Nothing but warm here by the end of May. Decent signal for -PNA developing days 15-16.. could start hitting 90s. https://ibb.co/0rrnXHG

Looks kind of pathetic now. https://ibb.co/WtRDxQx

Still seems like we have easy tendency for drought.. nevermind the thunderstorm drought that we are in.

Now on MR models it's short lived, and looking to give way to -PNA by D15... The Russia correlation is about 0.20 to +PNA +time.

Right. I think we will see more +PNA, but it gives question as to chicken and eggs, if the cold anomalies started happening in Russia April 2022, through May 2023. About 13 months of some anomalous cold there, correlates to +PNA down the line, but now El Nino appears... chicken or egg.

It just ways of describing the increase or decrease of equilateral trade winds. max has never really been hit. https://ibb.co/m5H8Lch

It doesn't make sense that Strong Nino would be a blowtorch if Moderate El Nino is snowy, if they are based in generally the same area.. Give enough samples and they will both even out.

Posted this in ENSO thread in weather section too: We have had 4 years of +QBO/La Nina since 2008, and 4 -NAO's, but bad overall years for snow. I think this year if we are -QBO/El Nino +NAO's will give us snow.

I feel like we had that a lot in Feb-March. In some months of the Winter NAO correlations with drier conditions 0.5/1, so we actually had a rare conditions of much wetter than normal conditions during -NAO last winter.

Medium range models show a +PNA of some significance occurring around May 12. https://ibb.co/CssytcK I had noticed constant cold in Russia 12 months ago, and this has continued more often than not for the last 12-months. Roll forward research shows that cold, or colder than normal, Russia evens out to more +PNA conditions in the following months(9-12 months). We also continue to run this ridiculous NAO-PNA correlation (+NAO, happens or trends with more +PNA's, -NAO happens or trends with more trending -PNA's.) https://ibb.co/YZ0sccj That will hold until further notice. (I say that because in my observation it has a EC, and imo population- could be wrong, correlation). Let the clouds grow high up in the atmosphere

Well consistency is the name of the game.. no one probably thinks the -PDO is because of -PNA conditions having been happening, and that is probably a more accurate way of saying it, that the El Nino is not right now correlating to +PNA, but -PNA. 65-66 and 72-73 were both El Nino's/-PNA's through the Winter, but that is small sample size although I can say it was right in the heart of that -PDO just to make a future point..

NAO and west-based NAO anti-correlation right now is stronger I think than ENSO. I wonder if -QBO/El Nino (Stratosphere warming signal) will help that flip around, like 09-10. (The way +qbo/Nina worked last Winter makes me think we may do more snowy +NAO's next Winter.)

I would love a +NAO next Winter.. 97-98 and 01-02 both had pretty strong times of -NAO, I think 72-73 too. I think +NAO right now is correlating with -EPO/+pna. More snow in the last 10 years is correlating with +NAO, although by itself it's not a great pattern.

I didn't know they have salary cap room to sign Peters.. I agree, can't have enough CB's in the sport today.

El Nino seemingly more integrated in the pattern now (forecast models, pattern). Usually there is a direct correlation from subsurface to the pattern, but we haven't seen this so much like I would expect Jan-Apr, with a lot of -PNA under warm central-ENSO subsurface. There was something I was tracking where the pattern of the previous year would similarly be oppositely repeated, to like to even it out, and something like that had more impact on what happened than ENSO Jan-Apr. I still think the "-PNA" has power going into next Fall and Winter.

The wind has shifted direction. Cool radar from Va. beach. https://radar.weather.gov/station/KAKQ/standard (These -NAO's keep going to a warmer pattern in the SE ridge.)

I remember the blizzard of '96.. 2-4"! 3-6"! 6-12"! 12-18"! omg blizzard watch.. it will keep going higher. 18-24"!! blizzard warning I thought we would go to 30-36"

It's like a car that doesn't reach its max and putters out gas. The potential is there for +900dm to +1000dm -NAO I think, and when that doesn't happen, when it's not reached, the puttering out SE/EC ridge seems to occur.. capped Maybe the tropical jet stream isn't even that high.. hits a plateau where the ridge runs from south to north.

Just really nice outside. I can tell that we are still accelerating toward some kind of drought/heat dome pattern.

Keep doing this drought busting stuff, and the trees will end up like dogs and cats.

El Nino with -QBO is a 1/8 year type of pattern (best), if you use those 2 variables. https://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/data/indices/qbo.u30.index

Kind of a below average start to the season. It seems that the downsloping trend is holding for now. It may be hard to get those bowling ball lows in the Great Lakes and Upper Midwest going forward, the pattern is ridge north/some type of drought.

I think we are heading toward a hotter Summer. It's been a bit of an anomaly to not have a very above average May-June since 2012. We are also trending this way by looking at the last 3 years.

I think we are trending toward a hotter Summer. These are the last 3 Summer's https://ibb.co/WHB3jnc

The high pressure just isn't circulating cold air under it. On models, it trends to the time of happening, as a Pacific pattern change. The area that correlates is like this. https://ibb.co/pw2HBm8
