  1. Saw that. My question is does that rare +IOD/Nina combo continue through fall? My guess is no
  2. Just a very, very early preliminary look (which means nothing at this point), would seemingly support a La Niña, orientation and strength to be determined, +QBO, -PDO, maybe neutral to negative IOD come fall?, +AMO, high solar/high geomag. Snow cover and ice cover to be determined in the fall
  3. I suspect areas of metro see 80’s next week. Very likely more than once too
  4. Yea and I suspect the developing Nina only serves to reinforce the -PDO
  5. Do you think we keep the very unusual +IOD/La Niña through the fall or do you think it goes at least neutral? Although it’s possible, my guess is that we go at least neutral IOD by fall and possibly -IOD during the fall
  6. Not hard to do now, we have a late August sun overhead
  7. Very confident we see our 1st 80+ degree high temp in the metro area since October by the end of this month
  8. When you look at the synoptic picture (rapidly developing La Niña, -PDO, ++AMO) that actually points to anything but a cool summer, actually points to a SE ridge on roids summer. The high soil moisture does point to wet/humid
  9. Hot is an understatement. Yes it was dry but boy was 2010 a torch summer
  10. Thursday night into Friday morning looks nasty, very heavy rain, high winds. What else is new? The beat goes on
  11. The high school teams here always play their first game the last week of March and without fail it’s always chilly and miserable. My cousin’s little league season started today and it sucked, way too cool but that’s baseball in the northeast I guess
  12. There’s no high latitude blocking to slow it down. Hard sell on 3 days of rain
  13. This wet pattern we’ve been in since the end of the last drought in 2002 can’t continue forever. Law of averages, eventually this cycle has to end, it’s astonishing that its even lasted 22 years
  14. At least back in 2011 we knew we were f***ed once that huge Bering Sea vortex showed up a few days after Thanksgiving. It became a semi-permanent feature that winter and the +EPO floodgates were wide open from the end of November right through the beginning of April
  15. It’s hard to believe that the last true drought emergency we had in the metro area was over 22 years ago (2002). The drought/wet cycles don’t normally run this long
  16. A very dangerous picture is getting painted for this upcoming Atlantic hurricane season. All the indicators right now are pointing to a record breaking season and have been since March….
  17. The only one (besides people who aren’t mets) who was hyping an I-95 corridor snowstorm for this week was JB. He was also suggesting that April, 1982 was a good match. Not surprising coming from him though. He’s been completely off the rails since November
  18. Yep. The CMC 10:1 ratio “snow” maps from Tropical Tidbits that were getting shared and hyped for the simple reason that they showed snow were laughable. They had zero support from any other global or mesoscale model from the word go but people ran with them anyway…..
  19. I sure has, way worse than the GFS. I still can’t believe some mets actually ran with it and its bogus projections for this week
  20. As expected….massive fail incoming for the CMC suite with the snow fantasies it kept insisting on, run after run. Embarrassing
  21. Good luck getting snow in April with those mid-level temps and thicknesses. People need to let it go. It’s been game over for the metro area since 2/17. Thank God this is coming:
  22. A further north version
  23. Some were saying this week’s pattern looked like April of ‘82. Obviously a horrible match
  24. So much for the April, 1982 hype on “X” last week….
