All Activity

Just for comparison sake 97-98 compared to 23-24. Winter 500mb seemed pretty spot on as far as placement with key features of course intensities varied spring however does have some similarities thus far but not all the same. Should be interesting to see how we continue into summer.

Here was the 500mb pattern from 2/28-5/28 Here is the preceding 3 month period when we were in full swing Nino territory (11/28-2/28) Changes but notably the ridging has indeed pushed further east into the north Pacific so we may start to see a cooling in time of the WPAC? Especially if we do have a decent typhoon season but yet to be seen as of now. Which I would guess we eek out a typical WPAC season given we are transitioning to La Nina status.

Here is the 90 day SST bonkers amount of warm anomalies showing up just south of the Aleutians. This will change over time since there is a 12mb file limit on posts.

have the heater on this chilly night...

Yea the idea should be that an extremely active typhoon season should start to cool these waters but the waters only cooled for about a 2-3 month period (if that) before rebounding quite substantially. I also do not know what it will take for this to break and even more surprising was the fact we were near super levels for an El Nino typically we should have had an above average if not extremely active season, we had what was more of a typical average season if not even a more below average season for the WPAC. One thing of note was that we did not have a lot of strong recurving typhoons last year most were weak when they did recurve so maybe that played a role? In fact we just had our first system form a couple days ago which is close to the later start timeframes we have seen for the WPAC typhoon season. Surprisingly most after some of the extremely active season of strong/super El Ninos. 1st- 1983 June 8th 2nd- 1984 June 7th 3rd- 1998 May 28th 4th- 2016 May 25th 5th- 2024 May 22nd

55 here; winds are wide open.

Bears needed that win after blowing the lead.

Bears blow the dreaded 2 goal lead in the final 90 seconds but pull it out.

A blow out. And Mike V with another OT winner for the Bears.

really hope this verifies! love the nice cool days throughout the summer

49/66 for us. Keep this rolling all summer and I'll be a happy camper.

Ring of fire look though, right? That type of pattern has a persistent deep low in the Mississippi and Ohio Valleys?

how about a 38/19/11 type year?

I’ve read some dumb stuff online in the last 25 years or so that I’ve had access to the internet. I have to say though, that missile strikes on foreign fossil fuel assets to combat climate change might be the dumbest. Maybe the western pacific warm pool would diminish with nuclear winter. lol

Ridiculous

44F and had to close the sliders. Want to keep the 3 sliding doors open and have fresh air everywhere, but it’s dipping under 60F inside. Radiational cooling, and valley air conditioning FTL.

Frankly, it's not that big a deal down this way. Life exaggerated, again.

new phone who dis?

Dallas throwing Minnesota out to the Wolves.

Just landed at DAL after 13 hour flight from BWI. Due to "weather". Terminal so busy we can't park the aircraft. Sitting on apron now. Was diverted to Houston, then things just fell apart. Short story: never get on a flight that I'm on.

56.6 degrees here.

Fireflies are out and about in my area despite the relatively cool evenings https://x.com/juliancd38/status/1796351783415206290?t=qzelMBMpIe3D4RFEsxnTNw&s=19

I can't believe this was still last month, time goes so slowly

I didn’t know. I mean, I’m sure that you’ve said it, but I don’t recall information like that from an icon.

Had a freaking beautiful high of 64 on May 30th! Current temp down to 57.
