  1. General warm up as the PNA becomes more negative going forward. Looks like the warm spots may sneak in a few 70° days. But the highest departures should miss to our north. So areas especially further west may be able to hold the cold departures for the month. EWR….-4.3 NYC…..-3.1 HPN……-1.3 JFK…….-2.1 LGA…..-3.0 ISP…….-1.0
  2. 41° here in SW Suffolk with some frost only on the roofs.
  3. Heading into our next cool down behind the cold front. Back to the 30s tonight for the usual colder spots. Then we warm up near 70° for the warmer spots over the weekend into next week.
  4. The cold departures get much smaller east of the Hudson this month. NJ has had some of the coldest departures in the area. More cold this week centered west of NYC will enhance this pattern. Then models indicate a warm up later in the month. So we’ll see if the cold departures can hold especially east of NYC with the coming warm up. EWR….-4.6 TTN….-4.2 HPN….-1.0 LGA….-2.7 JFK….-2.1 ISP…..-0.6
  5. Big pattern change coming up to warmer after this week as the PNA reverses and we get back to more of a La Niña SE Ridge.
  6. This was the 9th coldest first 2 weeks of October at Newark with more cold to come this week.

  8. Yeah, record Southern Greenland blocking lead to the record heat and melt for September.
  9. It was a near record positive AO for October. But the wave break produced very strong blocking over the EPO and PNA regions. So we were much colder than usual for such a strong +AO pattern. That’s why our sensible weather is often driven by a combination of teleconnections rather than just one exclusively. The AO and NAO blocking will increase day 6-10 as another wave breaker storm cuts through the Great Lakes.
  10. It will be interesting to see if we can get our first cool October since 2009. Newark October temperature departures 2022…..-7.9….so far 2021…..+6.9 2020….+1.5 2019…..+3.8 2018…..+0.8 2017…..+7.2 2016…+2.3 2015….+0.6 2014….+2.7 2013….+3.0 2012…..+2.2 2011……+1.5 2010……+1.9 2009…..-0.8
  11. The blocking that produced the record low maxes this week was Pacific dominant. But the storm that cuts this week will cause a west based Atlantic block. So this more Nino-like October pattern continues as the North Pacific warm pool is overriding the La Niña signal. The La Niña SE Ridge /WAR has been the default pattern since the super El Niño. Cooler fall patterns have become non existent before November in recent years. November has been our only month with record cold for a while now. So this cooler October pattern would be our first since the Modoki El Niño in 2009 if it can hold.
  12. Unusually strong blocking like the models are forecasting following the wave breaker cutter this week.

  16. Great job from the statistical Arctic sea ice modeling team. The early June forecast was just a little on the low side but still good for such a long lead time. It corrected higher as the months went on. So another September average extent in the 4s.

  18. That North Pacific record warm pool is producing classic October El Niño 500 mb pattern instead of a La Niña. October El Niño composite October La Niña composite
  19. The Euro the has the next strong cold front later next week with another opportunity for rain. We may even get a bonus wave break to produce a -NAO to join the -EPO/+PNA.
  20. Strong cold front coming up for the weekend with 70s today falling to the 30s and 40s by Sunday morning.

  22. The best we can do is identify which competing warm pools may pushback against the canonical ENSO expectations in the new era of ongoing marine heatwaves. In the old days, it was usually just ENSO and whether the NAO would be positive or negative. Now, a new layer of record SST warmth has added to the complexity with record SSTs in both the tropics and subtropics. So this is why seasonal model forecasts can be low skill when models don’t know which warm pool or pools will dominate.
  23. Impressive for Newark to get two record low maxes in a row. This is the first two consecutive records since the Memorial Day weekend in 2021. So the typical warm October La Niña pattern is getting overpowered by the North Pacific warm pool and more Nino-like +PNA.
