  1. News to me....I checked out after my last blog on like March 9th. I'll do a March wrap up tomorrow and then seasonal wrap up in May...then we're onto 2026-2027.
  2. Yea, I figured it would be COC for CT...up here was a lost cause from the get-go.
  3. I would def. prefer moderate where you are in the mid atl, but up here, I'd prefer weak.
  4. RONI, since ONI is obsolete. I use this for PDO: https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/monitoring/pdo/
  5. I forecasted 2015 to pull that off, Chuck, and it was a failure aside from getting the blizzard right....but I hope we do it one day. I know we've come close.
  6. We've been through that....higher end events are going to leak east. You keep imagining this uber-strong, western biased unicorn...have at it. Yes, strong events are favorable for rouge blizzards, agreed. I called the 2016 event down to the week on a seasonal level. I am talking about temps and NE overall snowfall...only one that was decent for NE snowfall was 1982, which had somewhat of a -WPO.
  7. I could see it perhaps hanging near neutral like 2004 or 2009....23-24 remained strongly negative.
  8. It will absolutely be warmer than this past winter, regardless.
  9. If it's an uber-even over 2.0, yes...we're screwed.
  10. I understand that....you have a preconceived notion of my expectation for the coming winter. All I'm saying is that if El Nino is robust, the PDO will flip. Agree it will be warm, but I doubt that it will be prohibitively so for the northeast.
  11. Okay, you agree with me because I never stated the second half of that. Sounds like a delusion. jk
  12. Okay.....I bet you $100 the PDO averages positive this winter if El Nino peaks at 1.5 or higher this coming fall.
  13. Well, they are correlated....and I feel it will flip with a strong El Nino on the heels of two consecutive -PDO El Nino events.
  14. PDO was only -1.01 for February....I don't get the reluctance to fathom a flip in the face of a strong El Nino.
  15. People saying "I don't see any sign of the PDO flipping"...no shit, we don't see any sign of the El Nino yet. It's like convincing yourself on the ocean that it's going to remain snowing before the low comes closer and the wind flips onshore.
  16. I agree if we approach 2.0, then the PDO will flip.
  17. We'll see. I'd bet against it, but my early guesses are often wrong because they're just that....guesses.
  18. 2004-2005 may be a fine analog if you account for the fact that El Nino will be stronger.
  19. Good all on 2009-2010...that was a slight -PDO......so there was three consecutive prior to 2014. I feel like if we remain negative PDO again, it's going to be more like 2004 and 2009 in that it won't be severely so. I could see something like that.
