Typhoon Tip

Finally.. .some acknowledgement that the greater ambit of sport's media and fan base seemed desperate to hear: ..

It wouldn't get clear of the 60s in that look underneath... That high draped and stalled ...banked N-E of us means a steady unrelenting cool feed beneath the 850s, from what I saw ... pretty much D3 right out to the end of the run. It's actually a repeating motif for these global numerical models since June really. They keep trying to over the top large ridge signatures, while surface anticyclones, favoring N routes ... keeping it colder at the surface than one would think looking at the geopotential medium. We really never saw a western U.S. heat ejection come around on a continental conveyor this season even once. July just up and end up cool anyway... But, this pattern coming in is doing it again. It's a like the framework for big warmth, that is not outfitted with a building. The June version of that might have been why we were historically warm that month with only two pedestrian heatwaves. It kept the days relatively cool compared to what they could have heated to, while the nights couldn't bottom out. This appears to be a pattern going back to mid summer, only doing so with weakening solar input. Something like this...

Mid/next week depends on the placement of the surface high. Euro camps wants to situated its ballast N of BUF-BOS axis by enough distance to imply flags wobbling GOM "warmth" all the way to NYC. GFS' camp on the other hand situates the high pressure more directly overhead. That would suppress said flag wobbling and allow first half of the days to get relatively warm before more of a sbreeze boundary. It's all going to change, but taking the overnight verbatim. On a personal note, ... I'm not feelin' winter this year. I just don't want it. I think I may be relocating to Arizona, and finding an off-grid up among the sage and tumble weeds, so I can spend out my pointless existence utterly alone like your God is forcing on my reality anyway.

Is that really why, though? I read an interesting assessment article that addressed why some species went almost a full month earlier than normal last year. That was certainly true here N-central Mass, but spoke about the Great Lakes and southern Ontario as well. Anyway, they were discussing that the growth season was "too efficient" in sugar maple species, and no coincidence ...the maples around my town also went by Sept 20... I had lived here for 8 years prior and every year, the big canopied maples peaked around October 10. Anyway, the 'too efficient' model: Trees can only redirect so much solar energy into chemistry and life, and once that quota/limitation is reached, certain 'chemical machinery' in the production/sustaining of green pigmentation halts. That actually 'intuitively' matches what happened at least imby and surroundings - so take fwiw. But many trees that were patented saffron orange in pallet were not only three weeks early, they turned yellow instead. You may be entirely right about hydration playing a role, too.. but I wonder if there was other factors. Also, the Oaks were as dependable as old oaks. Despite all these other observations, ..those didn't deviate. I mean nothing seems able to deviate the timing of that particular species. Cosmic Ray Bursts that incinerate the Ozone layer and irradiate all life off the face of the Earth ... oaks trees will change at the same time.

Probably need to consider that late mid range look in the GFS off the SE U.S. coast. That's -NAO incarnate with that easterly flow setting up. It's a region of enhanced cyclogenic properties in having warm easterly theta-e long fetch piling into a region with relatively cooler anticyclone ..stalled and anchored over New England and the lower Martime. A slowly evolving cyclogen that gradually phase transitions hybrid sas some climate presentation to go with theory. .. for now, most favorable region is S of the Va Capes and NE of Tal. FL The 006 z GFS has the same sort of cyclogenic synoptic evolution, but actually pulls a real TC into the mess of it. Regardless, all models indicate the evolution of a large lower troposphere blocking anticyclone N, with that eventual inverted trough and easterly flow into that region.

Very similar to a late April/May behavior...with Sunday trying so hard to warm up, but then a BD cuts under and the continental warmth instead curls up through the Lakes and Ontario, while NYC-BOS get hosed. Maybe in a spatial-conceptual sense it's like passing the circulation back off summer and through transition season favors that behavior. 00z GFS Wed and Thursday looks like utopia weather.

