Many parts of the region will see the temperature fall to 50° or even somewhat lower tonight. The temperature will then struggle to reach the lower 60s tomorrow. The mercury will likely return to the lower 70s on Monday. Temperatures could return to above normal levels for Tuesday through Thursday. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +1.8°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +0.9°C for the week centered around May 13. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +1.63°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.70°C. El Niño conditions are now in place. The ongoing El Niño will continue to strengthen through the summer. The SOI was -18.21 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +1.454 today. Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied near 73% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal May (1991-2020 normal). May will likely finish with a mean temperature near 63.9° (0.7° above normal). Supplemental Information: The projected mean would be 1.4° above the 1981-2010 normal monthly value.

48 with the heaviest rain of the day out this way. I put down new seed yesterday; perfect rate of rainfall to get it watered in so far.

I’m tired of our only weather options being Glasgow and Havana.

4.23” last 3 days.

Great Falls was pretty nice today. Full but not overflowing and the trees/plants all looked happy.

The event thus far is largely a miss for the Lehigh Valley. No drought relief. -
They probably think its a deficit to that number but we aren't in danger of running out of water. I guess they take the term drought literally. Im sure one of them will chime in calling me an asshole soon enough

I picked up another .90 today making my total so of 1.65 inches. Very grateful for the rain! -
I can’t understand cheering on 52° and drizzle on Memorial Day weekend, but we do have a mental health crisis in this nation.

The horizon to horizon stream of RX 350s with NoVa tags arrived right on schedule. The lines at the Oakland Wal Mart resemble the 1994 South African election. The sh*tty weather didn't stop the coming of summer age pilgrimage to Deep Creek...at least it is now above 50 with 2.10" of badly needed precip with #DroughtBuster'26. 200 foot ceilings be damned! Looking past early next week, unfortunately things turn absolutely bone dry again. From 117 to 384, GFS has my area with ~a half inch of precip.

After the rain this morning, got sunny out, with a high of 86. A tstorm came through around 1, dumping a quarter inch. Suns back out. Very tropical like today. Nice having some rain again.

I don't understand...rain guage numbers are right there in your back yard. And we have our yearly averages vs. where we are. I mean stuff even a layman can understand that doesn't need a ton of science. So I don't get how you can say it's not real unless as CAPE said it's connected to the other thing.

Brutal today. Nothing like a 50 degree swing in a few days. I hope JJA turns around and we get some consistent heat.
-
Among other things. Ofc there is a connection..
-
Yeoman and 53 have never believed in droughts...I think they believe there's an unlimited amount of water and talk of drought is a hoax.

First drops finally falling

47 degrees and 1.15” of rain. I’m happy with my 70 degree heat today. Some serious nasty weather. Next up, the river will be running pretty high. Which will put a hold on fishing. Been a really inconsistent spring. -
Rain shield all day here.
-
The general public doesn't understand any of this stuff. 'Its raining and my grass is green. Why are you inconveniencing me?'. People are pretty dopey.

Not much additional rain today but plenty so far. Not sure ill make 3" anymore but it's been a nice event
