  1. With a +QBO 90% likely, no less. That with Stronger La Nina favors +AO conditions, and I'm just saying the last time we had that happen it hit 80 degrees in January.. that's kind of a baseline, although of course it could get cooler/colder at times.
  2. Models adjusted more than usual. They had a ridiculous strong 50/50 low signal at 10-13 day lead, that is now a High pressure anomaly on models for the same time. There was also a big N. Pacific Low that was suppose to develop and sustain, and it's pretty weak now. I've seen what happens a lot, is when the upper latitudes don't match what the models show in the CONUS (they never really showed big cold/trough over the EC), something, somewhere will adjust (lately it's been adjusting warm). Euro weeklies have been very little better than trash. I continue to stand by that.. they got January wrong by 4-5 degrees, and now the same thing is happening in late February and March. The LR images brooklynwx kept posting, through March 20th, are going to come to nowhere close to verifying, especially over the Pacific Ocean! NG futures (where the money is) was 5x more accurate all Winter long.
  3. I ended up with less than 1". Really bad call saying that WSW's would go up, up here based on the RAP and Hrr consistently giving 4-6". It wasn't really cold enough in the end, and the precip under achieved a little (here).
  4. Cooled down nicely here in the last few minutes.. snow starting to land. 31F
  5. eh.. we'll see how the backend does, but this seems like a bust.
  6. That is a nasty dryslot working into DC. Still all rain in Fallston. Temperature says 33 degrees. Edit: just started to mix in with snow.
  7. Yeah but the Pacific dominates Only a 0.3 correlation in the South-SE, and it's technically all 3 areas. I'd rather just go to the source..
  8. ENSO subsurface is showing a -3c pocket now in the central region at -200m. In my research/experience, that has a pretty high correlation to the N. Pacific pattern at 0-time (backs the -PNA idea). Plus we are in some strong multi-year states with that 500mb feature in Feb/March.
  9. The main region for PNA is in the N. Pacific Ocean south of the Aleutian islands.. Both, or all 3 images shown so far had a ridge there (-PNA). I don't call what's happening over alaska or gulf of alaska, pna, although the CPC does include that.
  10. Here's 18z GEFS.. just a crazy ridge south of the Aleutian Islands https://ibb.co/9Wycxzf Here's something I posted a few ago, https://ibb.co/ZgvkXCY With a Strong El Nino at the surface, and negative in the subsurface, and now +250dm -PNA appearing, it hits this +correlation, which I have found is better than surface conditions. That's a really warm pattern setting up there on the LR GEFS with the EPO going + too..
  11. Sometimes when the mathematical variability is so strong, it's worth considering. Ideally, weather forecasting should outperform Energy Futures because you would think we have better methods.. they are speculating. but that's not been the case for a while. I'm really surprised that the global models just had El Nino-climo, when we have had such a strong -PNA for the last 6 years, and the El Nino was not correlating with it April-Oct. With that strong 24th -PNA I just showed in the previous post, it looks like we may come in near neutral in the PNA region for February, which is in line with this record streak that we are in.. But the global models had like a -120dm to -150dm +PNA for the month.. just normal ENSO climo.
  12. It's easier to use, save, animate, quick loading time, doesn't go down being a NOAA site. I don't think there is a very big difference between the quality of all the different maps. If something is better, I would use it.
  13. I'd say it's more -PNA/-PDO with a ridge south of the Aleutian islands and trough over Alaska. 12z GEFS was really strong -PNA around the 24th, with this central N. Pacific High pressure. We don't trend toward snow when this. https://ibb.co/4twbnfY