Yeah... thumbing through the runs, the EPS has warmer than normal heights from D3 to the end of the run, but idiosyncrasies in the flow structure itself doesn't lend very well to warmth on the skin. It may be just like you said, it may be elevated "relative" DP on SE/E flow nights, and days held down to the 60s.

And yet +6" of rain per month, like we've gone through (ave) over these last 60 days. So much for that climate base, huh. Let's see if October and November and December aggregate a foot to 18" of water or whatever in the fck-and-change it was. Better yet...let's do that, ...then have it get bone cold in Jan and February with 0 ... man,that'd chap some asses around here.

I don't know why y'all keep up with this idiocy, never seeming to ever glimpse an awareness as to its utter futility. You simply cannot, particularly in this social-media realm, succeed in any attempt to influence one another with your own subjective opinions - we are not a 'fashion and fad' engagement, where that is ever possible. But ...since I am a moron, which uniquely qualifies me ... I will throw my two-cents into the fray here ... DP are only a problem if your scrotum sticks to your side-walls. Or, when you stand up off a cheese-dawg's pleather sofa from circa 1979, and the backs of your thighs sound like your pullin' and length of ducting tape. Or just having a tendency for your shirt to peel away from your shoulder blades. ... If someone 'wants' these particular sensations ? ...well, to each is his or her own. But they are fetishes that do not - most likely - share in the same voice with the canvased popular opinion to put it nicely... ( You wonder what sex is like with people who do - ) Now...there is a narrow range where a positive anomaly DP can be enjoyable. Like last week, when the streets were dry, and the temperature was 75, and the DP was 68. The wind blew caress around with light zephyrs and wafts, and it was both cozy, but also felt like dawn on a tropical island - well before the heat sets in. Something about that narrow range is pleasantly submerging - like being in a tepid pool, or walking into the ocean off a Fiji beach, where the water and the air are indistinguishable.

Mm hm.. its that old wives tale called Science. Lol. - just kidding there, in mangling your post buuuut - The present Populist ideology has flipped the script and managed to make the "wives tale," science. ( The backhanded indictment was certainly intended: Populism tends to propagate along by f'ing moron commoners ) And in like vein, during this attempted coup de etat over intelligence, rationalism and enlightenment, science has become the new Zodiac method. People would rather now look for 'she loves me, he loves me not' means, anything, to feel better when the science methods predict she or he does not - in the proverbial sense. Obviously I'm being whimsy with turn of pen here... but the reality is, some species do interim benefit from climate change, while ironically ..the whole system is in forced modulation - usually at the expense of those species that do not. Unfortunately, warming connotes wasps and mice are among those that flourish. As do ticks bearing pathogens that make Covid look like a head cold ... Or the huge list of migrating species sent at diaspora, because their own regions no longer support them. That can set off an ugly negative longer view, too, where the escaping biota enters the new region, but encounters no natural imposing factors ... They subsume the new ecology... etc... etc... over produce, then die.. Leaving the new region barren for having wiped out the indigenous species in lieu of toxifying their own longer term prospects. That's the simplified version of course, but in essence, true. It's an ugly, ugly thing, destabilizing. Anyway, some wives tales actually have an explanation - science substantiates them. Like, "Red sky at night, sailor's delight; red sky at morning, sailor takes warning" This yore actually has merit in a predictive sense. By virtue of the fact that the sun rises in the east, and storms "tend" to approach from the west, that means that as the corpuscular rays tip over the horizon, they will illuminate the under cast of the encroaching ceilings, casting them in auburn hues and salmon- yellows, and saffron fires. It's basically 'Hurricane LSD" approaching. Ha ha. While in the evening, by virtue of the storm leaving east, exposes the under cast of the ceiling to the last rays of the setting sun ...and the same illumination artwork sets the sky ablaze. That means at least for awhile, fair and favorable conditions are en route. The disgusting mice to maggots realm of biota wriggling the earth strikes me as a pretty easy Climate Change suspicion. I noticed actually this has been happening over the last 10 years. With increased rodentia and weird bugs I'd never seen before. Maybe the latter, creepy insects have always been around; it's their increasing numbers merely exposing their presence.

