CAPE

GEFS persists with this look for early March. Weak signal for frozen with advertised temps slightly below average. GEPS has it to a lesser degree, but the EPS doesn't like it.

We just cannot know.

I like his enthusiasm. I try to be optimistic, but he outdoes me by a lot lol. He will learn and become jaded like the rest of us older fucks.

They suck. When the MJO never progresses east of the MC for more than 5 minutes, it isn't much of a Nino.

Just bring me a fresh pure Nina, with some periods of cross polar flow, and I will take my chances. Beach chase, whatever it takes. Can always go north or to the western highlands for snow in any winter, regardless of ENSO.

But this Nino was impotent. Any 'hangover' would be pretty lame.

The weeklies have been fucking with us for months with these favorable h5 Nino-ish looks. With one or 2 brief exceptions, it remains a unicorn. But yes come late March, we will probably get a blockbuster slow moving Miller A with copious amounts of cold rain. Maybe we can all meet up At Canaan.

Mosquitoes are a different story. Because I have a seasonal woodland wetland on my property, Spring mosquitoes are like clockwork, unless we have a super dry Winter/early Spring. To avoid an unmanageable swarm that can only be knocked back with malathion, I have to larvicide in late March, and then I hit it again a few weeks later for good measure. If I do that, I won't see a mosquito until those invasive Asian Tigers show up later in Summer. Those bastards seemingly don't require any water to breed(they do, but very very little).

I do it when its dry, but once you spray and the insecticide dries, if it rains a few hours or a day later its fine.

I dread bugs every year. I use this. Spray it around the perimeter of the house- along the foundation, door sills etc with a garden sprayer. I start in mid March and do it every month or so. Has a long lasting residual. Once it dries its not harmful to humans. You can spray it inside- can be used for bed bugs. Good shit. https://www.diypestwarehouse.com/products/suspend-sc

It was 2018.

You should start the thread. Can't wait to see the title.

That's the Philly forum, and it does have a banter thread. I think he is talking about the Upstate NY/PA forum. Either way, that won't work here.

You are right, but you aren't going to convince him. Give up lol.

Zero. Idiom. You really take everything you read here literally lol?

We can flip a coin on that one. In all seriousness, I enjoy trying to locate potential in the LR, but it is high risk/low reward. I don't want a storm named after me. Look what just happened to PSU

This would be prior to that. I got the 28th through the 3rd.

Moved the post to the other thread. I guess I mistakenly put it here lol

Early March h5 look has improved some on the last few runs of the GEFS, with a temporary PNA ridge going up and a wave tracking east under a Hudson/Baffin ridge. Might be a chance here.

12z GFS snows on us(mostly just south).

0z EPS indicating some changes in the Pacific with hints of a PNA ridge developing at the end of the run. GEPS is similar. Lets see how persistent this is, and if the GEFS trends that way. Not sure how sustainable it would be with the MJO forecast to emerge near the MC.

They have been depicting the classic Nino look with an Aleutian low, lower heights across the southern/eastern US, and NA blocking since late November for mid Jan-Feb-March. Maybe they finally get it right now?

Oh it can happen here. I had around 8 inches on March 20th 2018. The St Patty's day storm in 2014(I think) was another one- temps fell into the low 20s by mid afternoon with 6" of snow on top of ZR/sleet.

Unless there are some significant changes with the location and timing of the currently depicted key features, this is a mild storm with cold coming in behind. 50-50 High leading in? Locate the thermal boundary..
