    Nope, the pre satelite era biases the MEI towards Modoki....see, this is why all of the most powerful MEI values were obtained in east-based, canonical events.
  2. 40/70 Benchmark
    This. We will know shortly which ENSO ideology is correct.

    Could be the best holiday period pattern since 2009 and 2010.
  4. 40/70 Benchmark
    Watch for a big holiday period event focused over interior...my analogs scream it. Should be first major of the season.
  5. 40/70 Benchmark
    That looks very similar to my December mean composite, but it should get mitigated by the cooler start and finish.
  6. 40/70 Benchmark
    Yes because that Hadley Cell configuration would pop a big Aleutian low due north of that warmest water just east of the dateline, which would pop a ridge near the west coast (also ridging near the pole). This is why folks keep wating for el Nino to couple more and "battle" the -PDO and why I expect the PNA to average somewhat positive this season, regardless.
  7. 40/70 Benchmark
    Yes, I get that...I went over both aspects ad nauseam in my work. However, its folly to ignore the the fact that the atmospheric response is different from past higher-end events.

    Great met, but loves him some warm. His outlook was reasonable, though....pretty similar to mine.
  9. 40/70 Benchmark
    I agree.....2015 is a decent EMI match, but as you implied, the SST dipole and pressure dipoli were much more pronounced in in 2015....WWBs were much more prevalent, as well...which is which is reflected by the MEI and RONI.

    Just east of the dateline is textbook Modoki....you don't want it west of the dateline because then you get more Maritime influence....look at 2006: This in conjunction with descending solar is why that season sucked bum-bum.
  11. 40/70 Benchmark
    Its not, which is part of the reason why no one is calling for a cold winter.
  12. 40/70 Benchmark
    I'm convinced Webber and those folks will never, ever admit they were wrong....DC could end up with 60" and they will argue that it was a classic canonical el Nino because the season was +1 and most of the snow fell in 1 or two events.
  13. 40/70 Benchmark
    Well, this is me being asinine:
  14. 40/70 Benchmark
    Just east of the dateline is not where the strongest el Nino events focus. BS.
  15. 40/70 Benchmark
    Possible, but I doubt it.
  16. 40/70 Benchmark
    I agree since the model consensus has been for a OND ONI peak since like last spring.
  17. 40/70 Benchmark
    Hope not.
  18. 40/70 Benchmark
    I think everyone understands that an identical pattern wouldn't be as cold....however, an identical pattern also would probably produce larger storms with more moisture.
  19. 40/70 Benchmark
    I do buy this potentially having something to so with CC.....also plays into why the more "feast of famine" dynamic in terms of snowfall.....tougher to get great NAO blocks, but when we get them, some of these storms are just savage.
  20. 40/70 Benchmark
    He's usually in the main ENSO thread.
  21. 40/70 Benchmark
    Yea, OND should be the peak....just below super ONI.
  22. 40/70 Benchmark
    I have noticed that Larry has referenced regarding the NAO....deeply negative seasons seem to occur less frequently.
  23. 40/70 Benchmark
    Omega brings nothing to the table....just a troll. @snowman19 I like....little biased with his data presentation, but a lot of us are....at least he adds something.
  24. 40/70 Benchmark
    Get a serviceable month of December in a strong el Nino, and you take it and run.
  25. 40/70 Benchmark
    I will not surprised if we look back on it fondly given some fortuitous timing, which should happen sooner or later....especially with all of the energy available around the globe right now.
