nice and we know what kind of a winter 1947-48 was ;-)

Right this happens in the summer too Not sure why people have an issue with temps near 80, it is still October. Let's save on heating and enjoy the wonderful weather when it can't possibly snow.

ABC and Lee Goldberg now have our highs at 77,77,78 for three days and say the models are playing catch up and lows of 58, 61 and 62

Think this is the last shot at 80 for the year? We've hit 80 before in November (even mid November in 1993).

So this is why we have a classic snowy winter connection to mild Novembers? I have noticed this is often the case, but it often comes after cool Octobers: 1957-58 1960-61 1963-64 1966-67 1977-78 1993-94

17th I think it was a Saturday

westerly winds too, thats heat right to the coast!

awesome I was wondering how long it would be before the 95 record from October 2 a few years ago would be broken

Good point! We see the same lag with la nina after el nino which happen to be some of our best and snowiest winters (1995-96 and 2010-11)

with all these years of la nina is it possible that it could be a strong el nino that acts like a moderate one instead?

yeah heavy rain but slowing down now did you also get over 9 inches in the late september storm?

does it make that much of a difference though? very strong or borderline super? the likelihood either way is to get one big snowstorm for the winter and that's it

For us Pinatubo seems to have had its greatest impact in the summer-- 1992 had a very rainy and cool summer sandwiched between a very hot 1991 and very hot 1993 summer Dont know if the influence of Pinatubo somehow came back for the 1993-94 winter

and these volcanoes are very finicky in impact, it's not like el chichon gave us a lot of snow or cold either and neither did pinatubo except for that one summer

we are talking about this in the el nino thread

so more like a one big storm kind of el nino winter? a la 1982-83 or 2015-16?

remember DuPont dumping PFOA into the water and the only way we stopped them was with a multibillion dollar lawsuit same thing with Monsanto and Roundup and nonhodgkins' lymphoma

sometimes you have to sue people to get things done and fixed and you have to sue companies that pollute the environment suing is our last line of defense against bad people and corrupt politicians and companies lawsuits are necessary (see above) to go after bad people, evil corporations and the like, they are the final check on corruption the best way to stop greed is to take away their money there are reasons for it.... my dad slipped and fell because of a crack in the side walk and he was never the same again (hit his head on the concrete and had fluid in his brain) and started losing his memory after that sometimes you have to sue people to get things done and fixed and you have to sue companies that pollute the environment suing is our last line of defense against bad people and corrupt politicians and companies

at least Sunday looks to be sunny

the GOAT of October

great, the inverse of 2019-20 when it didn't snow all season and we had flurries in May lol

didnt you see snow clouds yesterday lol

exactly what I was thinking January and February will be great in this pattern forget the tucking, this will be like 09-10 with the strong el nino coming in You can already see the further offshore track setting up with the way tropical storms have been way offshore this year. This happened in many of our previous great winters and the tropical seasons prior to them like 1995

it would work in January and February. I have a feeling we have a 09-10 type winter incoming

wow how come this didnt make it up to NYC? the only one I remember in October is snowtober lol
