Winter 26-27 with averaged - NAO . Also. Appears a weakened or displaced PV

I think 95% of us MidAtl/Northeastern would take that all day--sold! Lol

Nice day at the lake beach today in Saratoga. Cleared out about an hour or two ago. Almost time to go to treehouse brewing and grab a beer

it has but some act like its been 90 plus for weeks with high dews.. it really hasn't been that bad other that one crappy week

I think ORH only averages something like 3 90+ per year? it has been warm. Not debatable

Yea, I know it's biased towards stock ENSO, but it makes sense to an extent if the warm pool does slosh east somewhat.

We had more MC influence in 2023 for an east-based pattern despite Modoki like SSTs, but I wonder if we don't end with more Modoki pattern this season despite SSTs looking east-based due to the warm pool being tugged eastward a bit.

I think bluewave has pointed out the last major seasonal forecast hit was the JMA in 2013. I do have bad memories of the constant trough over the EC that seasonal models were showing in the Summer/Fall 2023 though.

Anyone notice the JMA 2m temps for next winter? interesting... Looks Modoki.

Worcester hasn't hit 90 yet this month?

It does correlate with following Winter NAO. Right now the Atlantic SST index is slightly negative Here is what you're looking for (default of map is positive phase, with both sides considered) Notice the Atlantic tripole. That's a high correlation for SSTA.

^Finally getting that El Nino below average temps around the Great Lakes

Not enough attention is being paid to the spreading cold blob in the North Atlantic. What it means for us, I don't know. But fear not, I have my eye on it.

ya its well above but only because of that one crappy week.. it hasn't been constant

Might be another -AO vs +NAO type of scenario, but it's still early. Stronger El Nino going forward might disrupt the consistency over the Arctic, which is imo Solar related.

I would take that. I'm thinking maybe one solid month of -NAO.

Should be interesting to see how closely we follow 2015 when the QBO switches. I agree that it's the best ENSO/QBO combo. 23-24 and 72-73 look like good ENSO/PDO matches, although this one will probably be a stronger Nino. And of course 1997 is taking the lead in the subsurface. Next year we will start descending into more of a Solar Min.

Since the Solar max in 2024, 3 straight Summers, or in this case early Summer, has had big time cold over the Arctic 60-90N relative to the global warming. I'm thinking that we are pretty close to 2024, 2025 so far.

Saw the rain map on wral...once again...big totals east and especially west. We got screwed yet again

1972 and 1982 best for solar and 2015 best for QBO.

Longest day of the year tomorrow!

Absolutely perfect Summer day. Acceptable temperatures, no humidity & a refreshing breeze!

That monster warm blob has caused nothing but havoc with winter in the past several years in the northeast and mid Atlantic. If it takes a super ElNino to slay it while wrecking this upcoming winter in the process, so be it.

Picking up some LEMP's on my am frequencies. Definitely things trying to happen to the north from my viewpoint here in mechanicsburg. Sorry for the reflection in the picture.