Too much risk... History has too oft and repeatedly demonstrated that humans do not cede control ( ultimately, their sense of power) back to democracy at the other end of those thematic arcs. It may just be 'semantics' but the use of the word 'authoritarianism' is too absolute. Semantics aside, it still is a philosophy designing no necessary room for interpretation or negation - perhaps not during the crisis management, itself, but of most importance delimits the acquiesced societal system a very necessary monitor, checks and balances, ... but most importantly, escape plans. Virtually every "desperate" sovereignty in history, that perceived systemic failure so dire, so unavoidable as to have only one pathway to its salvation: through the voice of the loud 'angel,' discovered the hard way, the angel was dark. This leitmotif is everywhere across history; it's just a fact of humanity. It's what turns the pens and strokes the brushes throughout the spectrum of arts we use in muse whether mocking statesmen follies, or conceit our Nationalist celebrations. You know ( for muse), it's really a lot like the arc of "Senator Sheev Palpatine" from the "Star Wars" saga - it was like predicting the future? Just like those disaster films of the mid 1990s seemed to eerily homage the fall of the Trade Towers - the western world's 'Towers Of Babylon.' We are collectively in tune, though our fears cannot often be so codified. There's still 'something out there.' It's unsettling and potentially wicked. And whether it is coherently definable, whatever that is ... ( you gotta unfortunately think 'vibe' ), it still triggers the imagination, becomes the stuff of dreams to the macabre of canvas, to the thrill of cinema. Being in touch, doesn't always mean being able to touch. But back here on Earth.. if history can provide any guide - and oh no, ... humans never repeat the past - perception, however valid or not, of calamity so extreme enters the dark lord. You know, as a possible ... indirect sort of support for the collective 'sense' aspect, consider the last 10 years and the wave of Populism that's tsunamis'ed around the developed word. That's how the village idiot, with lots of money and a feckless morality rose to be in charge. Not just here... but over in Brittan. These are fear induced acquiescence, because in times of uncertainty and looming specters, that's what humanity does: it shrinks its flower and closes up like a daisy in a spring snow. And inside their petals they are insular, traditional, and safe.. As difficult as it may be to solve this problem, authoritarianism cannot be the answer. There must be another way.. Or, we may perish for either recourse. Doing nothing = death. Authoritarianism = inevitable wars as that escape = death.

42 .. 44 most sites within a couple clicks for the coldest so far. I'm thinking 37 .. 38 tonight out around the rural countryside for some car top soft (mix) frost and very cold water depending which side of the upper 30s. Typical climo achievers will probably bottom out 34 Shot across the bow air mass. However, it is very localized in the synoptic-relative scales. It's really like a "tuck" scenario, but doing it in the 500 mb circulation manifold. Quite likely a "benefit" of the -NAO. But it's all contained right over New England, as though something really really wants to enable the using social media into dopamine nostalgia, if not sticking their heads in a paper bag like a cat hiding from a tail-puller while it's entire ass-end is exposed. To the cat, all they see is the reality and faux safety inside the bag. Only here, people are ready to argue it's over - whatever that means. I mean, summery pith heat? Yeah, that was gone weeks and weeks ago... But an above normal sea all around, and not very autumn migrant, that is your ass end. Sorry, ..this isn't picking on anyone sentimentality - it's me hating it really. I don't like endless vague indian summer falls that recurve hurricanes "against climo" like this year is doing. That's the other gripe ... wtf is Sam doing that track into a -NAO field? It's the narrowness of this stupid "tuck" shit going - that trough is bobbing straight S and out around NS ( that close by..) the mid levels vectors stay south. I mean, that's like needing record breaking to keep the Lions losing by way of a 66 yard historic field goal - what need' to happen to keep a region butt boning tries patients ( commiserating with cane enthusiasts here - ) .. otherwise, Sam 'should have' ended up around the outer Bahamas. The pattern looks incredible boring moving forward for at least a week ...maybe 10 days. Maybe climbing modestly abv normals as the time elapses. Good for ogling Nature's artistry ... That's something. Euro stalks Sam S-SE of Nova Scotia on this last run - hmm... perhaps an homage if not correction to the above weirdness. -NAO with bee-line obsessive ass-haulin' recurved canes is anti-correlated. Be that as it may... maybe the Euro's like, "woa, woa. Wait. Ah. I don't know guys. I think if we want torment and asshole toward storm enthusiasts, we should really rather stall Sam - that way we don't violate pan-dimentional physics, while simultaneous taunting.." I figure it's just a matter runs before the other guidance get that memo and agree. Otherwise, it's watching the Patriots maximize the possible extent of humiliation and embarrassment in front of the most telegraphed global specter generated millions of eyes since the Great Tunguska Blast of 1908. Meanwhile the Red Sox relentlessly guide their way out of the playoffs by losing to the two teams in the League that are holding up the bottom of the cellar floor. Have a nice day

