It seems like a weird el nino la nina hybrid. I remember several el ninos when we had nice arctic shots that cleared out all the cloud pollution
-
That's the odd thing, the last 2 years, spring has been the least cloudy season. April and May have both been really good the last 2 years.

keep it up and I'll make sure you get 5 posted, I assure you, Randy likes me a lot more than he likes you, he doesn't even know who you are.....so keep doing it and see what happens

The people who are only here for snow aren't real weather hobbyists though, they're just snow hobbyists, which is pretty much any of these ignorant brats with "snow" in their name (with a few exceptions-- they know who they are lol.)

Back with the weenies eh, I'm going through all your posts and weenieing anything I missed, tit for tat as they say.
You've been buried in your hole for a year now, you need to go back down there and stay down there.

Cloudy foggy minds think alike!!

Even when there's no precip it still seems to be mostly cloudy. If there's no storm around where exactly are all these clouds coming from? For example, after today it's supposed to be mostly cloudy for the rest of the week, but there are no storm systems around. Is this because we don't have any strong fronts to clear us out?

I have read a ton of history and all nationalism leads to is more wars and more death. Unification is the only way out of endless wars. The greatest eras of peace on this planet existed when most of the world was under one rule (Pax Romana being one that stands out)

Let them stay in California and the South. They can withstand the flooding far more than we can.

I was thinking about this and I'm sure many/most would agree. We'd give up all those great winters to end the bipolar nature of our winters. In other words, get rid of the variability and every winter should be plus or minus 5 inches of the long term average. No more 40 and 50 inch snowfall winters, but no more 5 and 15 inch winters either. I'd be just fine with keeping the same long term average for snowfall but never getting more than 32 inches of snow and never getting less than 24 inches of snow. The joy of the great winters definitely isn't worth the pain of the bad ones.

I wonder if anything like this has happened before? It's hard to imagine another winter like this one, but maybe if we look far enough back in the records? But the widespread coral bleaching because of the sea temperatures you've mentioned is highly alarming and means that we aren't just talking about warmer SST, the excessive warmth extends right to the sea floor. This might not be going away for a long time, Chris.

1780 - On the coldest morning of a severe winter the mercury dipped to 16 degrees below zero at New York City, and reached 20 degrees below zero at Hartford CT. New York Harbor was frozen for five weeks, allowing a heavy cannon to be taken across the ice to fortify the British on Staten Island. (The Weather Channel) Tony any idea how many days NYC had a low below 0 in the 1779-1780 winter? I think a few days ago it was also around -16 on this date that year.
-
we'll have periods of sun each of the next few days, even if it's just for an hour or two. The sun came out today for about an hour.
-
but how is it a la nina like pattern with so much rainfall?
-
We'll likely get one next winter with a la nina happening after an el nino being one of our best indicators for above normal snowfall.
-
and February in the 80s was pretty warm....
-
There's an even bigger picture here. An NOAA scientist just talked about widespread coral bleaching events being connected to this warming and how they are becoming more and more common and how soon enough we will have widespread coral bleaching all across our oceans because of this unnatural warming and how it has and will continue to disrupt marine ecosystems and at an alarmingly accelerated rate.
-
the sun is out here now! -
The December part makes a lot of sense though, when December sucks usually the rest of the winter sucks too. 1982-83 and 2015-16 were one big storm winters, so they wouldn't really be considered "good" winters anyway. El Nino or not, the next time we have a very good winter, it will have to get going in December. Backend winters are as bad as backend snowstorms.

Same as the Ravens lol, can you imagine fumbling the ball on the 1 yard line in the 4th quarter? If that doesn't happen they win.
-
it hasn't gotten below 17 here
-
Extended fall
-
wow and watch them hit 40C again next summer
-
there was wet snow here for 2 hours but everything cleared out right around sunrise
