with salt. I've always been a "go big or go home" guy, and as a driver I hate a dirty truck.

Nothing to be proud of son. Your could have developed a 24hr treatment/cure for blood clots or something worthwhile. Makes you wonder what took Ch6 so long? He wrote on FB today big announcement at 6pm. Some were hoping retirement...some thought he was going straight. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1EWLe2HbiM/

Called it

Stratosphere warming is not uncommon in El Nino's. The last Super Nino, 23-24, had 4 separate SSW's. This one is looking barely above average lol. +QBO may be a hindrance to SSWs this cold season but since El Nino's favor warmings, they kind of cancel each other out.

Wavelengths are fairly uniform. Composite of our storms >6-8" has a -120dm GOA low! That's so strong of a signal I have been saying no to many major snowstorm threats on models over the last few years when there is High pressure there instead lol. The mean composite for DJFM in Super Nino's is also -120dm.. so one encompasses 4 months, the other a few days but they are equal. The Super El Nino sample is not that large. If you only plot the Gulf of Alaska low anomaly in the Winter months our temps here are right around average, below in the Southeast, and above up near the Great Lakes. +EPO is really the pattern we don't want. But the few Super Nino analogs have run very different downstream than non-ENSO analogs of low pressure in the same exact spot in the N. Pacific! I'm saying that the difference shouldn't be so great and if the pattern happens again it may match the 100 all-ENSO analogs vs 5 or so Super Nino analogs.

Stratosphere warming is not uncommon in El Nino.

Crazy dry weather forecast across most modeing. The Euro AI is absolute 0 qpf for the next 15 days. The GFS at 18z had some rain but most runs of it are dry too. Dread that for this time of year. Leaves are also doing very poorly here. Hardly any color, even though we had around 1.5 inches of the Friday before the hurricane and another 2 inches almost from the hurricane. We had a few hundredths from the front that brought the frost. One of the really nice orange trees by the creek behind my house went from mostly green to mostly bare with almost no color.

Holding strong so far, heat is staying off until my house goes below 58. Hit 58 briefly Sunday morning. I'm not a "badge of honor" guy, I'm just not looking forward to these oil prices lol.

I hope you're right about December. I love when it's cold leading up to the holidays. A lot of what I'm reading is that December might be well AN. I'm riding your prediction.

none of that is going to matter when there's a vortex locked over the northeast pacific extending into the west coast

Funny how “worst of winter” and “big snowstorms” seems to follow a population density map of the US every year in these online forecasts. Must be a coincidence

Indeed as it on today’s Euro Weeklies gets down to +14 in early Nov, weakest run yet. Nothing earth shatteringly weak but interesting, regardless:
