Time to fire off the tropical thread? (JK)

If we get a period of HL blocking, in a strong Nino a big winter storm is still possible-even the lowlands. So ofc the western highlands could get 'crushed'. They typically get impressive snow regardless of the overall pattern, unless cold air ingress from Canada is completely shut off.

84 was the high today. Nice day, wind could have been calmer.

El Nino is trending on the X. Lots of posts like this. We are doomed!!

Would the mountains in WV get crushed with the storm track or is it even warm at 4000ft?

She coming

Where are the winds? Thought we were gonna see yuge gusts?

^ “Worth noting that while the ECMWF has had a high bias in some ENSO forecasts in past springs, so far the forecasts from earlier this spring are verifying quite nicely with the rapid evolution towards +ENSO. In past bust cases (like 2017 and 2022), the warm bias was already evident by May. That doesn't appear to be the case this time around. Doesn't mean the model is perfect, but there's also no evidence of a major bust this time around.”

I'm wondering at what point do we call our area the New Windy City? I'm surprised at the low dews today...was thinking it would be a humid 80 with the rain chances tomorrow. It goes to show how quickly we can flip flop between dry and humid.

They’re not mentioning that the Euro has had a warm bias though it’s lowest for an actual Nino (few ticks on average with a couple almost perfect). May run has almost never verified too cool. They’re probably not aware of this bias. You won’t be less you study the verifications going back aways like I did. Of course even a warm bias doesn’t mean it will definitely verify colder.

The models are backing off a lot on precipitation. Everything is dropping south. Where is this in the freaking winter.

I know.. ugh. Trying to softwash a 40' tall house in the never ending 30 mph wind is always a real pain in the a$$. Ever since March 1 it's been cold and windy or hot and windy lol

I have to say if anything these past few years has shown me is, if it is labeled drought tolerant it will go into my yard. My front garden of sedums, day lilies and catmint are exploding in full bloom. And my Knock out Rose Bush is covered with buds. Have some Black Eyed Susans coming up in my container. I put them in there so they don’t over spread.

82f for high. Still in denver. Snow stacking up in Estes Park at 10k. 16". Was wet snow in ft. Collins. Sent from my SM-S921U using Tapatalk

Several 30+ gusts today.

Mow #5 for me and a blade sharpening prior to it. I almost blew up my shed, sent sparks into it with my angle grinder, near to my fuel cans. I stopped and gathered myself, and another beer, and all was successful.

We may have a Nino failure if the PDO stays negative................................

might be a dangerous heat wave toward the end of the month

Chilly but dry, beginning to need some moisture here and the extended doesn’t offer much hope. High of 52 today, maybe the last frost of the season tomorrow morning.

I am going to share this post and will add my thoughts to it. Tomorrow will be depend on the development and where the any potential outflow boundaries will setup at tomorrow afternoon/evening. Model guidance continues to show a messy line of supercells to develop across Central MS, right where the 10% tornado risk is currently highlighted in the graphic. The decision to storm chase or not remains up in the air as storm development will be on the edge of the Delta in to I-55 and I-20 area. Best case would be for a supercell to develop to my immediate north and meet it there before sun goes down which would be very doable. Will make the decision tomorrow afternoon as it looks like the storms will be close enough for me to make such a last minute decision.

JFK gusting to 41 this hour. I'm sure a sandblaster on the beaches. Glorious spring on LI. Farmingdale now gusting to 45.

If it's a raging, basin wide El Nino in September, then it's time to just put the coffin in the ground IMO. We might get lucky with a 2016 like fluke, but I wouldn't bet money on it happening twice in a decade.

Well come to think of it that’s true and also true also interesting .

Passed right over K40B. Temp dropped from 70 to 55 F.

Good lord the wind. The ever present howling wind.
