    Worst at BWI was 22/23 with .2". Lol I wasn't living there, thank God, but it was no snowfest up here either. 72/73 was 2nd worse at 1.2", which remember well and which turned me into a full blown weenie as we had 2 WSW that yielded nothing and hit ROA to ORF. At least 1", if not all, of that 72/73 snowfall was an arctic front in 2/73. Lol if anybody up north wonders why I am the way I am when when it comes to snowfall, just find the annual snowfall numbers from BWI from 1972 thru 2019. The mental trauma is epic.

    Yep. Bwi had 6 or 7" on a Sunday night in December 1983 that wasn't expected. It hit Phl similarly I believe. 97/98 was a dog at Bwi with a couple inches for the season. My current location totalled around a foot for the 97/98 season.

    That and 6 hours of nearly nonstop thunder snow imby...along with the 4" that fell between Noon and 1pm. Lol

    How does using Jan-Mar look? My guess is that Nov & Dec have the greatest +anomalies, but I could be wrong of course.

    Yeehah!

    So you've gone over to the dark side too, ehh? Lol

    Cfs2 has been coming in along those lines too in recent forecasts fwiw.
  8. mitchnick
    Yes, I understand. But I found it interesting because Enso 4 anomalies and SST are both cooling, Enso 3 and 3.4 anomalies and SST are both warming, while 4 temps are cooling while anomalies are warming.
  9. mitchnick
    Interesting how despite the 1+2 positive anomalies, the actual temperature of 1+2 continues to drop.

    Looks like the Cfs2 has maintained October with the last strong WWB based on this attached 800/850 chart and plumes (not attached.)

    Papers by people who have an agenda or financed by those in a position to profit? Idk, just asking. I find it hard to believe anything I read when comes to any issue that's been politicized. And even when results are true, mundane results can be hyped or sensationalized to create a false impression of importance/urgency. Like making a big deal about the rising of a few tenths of a degree in a very small portion of the Pacific off S. America when the record was 29 years ago. I mean if GW was so urgent, it wouldn't have taken 29 years to beat the record by a few tenths of a degree. That doesn't strike me as a "rapidly shifting climate."

    My take is that we're .1 or .2 warmer than 1997, some 29 years ago, and despite the warming/warnings, neither the world nor mankind has ended as a result of GW. Enjoy the weekend all.

    Good thing you chose meteorology over politics! Lol

    I'd consider a rain changing to a minor snow accumulation this December a victory. And that's coming from an eternal optimist.
  15. mitchnick
    I not talking about effects now. I'm talking about how things go come October and November which would give a better clue than a few days at the end of August/early September. That was the original subject of my post.

    Getting a heck of a light show down here from that Harrisburg area cluster.
  17. mitchnick
    Same here. I think the I95 folks haven't been as lucky, or unlucky, depending on whether you like to mow grass <which I do not!>

    Actually, I'm with you. I get Chuck's position as he's expressed his concern several times over the the main Enso thread. But I just think it's a little early to be concerned about it. We need to see how the Niño develops and when it starts to fade, then we can worry...and with the best of them too! Lol
  19. mitchnick
    I luv ya' Chuck, but come on. A few days of weather the end of August/early September really can't be tied to the upcoming winter. Coincidence? ...at best, but nothing more.
  20. mitchnick
    I believe most modeling has it peaking in November, faster than 82/83 & 97/98. If that's what happens, an earlier peak, it doesn't necessarily have to exceed those years. It still could, but it's not a given. The faster it has developed, the faster it fades? Idk, just sayin'.

    I wouldn't call it a head fake. I envision something more gradual with full tilt a month+ later than usual. But I could be wrong, soooo...

    In case you didn't experience or forgot what January, 1994 cold was like, enjoy this TWC rerun. You only hear music, but check out the forecasts and obs. Hard to believe we kept getting screwed with the zr and ip for most of the high precip storms.
  24. mitchnick
    Traditionally, the Niño conditions do start to show themselves come September, but they really haven't shown themselves this summer yet either with cool temps. Though there have been/will be a few flashes of Nino, but not like usual. The -PDO and Niña base state have been hard to shake off. We're going to have to sit tight and wait until October or November.
  25. mitchnick
    Cfs2 has been advertising a drop in the anomalies for about 8 days too, give or take, fwiw, before a resumption of warming and November peak.