Zactly echoing my own fan base warning, above … over along Rt 1 there’s a billboard that now audaciously informs, ”The OWL is no longer wise without his GOAT”

Heh Jesus You ever think about it …the number of bacteria on earth is estimated to be around 5,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000, and basically an uncountable vastness in viruses. They can be found everywhere from the top of the Himalayas to deep in the planetary lithosphere. And we think we’re ever sanitary. Masks and OCD hand washing … whatever Reality check: Earth is no different than a sewage cistern

what was the season total snow map in that winter ... ? I may be wrong, but I thought like SE VT and S NH and up along Rt 2 weren't really hugely snowy. It was a mostly a coastal winter I thought.

someone, some where ... will put a 100 bucks down on the Pats over in Vegas, and when the Pats exploit Tampon Bay's number 28th "stanked" defense and pull off the improbable, kids'll go to college

Right ...we had 30" after compacting by weight at entry into the cutter episode that winter, and the first claimed 15"... then the 2nd, 10" ...then the 3rd, 5" ...leaving essentially zero level. Banks were at least brown and black lol

Well... save for 3 weeks of complete snow pack annihilation in the middle. It really wasn't end-to-end. But, that said ...it was majority not doubt.

Mm... I tend to agree with F*cker and Spaz ... My impression of their general take fits best with my own memory over the last 5 .. 7 years. In short, the organization made it hard on the QB. The Patriots were stingy in putting the pieces around what is likely the best QB in the history of the game...beginning ~ 7 years ago, and it was a motif of stinginess that seemed to only to get worse - almost like "souring the milk" began to then cottage immediately after the deflate-gate. To me, that all means, 'team to encourage out' out said franchise QB. There's too much odor of professional, and ego, grind-smoke during and since that era. Plus, TB was asserting a lot more control (due to intangibles and this that and the other thing ) over an organization that is run by a ego maniac ( most likely ... arrogant at minimum and couldnt stand it ) ... that's just when the marriage entered divorce proceedings. - the evidence is difficult to ignore .. ... the organization made it difficult for the QB. The "why" in doing so, could be boobery at an organizational level, but all things being equal ,...mm, I suspect it was a calculated method (longer view ) to take back control of the company. Unfortunately, they are draining all that cache they built over 18 years of traditional winning, because .. heh, fans have short memories. The more these weeks tick by and they put out a product that is frankly excruciating when not embarrassing to watch, they are going to get hurt by that. But also, legacies are on the line now because the more this goes on, the more this looks really, really bad for management above the field, all included. Particularly when the talent squeezed out has a super bowl ring since.

