What doesn’t help is that Webb has been known to call people out who challenge him. Last week he was running rings around the people doubting torchmas in the east screenshotting model runs that showed muted warmth in our area and below normal in New England. Flash forward to now and looking at the 7 day on Google for DC it’ll be AN but it’ll be low 50s instead of low 60s which was forecasted a couple days ago.
ENSO thread has effectively cancelled the cold shots for the last few days of the month and are advertising January to play out like it did in 2020 and 2023.
Question is will the tune change 2 weeks from now or will forecasters string us along with "not too late" pieces until it's February and we're staring down a week of 70s?
ENSO thread has transitioned to last rites, Philly is transitioning to last rites, Our med/long range thread is transitioning to last rites, NYC is hanging by a thread, NE isn't far behind.
I mean January is 2 weeks away, prime climo window starts in 4 weeks. Could it turn around by then and the models won't pick up on it until it's closer?
