  1. About as often as it did this year. But even then, we used to cash in on smaller 1-3/2-4” events in setups like these.
  2. Yeah, just eyeballing daily h/l temps it certainly seemed to follow a warm/wet cold/dry pattern
  3. Two great winters for the MA, and one ratter. Could go either way, but I checked IAD temps for DJF 72-73 expecting a torch, but found near normal temps throughout. Deep south got 1 great snowstorm at least. Could have been atrociously bad luck for the MA?
  4. 0.33 today. Hope we get a break from the pollen for a week or so.
  5. 87 for the high. Was digging to prep a new garden…. Sweating like it was June
  6. If anything, it looks even worse than this winter pattern-wise. 72-73 has +ao/+nao, while we had strong -nao twice, neither of which produced for the MA
  7. At least we see warm sst anomalies hugging the US W coast on cfs. Not a bad look at all… just closer to our ideal setup than we’ve had all year.
  8. Not a fan of that offshore W trough, dig that east a little more and we get a cutter signal. Retrograde it west, we get a bona fide Aleutian low in a classic setup. Maybe that’s how this possibility (out of a wide range atm) might evolve?
  9. This could be one of those weird edge cases where the -pdo actually helps us by putting the brakes on the nino from going super. And I don’t think we’ve passed the spring barrier yet… iow I think the models are being too aggressive.
  10. Imagine takeoffs and landings in that. Surely there are delays
  11. Wife is getting startled by the roaring
  12. High wind verified, power flickering here.
  13. Bit underwhelming here in ashburn. The storms missed me, and the wind feels more like an advisory event than a high wind warning event.
  14. Wind starting to pick up. 15-20mph
  15. It’s calm for now but the winds are coming later this evening. 70/55 here in ashburn
  16. Agree this nino is for real, but I hope it doesn’t get too strong. It seems like we get 2-3 more nina years after every super nino.
  17. Better hope we get some (any?) cold air with that. It doesn't have to be "that" cold. Just cold enough.
  18. Good analysis but I don’t think the atmosphere is going to switch modes that quickly. It’s been a nina for 3 years, and it’s not gonna flip on a dime. Let’s see late summer/early fall whether we see a reset of the entire NH pattern.
  19. Doing the Opposite George thing to bring back our snow?
  20. I don’t think we’re getting a super nino. -pdo/-pna will put the brakes on that. Maybe +1.5 to 1.7 at most. We may not even get out of neutral territory once we get past Spring.
  21. At least the -pdo gets reversed somewhat
  22. Technically it did snow, but only for a couple hours and it didn’t stick. And interior NE got 20-40”. So you got the window right. -pna and lack of real cold killed it for the MA