1995-1996 appeared to be a heavily -AO/-NAO influenced, which are source/forcing that are disconnected from the Pacific in the "direct" modulate sense. There is probably an indirectly coupling with the PNA to the NAO, as argued in negative correlation; the wave dispersion transmitte down stream --> there's non-linear ( transitive ) wave breaks that occur that sends the NAO ridging into form. ...The general neg correlation used to be demonstrated in the CDC matrix/correlation table. Unfortunately, that source may not even exist anymore. There was a budget crunch imposed by the last administration's sweeping coup d'état attempt by undermining institutions in general - they were definitely going to try and kill any source with the word Climate, while making America great again. Anyway... the coupled modulation on whatever the Pacific sent, after the lag ...makes it difficult to know how much of the Pacific really contributed, when the -AO only partially shares domain space with the NAO and thus so is also in partially in disconnect. But the AO appeared to send/load the Canadian shield with or without the EPO at times, and then the NAO helped bleed that south. In fact, according to the monthly means ( which is an average, granted - ) the AO was more anomalously depressed than even the NAO, which is lauded as the primary factor in the Dec cold anomaly and thus attending snow surplus in latter November through mid January. I think the AO is under evaluated back then.

It may be the upfront expenditure and availability. Some people are in these small homes because they can't be someplace else... They may still have a mortgage too. So, their contribution may not be feasible when putting in central air into a home that doesn't even have ducting infrastructure is probably something they can't afford without saving pennies for 10 years - which can be done, but people also have to live lives ...otherwise, wtf are we doing this thing called life for. you know? abject poverty doesn't stop at Section 8 auxiliary or worse housing...it's slackens gradually from bottom up.

'Art imitating cultural' What you've described ( I suspect you know already...) is the classic moving arc of the narcissist. Maybe that's all the author of the song is after, ..that specific aspect through song. But, it's also possible that since western cultures appear to have a swelling problem with narcissism and entitlement, it makes sense the artistry reflects that, too.

I did not want the reader to focus on the HC expansion shit... I put that in there later on, as a personal winter hypothesis, granted... But I spent much, much more energy trying to elucidate the simple premise that something has changed, "that part cannot be controverted" That's what bears the most relevancy. ... To reiterate: forget the reason why. Lol, I know it would be useful to know 'why' but it is what it is. The ENSO's have demonstrated less apparently effective in modulation forcing in the concerned times - the aspect of the ENSO not reflecting on the pattern is ubiquitous in climate ambit, by the way. That begins to crack the foundation of their reliability/institutional method confidence. Sorry, it does ...or should. It's not absolute or total though. There just needs to be a caveat emptor that the straight up ENSO method has proven not as reliable since circa 2001. Now, if we wanna get into sample size ..okay, it's only the last three. Sure. However, that is also occurring during a "hockey stick" time of CC as noted. Usually, when something smells like a cigar its because someone is smoking one.

Not a huge fan myself.... One has to research - it turns out - or tbey'll end up buying a unit that roars like testing at emission controls. I mean it is easy to impulse buy a 180$ unit, but that's what you get if you do ... ghastly above white noise, window-casing buzzers. Good luck sleeping with a unit that roars, but then also rumbles whenever the compressor kicks on. You end up wrapping a sweaty pillow around your head, anything to back-drop the sound toward a more pleasing sort of white noised decibel. There are "quiet" running units, apparently. I think it's an obsolescence scandal. I mean think about it ... they have perfected the science and in turn, manufacturing of air conditioning to the point where they know precisely how annoying to the point of agony they can "force" you into spending 600$ on the 5000 BTU'er. Dicks... So they got the parts for cheap layin' around, snap 'em together in a facility out side of Hong Kong for 2.00/hr ... toss 'em out on the shelves for a buck-80, taking the longer 'extortion' view that you'll then be successfully driven battier than two Tuesdays in the same week of Hades enough to mortgage your kid's future on the high tech version that really isn't any more money for them to manufacture. Yeah, Capitalism works. Also, I am not entirely convinced these louder, cheaper shelf emptier units are the most power efficient. I mean, when the window casing and walls vibrate when the compressors kick on, that is electrical energy being converted into mechanical energy ...which means, that is a LOT of electricity being used in order to resonate the f'n physical edifice of the home. SO, ...my goal, prior to next summer's CC/GW New England heat apocalypse, in having no choice, is to give up my left testicle for adoption and spend 1000$ seeking the quiet sanity of the "higher grade" version. Usually ( actually..) I just deal with the heat because of the loudness factor, until no acclimation is sufficient and I cave. Summers appear to be getting DP hotter anyway, keeping nights elevated..etc. So if can find one that doesn't sound like the anus of Logan must be fartin' at the other end of the room... blah blah

