40/70 Benchmark

.87" today. .05" yesterday, so .92" two-day total.

Worked last year and the year before, so why not...

No, the Snow Advance Index is also the SAI.

Same lol

Hopefully just one mow remaining in the warm season period...hit everything up this weekend....mow, trimming, weeds.....plan on one more in Torchtober.

32.0000000001 and rain here.

You like the summer weather, no? Wasn't any ill will intended....I jus don't care for anymore 80s.

Keep summer there...good place for it. 60.3*

Yea, at the end of the day, that is all that matters. Eastern Indian ocean is game over for all, but even maritime can be serviceable up here.

October does look pretty warm, but yea....still a ways off.

I mean, we all get it....we have known that the QBO was going to be westerly for many, many, many months. I just won't understand why you choose a tweet reminding us all of the westerly QBO that adds so little value to the discussion as 1 of your 5 daily posts. While its not at all wrong, it just doesn't make very much sense to me. Anyway, I don't think the QBO holds a ton of weight....at least as we understand it. You look back throughout history, any there are numerous examples, such as just last season, when the behavior of the polar domain was inconsistent with what one would expect using the QBO state as a forecasting tool. I tend to use it as more of "tie-breaker" factor...like, if I am torn on the AO/NAO and QBO is westerly, sure....lean +. We all know its westerly/+.....have known for months, and its not that big of a deal, anyway.

Perfect...63. #wetake

Ironic that the acronym for the program is "SAI" lol

One down, four to go....

I'm willing to bet that you have posted about the QBO much more this fall than you did last fall.

Yea, same.

Oh, cool

The way things are going for me, it will be a season of huggers that are great from you points west.

This storm was never interesting to me. I maybe in the minority, but a major impact on the mainland US never had much of a chance.

It's on topic....its discussion about ENSO.

No argument on the close part.

I understand that it's probably close. I'm not trying to imply that it isn't. I think the main reason that it's close is due to the fact that strong el nino events can be more hostile than strong la nina. However, weaker el nino events are better and that isn't debatable. I'll crunch the numbers for KBOS sometime this week.

Yea, I don't buy that. Quite certain el nino is snowier here. The vast majority of Boston's snowiest seasons are el nino, save for 1995-1996 and 2010-2011.

Endless summer.

Hit 39.0 this AM 41.2 yesterday
