    Yea, that is what I figured he meant. I don't think we'll see that in the mean, but definitely possible for shorter windows.
  2. 40/70 Benchmark
    I choose the black tail.
  3. 40/70 Benchmark
    Do you mean the actual model data, or just the bogus tropical tidbits output?
  4. 40/70 Benchmark
    What do you mean, a ridge extending down from the arctic through the west coast, rather than a more traidtional, El Nino-forced PNA ridge?
  5. 40/70 Benchmark
    Were you predicting -PNA for the season, though? What you are referring to is simply misinterpretation of a seasonal chart....I recall someone was telling me that the PNA would average negative. Anyway, NBD...I wasn't trying to call anyone out.
  6. 40/70 Benchmark
    My interpretation of that is volatility.....biased + first half, neutralish to perhaps even somewhat negative second half.....but AO should be negative.

    You can see that NF cold pool go bye-bye, as I was expecting earlier this summer.

    30 Day change:
  9. 40/70 Benchmark
    August should be out early next week.
  10. 40/70 Benchmark
    August isn't quite out yet...May-July: https://psl.noaa.gov/data/atmoswrit/map/index.html

    Well, like you said....we need to give it through October.
  12. 40/70 Benchmark
    Should be in the seasonal mean, but we need to time one during the negative intervals...there should be some.

    BTW, if you have seen the EURO and CANSIPS snowfall output, this appears to be what these models do. Multi-model blend:
  14. 40/70 Benchmark
    Sure, but the question you need to ask yourself..."is it already out of the picture completely"...because if the answer is no, then it will show up this season.

    Agree. I wonder if a neutralish PDO with an El Niño of this magnitude doesn't shift the STJ inward and upward relative to climo for intense El Niño.
  17. 40/70 Benchmark
    Yea, someone in the New England forum was trying to tell me were going to have a -PNA this winter...I was like, find a super El Niño that pulled that off. -AO/+PNA means you can essentially eliminate the bottom dwelling seasons....even 1972 didn't have a -PNA. Now, maybe it will be bootleg, etc...but the season will average +PNA in the DJFM mean.

    What I can tell you based on what has been happening for the past decade is that the error is likely to be with respect guidance underestimating the scope and magnitude of that Canadian ridge, so it's probably safe to assume that the greater heights will extend further to the south and east than most guidance suggests.....which combined with the poor read on the Pacific makes me very suspicious of that trend to shove the lower heights northward on the CANSIPS. This isn't me saying awful winter....I don't think, or want that to be the case, but that doesn't mean that I'm going to don my Frosty the Snowman boxers every time that I post.

    I don't know Wall, so I'll take your word for it. I think most on this board would agree that my only agenda is getting the forecast correct, and placing much stock into a model with such a poor initialization of the Pacific basin, both ENSO and extra tropical, gives me significant pause before seriously considering it's output. This isn't about CC, or how well the model did last year....it's about the fact that it has such an obviously poor read on the Pacific.
  20. 40/70 Benchmark
    So it's going to be too low with heights in the southeast, but nail the northeast and mid atlantic? Good luck-

    Music to my eyes, ears and weenie.

    It's affecting the pattern a great deal in the tropics, probably more so than any ENSO event in history at this time of year, but it's impact in the mid latitudes of the N HEM remains rather meager at this time.

    Output looks okay on satelitewx.