As the last two completed cycles of warm --> cool ENSO phases have globally demonstrated, spanning the last 10 .. 12 years ( with increasing coherency over time) the N. hemispheric, wintertime circulations have been increasingly challenged to objectively fit into the climatology of ENSO events - the assuming pattern basis. Whether anyone wants to believe, admit, can understand, or some combination of those requiring they come up with some other plausible explanation that doesn't include Hadley Cell expansion, bears less relevancy for me. In other words, forget HC for the moment; those seasons above are difficult results to explain. That is paramount, and ...probably IS more the relevancy. It's emerging consistency, also looks reproducible and less like 'noise'. Logic: those "break-downs" in the ENSO, vs observed circulation structures should immediately connote the circulation is unable to respond to ENSO as readily in recent decades - regardless. This needs to be factored. I understand, the alternative to the old standard institutional guides leaves only questions. And ... the elephant in the room, those that cannot adapt means, 'no confident insight.' Unfortunately, regardless of cause, or reluctance to capitulate to any offered reasons why ..something is still interfering. That's just a reality that cannot really be controverted. Personal winter hypothesis: I lean toward whatever weak or moderate Nina transpires, it probably will more at transiently jive with patterns. Coincidentally, while the pattern at those times happens to be passing through the idealized state: *but* really en route to some other destination. Those destinations may tend to be none static, with unusually quick modulations between (-)(+) PNAP of various amplitude. I do admit, I visualize an expanding/resistant HC, compressing south under the boreal winter heights, generates so much velocity saturation into the flow, this exceeds the stable wave-mechanics at R-wave scales, and sets the pattern into frequent motion. ...- the entire hemisphere acts like the 'unmanned fire hose.' I realize some think the HC is only observable in the autumn/linger... but that does not mean the HC is not there. The gradient surplus and the speed up of westerly ambient velocity IS the HC still lurking.. It becomes less a latitude distinction; the spatial layout is 'converted' into velocity increases. In that sense, it's there and effecting - It is really as though the northern periphery of the HC termination into the westerlies begins to subsume the ENSO gradient, whereby because it is "buried" in that sense, this may explain the absence in observed ENSO forcing - I really believe in a nut shell, that is why these ENSO seasons are demonstrating lesser coherency on patterns. Now ... none of these above is a statement related to how much snow a region gets. If anything, it is a statement that probably argues for less chance of any one temperature anomaly distribution to persist. The winter in the whole nation may be +1 to +2 ( say...) but it may be -1 for a single month in the GL-NE region, with the other months being +2 with, both having at least one distinctive cold wave despite averaging that way... So the winter could be remembered as so-so ( for winter enthusiasts) ..not bad.. couple decent storms and a smattering of mixers. But not a good grade because there were too many thaws. That type of characterization would fit the wild unstable pattern look. Having said that, caveat emptor: I suck at seasonal weather forecasting. I am much better at specific era risk assessment. I can visualize and see interesting things out there week 3, and have proven that ability many times in the last 15 years. But, that hardly defines a season. The best one can do is attempt clad and cogently derived reasoning, then ... wait for fractals to devise a destiny that evinces some attempt was also lurking to leave us without any explanation - haha lol
