Yeah we're gonna need to see this second period...given the backloaded nature of Niños. Us getting our first snowfall on Monday was right on schedule, wasn't it? Are we sure this isn't just the typical Niño? We could end up with 7-8 inches for this week....
But at the same time, what you said about the location of the tpv...basically you said that if the "boundary" were further south those NS waves could dig more to the SS, right? So it's not just bad luck?
P.S..........I don't like Hadley cells. Whenever they're mentioned it's always bad news, lol
