  1. Agree, but it will be interesting to track the trend in the coming years. This morning there was a tornado warning in the Cape Ann area of MA. I am also wondering if more tornado warnings are being issued out of an abundance of caution.
  2. Considering the warming climate I think it is possible that the northeast experiences more tornadoes in the coming years.
  3. Uhmm numerous people are ignoring/'downplaying what has been happening for months.....Some have convinced themselves that every winter is going to be cold and snowy......
  4. below normal snowfall is different than a snowless winter. I consider a snowless winter to be 25% percent or less of normal snowfall.
  5. Same here in SNE. As of Saturday Boston was on pace for warmest year on record and warmest fall.
  6. ..and they are rockin their summer wear...
  7. Earlier today I was in the Framingham, Wayland, Weston area. Remarkable how many trees still had leaves with bright color. More fitting for late October.
  8. ...take a look at what the pattern has been doing for months.....
  9. ...methuen women are tough!!.....wouldn't faze her in the least bit...
  10. Its before 7:30 and I have a mail truck full of packages. We sure it's not December 23rd? Nothing says Christmas weather like a warm rainstorm...
  11. Certainly plays a significant role. .....and it is underestimated by some. Larry Cosgrove has mentioned it is an important consideration when developing a seasonal forecast.
  12. We are going to have to respectfully disagree on biases influencing forecasts.
  13. Play your cards right and Santa may bring you the childrens book and a 6 Pack of Polar Vortex!!..... Edit:...see post below!!
  14. Government agency not a private weather forecasting company or a private forecaster...
  15. Rarely because such forecasts do not generate much interest. And they do not generate website hits. It's no secret that winter weather in general is hyped to a very large degree. "Polar Vortex to Assault Eastern 2/3 of nation".....99 percent of people think Polar Vortex is a specialty drink made with Russian vodka...
  16. It isn't panic at all....just take a look at what the overall pattern has been producing for months...once again there isn't a single sign of a dramatic pattern change....and every year we also go through people insisting it is going to be a cold/snowy winter...
  17. The majority of people that produce a winter forecast are biased towards cold/snow so their bias hampers them to look at things without the bias impacting their forecast(s)...many also downplay the impact of climate change.
  18. You are setting yourself up for disappointment...
  19. That certainly will not be taking place in SNE. I have never seen so many trees with leaves on them. In this area the leaf drop is at least 3 weeks late.
