Where's El Nino in the N Pacific?

Just a cesspool like twitter in here, bunch of noise with very little thought. I'll remove April in future updates.

Asterik indicate slight point deduction with late entries. This was the first time it has happened so i'll keep it lenient (I also was late). Going forward I will still send a reminder the day before entry is done and we will go from there. Good luck in June!

I just don't really want to do hottest day contest. Thanks for asking though

Today was colder than Christmas 2015.

No worries we will keep it just a small deduction (barely noticeable), the date snuck up on me as well.

More rain this evening with a current temp of 56 degrees already.

This morning was unseasonably cool. It may well go on to be the coolest morning of the summer. Lows included: Atlantic City: 45° Bridgeport: 48° Islip: 46° New York City-Central Park: 52° New York City-JFK Airport: 50° (old record: 51°, 1997, 2003, 2015) New York City-LaGuardia Airport: 55° Newark: 51° Philadelphia: 53° Poughkeepsie: 41° Westhampton: 35° (old record: 39°, 2020) White Plains: 46° (old record: 47°, 1971, 1984, 1988, 1993) A warming trend will commence tomorrow with highs in the upper 70s to perhaps lower 80s. Thursday should see temperatures top out in lower 80s. Friday and Saturday will be very warm days with highs in the upper 80s and lower 90s. Saturday will remain warm before somewhat cooler air arrives to conclude the weekend. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +2.2°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +1.0°C for the week centered around May 27. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +1.80°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.90°C. The ongoing El Niño will continue to strengthen through the summer. The SOI was -16.87 yesterday. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +0.714 today.

Hopefully something pops up. Some afternoon strong thunderstorms would be nice. It's been a real snoozer since Sleet fest.

What was the total precip that winter in central park? I remember the crappy winter snow wise (5.5" total here) but cant remember if it was wet too.

Good question. Notice the amount of clouds in the sky on an average day. The last few days it was better, but we were really clear in May. A few years ago in February 24/28 were completely clear skies. We are veering towards less precip patterns in the last few years.

I'm really curious to see how the North Pacific High responds. Should be very telling about larger scale things.

As a weather enthusiast, I’m actually looking forward to seeing a true east-based super El Niño in action this winter. I was too young to remember 1997-98. Should be fun to watch

He’s down by IJD in SE CT. This is coming from ORH

Do you have any east wind? How far are you from moosup?

Ignorance really is bliss with the trolls.

Yeah nothing remotely close to haze up here. Crystal clear low dew blue.

This Spring is nuts. Looking at the GOES NE satellite it seems the Jetstream is going backwards for days on end. Stupid clouds *shakes fist at sky*.

Oh man…2018 maybe? One of mine got blight last year. I mudpacked it this spring and it resulted in an ambrosia beetle attack. Unfortunately the beetles attacked the one next to it too. Both are still surviving and putting on new growth for now. But yeah, they’re all 15-20ft. The ones out front that I started from seed are shorter…5-10ft. I have 5 more that I got last spring…they’re in pots. The wild one in the back woods is still kickin. Looks like 35ft tall but it’s tall and relatively skinny looking for light.

Yeah, surface vis is excellant. I can see Sunapee clearly which is 30 miles. There does seems to be a very thin layer of cirrus or something. The Alto Cu is a bit hazy. Hey Brian. How many years ago did we buy those American Chestnut seedlings? My trees are probably near 15 feet tall.

Wow!! Beautiful humid summer day today. High of 88. Storm just came through and dumped a quick half inch. Can feel the cooler air coming in.

wow someone named michsnowfreak is a climate change denier. bones found in cemetery

Im not an ASOS fan either. Needs way more babysitting/calibrating than a traditional thermometer. And it still sucks with melting down dry snow. The old fashioned way is the best imo. My rain, snow, and liquid equivalent in snow are all done the traditional way.

From the looks of upstream tomorrow's fucked too. Mostly cloudy and mild weee I dunno. Maybe the shit streak finally succumbs to DVM lol
