Stop listening to Joe Bastardi

Likely in large part thanks to the very persistent +EPO since the beginning of September, it’s been relentless. If November also averages a +EPO, it would be a very bad sign. Griteater’s new twitter thread explains in detail:

I see what you mean, massive solar flare/geomagnetic storm going on right now, just saw the news article on it. Supposedly the biggest solar storm and flux in years: https://timesofsandiego.com/tech/2021/10/29/giant-solar-flare-prompts-geomagnetic-storm-warning-for-halloween-weekend/
-
He’s irrelevant, been irrelevant for years. No one takes him, Henry Margusity or Judah Cohen seriously anymore.
-
This time around, the MJO is going to favor phases 4-6 (classic La Niña forcing). You have a very strongly coupled Niña this time around unlike last winter, where phases 1-3 were dominant.
-
It looks like it gets real mild again by mid-November, nothing like October was, but definitely above normal….question is what happens at the end of the month going into early December?
-
March, 2012 was ridiculous. I had to turn the a/c on a couple of days after St. Patrick’s Day. It was in the upper 80’s
-
After their absolutely abysmal performance predicting the AO/NAO last winter, I view all these models with extreme skepticism until proven otherwise. Last year at this time, all of them were showing raging ++AO and ++NAO for Dec, Jan, Feb, Mar……and they were dead wrong, literally could not have been more wrong
-
What are the potential effects of a high solar flux given the current background states? I really haven’t read too much into the solar aspects
-
Judah…..lmfaooooo hahahahaha What do JB and Henry Margusity say? Lol
-
No, you really don’t lol and 10-11 was a 1st year Niña coming off a Niño and it was +QBO lol
-
Once again, courtesy of the WAR, the cold can only progress so far east. Deja Vu of the last few years….the models are way too cold in the extended only to correct warmer the closer we get
-
You have no idea what you’re even talking about, literally none. 11-12 was -QBO also
-
Those SSTs along and off the east coast aren’t just warm, they are record warm. They are going to feedback into the WAR and SE ridge. Also, unlike last year, we have a very well coupled and strengthening La Niña, along with a strong -PDO and -PMM. Any +PNA is not going to sustain itself like last year, any PNA spike is going to be transient
-
@bluewaveOnce again, the models are correcting to the WAR as we get closer to the beginning of November. What once appeared “cold” in the long range isn’t so cold anymore
-
This is exactly why I would be hesitant to predict a cold November in the east. The SE ridge/WAR are feeding off those record super warm SSTs along and off the east coast, a positive feedback loop is in place. I also do not think you are going to sustain +PNA this time around, you have a coupled, strengthening La Niña, a very strong -PDO and a -PMM, any +PNA isn’t gong to be around very long
-
The problem is that some folks on Twitter are advertising that November is going to be a deep arctic freeze. That couldn’t be further from reality. It goes from insanely above normal to normal, maybe slightly below. You need to seed Canada with cold and that will take awhile. When we start November, all the air is still PAC maritime origin, not arctic or Siberian origin
-
It’s going to be PAC origin air until Canada gets seeded with cold, which is going to take awhile. You are going to need extended -EPO to do that. Transient -EPO won’t get it done
-
Some on twitter are in panic mode right now that this event may go moderate and also be a late peak
-
Those super warm SSTs are positively feeding back into the SE ridge/WAR. Given the La Niña/-PDO and those SSTs off the east coast, I think the SE ridge is going to be a big player this winter
-
Mike Masco is Joe Bastardi Jr lol
-
I read that paper, good stuff. The questions now become, 1, after the upcoming recovery, how strong does the vortex become by the end of November/beginning of December and 2, are there more warmings coming down the road?
-
Great post. I’m seeing tweets from amateurs proclaiming that it’s going to get cold, all they see is a +PNA and -NAO and think that means cold….not when all you’re doing is trapping PAC maritime air with the blocks….cooler? Yes. Cold? Not with that setup, the EPO is still +
-
You don’t believe that if it wasn’t for the SSW, that would have been a horrible winter? It saved February
-
The only thing that saved last winter from being a wall to wall dumpster fire was the SSWE in January that gave us 3 weeks of winter in February (2/1-2/22). It was a 3 week winter, the one lone snowstorm in mid-December that was melted down to nothing in less a week, 60’s on Christmas Eve. Nothing at all in January, nothing at all in March. Had it not been for that SSW, it would have been one of the worst winters of all time, right up there with 97-98, 01-02 and 11-12
