lol...never offended by anything I read online, but you do certainly make me laugh at your pretentiousness.

In this case, Templeton got the best storm of the day, and its intensity max right over the area, and then weakened. When you are not expecting it, and the isolated happens to be in your backyard, of course you are going to be elated! Also, early season convection after a long winter always gets more notice.

I don't think this one is going to be as east as 1997. That one hugged South America The forcing with this one may actually be quite a bit more west Nino 4 is much different now than in 1997

Out of the last 4 “recent” super El Niño events (1972, 1982, 1997, 2015), this one matches 1997 the closest, by far. Although this one is warmer in the subsurface than 1997 was. It looks nothing at all like 2015 at this time in either the subsurface or the surface. The DWKWs have just begun to surface at the coast of South America over the last couple of days. This one is certainly following a classic east-based/EP progression…..

The radar QPE algorithm is having a terrible time with this event. I’m sitting at 0.23” and DCA is 0.21” and the radar estimate is ~0.7”.

@CAPE you got some yellows and orange on radar heading in?

She only looks petrified, she's actually frozen stiff.

I haven’t moved the rain magnet from my old house yet, so congrats SOMD

in NYC? Its happened in EWR - NJ. Ill have to check

That’s a pretty classic last four or more winter events kinda precip shield for our area - just hilarious watching the moisture hit a wall around Baltimore City and not advance north at all

If we get a 90-degree day in May, this spring would be the first ever to get an 80 in March, and a 90 in both April and May, correct?

0.16 so far which is the most I've had for weeks. Hoping for more from that batch in central VA. You're right about it looking heavier on radar that is actually is. Yellows on radar just produce light rain. But I'll take it! Glad it held off for Mothers' Day

Ridging building in 5.17 - beyond next shot at 90s 5/17 - 5/24 - beyond

SST Anomaly

It's been a steady moderate rain here all morning. It looks heavier on radar than it actually is. There's probably some big wet snowflakes aloft.

Hm Not sure that you do ( bold ^), because your ensemble of reply is overbearing, out of line, and looks petty - seriously ...why in the fuck are you bolding text that was completely in jest. He knows that.... chill out and go away Besides ... those are outliers. They don't represent the intent and spin of his typical attempt at overselling - so ...I'm just bustin his balls Hopefully, you are sufficiently offended now.

0.02” today for a 0.11” two day total lol

Absolutely a nice weather morning we are having down here.... Much needed steady rainfall.... My first measurable rainfall in weeks...

Your wife is probably petrified.

Sprinkles earlier but rain missed us again, this time to the north

Wednesday would be a lot more interesting if low level winds were going to back. NW flow with modest dewpoints could give some nice, sculpted updrafts though. Wed might be decent for photography. Then early next week we'll see if we can get a system into the Mid-South. Current forecasts have it weakening as it moves out of the Plains into the Midwest. Just scattered showers for the Mid-South.

It has been a good spring for backdoor cold front enthusiasts

The radar right now reminds me of the January 3rd storm from 2022 with a front shutting off moisture flow to the north.

Worried about another frost/freeze the next two nights. It’ll be close.

Same here, was 53.5 at 7 am, now 47.6/46.8 at 10:30 am with rain continuing. Up to 0.40" in gauge since 7 am and a 0.88" total.
