  1. Agreed. One thing we need to keep an eye on is that this has evolved into a def. modoki look right now....going to have to take another peek at that in about a month before I issue. Saving grace maybe that its so damn weak that it may not eve really matter.
  2. Made my mind up after seeing the Euro update.
  3. I pretty much have my mind made up as to what my primary analog is going to be, but will see what happens over the course of the next few weeks. Part of me just wants to rattle things off early before I leave Friday night, but experience tells me to wait.
  4. Modest la nina intensity amid a negative QBO backdrop argues for that.
  5. All I was asking is what does EP stand for? East Pacific?
  6. Jim, like I said on Twitter...your work is very similar to mine, right down to the cited source...uncanny. Same page, bud.
  7. Well, at least we won't need to mow Yankee stadium...let the elephants graze....
  8. I'm not worried. Don't get me wrong, it sucked seeing that, but it doesn't change my early view on where we are headed.
  9. Raindance said the EPO should not be as hostile as it was last season. He is a great forecaster, but this shit is hard. He also has some favorable analogs, too. Let's see what his NAO formula has...should be out soon. Chuck's is negative. I never said it means it's wrong, but it's pretty tough to forecast the polar domain days in advance, never mind months.
  10. Had the same thing last year...then little by little, they all got a clue.
  11. Bamwx feels as though Euro is too warm.
  12. I'll sell that for now, though its certainly not comforting.
  13. I was just going to say...I like Feb better lol
  14. What does la nina look like? Stronger and/or more west based?
  15. It was hideous last year at this time, too...glad I ignored it. Maybe its right this year, but it has struggled with the tropics.
  16. I have noticed that structure....ie east vs west(modoki) isn't as important in weak events, as there is much more variance due to other exogenous factors......2000-2001 for instance was about as modoki as they come, but you never would have known it in terms of sensible weather....2008-2009 was also modoki and was pretty cold. Then again, 2005-2006 was very east based and yet pretty mild.
  17. 96-97 was cool neutral FWIW.. How about 75-76, 89-90 and 2011-2012?
  18. Nah....met degree taken from the kids' play pen?
  19. It's not all about temps...it won't grow much due to limited sun this time if year.
  20. I just mowed and trimmed for final time on Saturday...will start raking when I return from Africa
