  1. Well ... so I guess this next immediate ensuing 12z run has it's novelty for a moment - we'll see what she sells. Either way, that's a weird look out there. The -NAO comes and goes and we are left with a +PNAP that isn't providing any cooling dividends...
  2. Yet ... individual storm/event profiling have been increasingly more proficient 'in bucket' producers. I almost wonder...if by "correcting" for "exaggerated" PWAT ...does that make it more accurate say ...in the means bell-curved events, but now it misses the NJ/Manhattan ..coastal CT rain bombs, or the 40" snow swatch from N of the Cap district of eastern NY to middle NH last December. Once considered freaks ...how many freaks can we sustain before we just admit to a freakshow
  3. "Frost-able" air mass oscillating in and out begins. Windier side though -
  4. Yup... totally agree - I said resolution but that's more what I had in mind..heh
  5. Not just wasps... I have wild flowers over here in the trough of the old easement that's not really being used, and there are lots of honey bees and bumble bees probing in and out of them like it's mid July. Should all slow down post D 6..7 It's a little unclear how far the pendulum may swing, but that looks like a changing of the guard to me around that ~ time frame. We have a multi - teleconnector convergence for a colder eastern continent that's been pretty well advertized... in the American cluster. Though not excessive in SD, the consistency and concerted trajectory among the GEFs members have established +PNA or modality therein, while they are in maintenance mode keepin/ yo-yoing a -NAO to varying SD That...usually drops the legs out of a warmer pattern either way.
  6. Yeah... I'm wondering if this so called "Integrated Forecasting System (IFS)" is their answer to the U.S.'s "Global Forecast System" .. .but, that sort of 'soft' competition/motivation, if so, isn't really easy to know or determine for obvious reasons. The GFS has the computing power now -all it really needs ( all jokes aside ...almost impossible in this group of malcontents LOL ) is resolution enhancing, and it probably becomes the superior product (..or at least enters that discussion) because it will be a more universally "domained" tool - so ... in that vision/goal, the Euro gets left behind - just going off the philosophy deep end here a little.
  7. https://phys.org/news/2021-10-catalysts-carbon-dioxide-fuel.html That link provides a paraphrased/repro of the metallic catalyst science I mentioned above ( the one that triggered a Sci Fi diatribe LOL ). Converting C02 ( and one can imagine or wonder if this may work - eventually .. - with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, too ) into usable fuel could end up being that silver bullet in the savior's gun. Part of the problem in this slow moving response to the crisis ...is that en masse and average, humanity's own worst enemy is the limitation of humanity to perceive climate change as an actual "crisis," or always had been. Yes, that tides turning ...but, still too slowly. There are textured reasons for the former slowness. At a basic level, billions of people represent a huge ballast of institutionally entrusted ways-and-means, so cracking that Foundation ...takes probably a proportionally power for seismic event - you go Azimov! Like, there's a real murky "soft" conspiracy; it has its bread crumbs, evidences side-car to generational economic/industrial antics as lurking over the last 100 years. But, by nature of soft in this context... it's not really looked for - it just becomes pissy muse at water coolers, and plot components in espionage novels... etc, also most likely begrudgingly/necessarily having to accept that Oil lubes capitalism's "machinery." Redirecting wealth to research more fossil fuels extraction technologies and setting up strategic filibuster insiders in Washington ... and on and so on, that whole arc of the last 100 years is still suppression, and indirectly conspiratorial - sorry ...it just is. But, what is a civilization of pre-K1 status supposed to do? They kind of got us by the balls of societal provisional necessity. And so, the search ends up extinguishing by the wave actions of a sea that is not resonating to "less survival" going back to donkeys and levers. It's just how indirection, as opposed to evincible as direct actions by the conglomerate to tactically caps research hasn't exactly 'popularized' thus favored very many alternatives. However, if we can get society "interested" ...not just gaslighted or finger-wagged warned. Hmmm. ( Profit + Humans ) = expediency ... and always has, far more triggering a motivator than the 10 commandments ( yes...some attempted droll). Brilliant! use Greed to solve Greed's problem. Now that's an interesting paradox for Theologians; is a sin a sin when the action diminishes the quality of the sin unto its self? Maybe that realization is the evidence of our current evolutionary turn? Kind of like the Showtime program "Dexter" - sending in a socio-psychopath to to essentially take out serial killers...? Or, maybe "two wrongs don't make a right" ...and "The only winning move is, not to play." It does in math though ... ( - ) * ( - ) = ( + ) ... interestingly corny little joke. Anyway, the above science and furthering research may seed speeding things up ... acting as sort of an end-around that limitation gap, one that is too wide to save this. Bottom line, it's already too late. We and countless other species we are bringing down with us, are on borrowed time ... We have to stop a fully loaded Tanker ship inside a mile of proverbial time before threshold this-and-that, but despite the growing zeitgeist to take this shit finally at a dire perspective that seems to vibe civility ... at present rate, that would require 10 miles to turn that Tanker around. I.e., we don't have this kind of time.
  8. A little comical in a way considering the state of any agriculture is in a virtual arrested state due to their normal arid sequence/years being augmented on roids by climate change. it’s like when was the last time anyone needed to run one of those things ha
  9. I read a separate write up about Octonians and her work ..gosh almost 5 years ago actually. It's interesting... By the way - I'm aware you asked me some questions 'bout sci fi related stuff; I haven't had a chance to circle back. I have ideas that explain why the two main pillars of physics, Quantum Mechanics vs General Relativity, can no be reconciled - integrated. It has to do with General Theory or Relativity and all of ( in fact ..) reality for that matter, are "emergent properties" - or like a synegistic gestalt brought into existence by the action of Quantum Mechanics. But a spectrum-machinery that is way more vastly componential than any thing presently understood about the QM'verse. ... Think of it this way ... The moving projector is QM ... the cinema portrayed on the movies screen is Reality ...and General Theory of Relativity describes the rules of that Reality - not what is taking place inside the lens of the projector. Think of an Event Horizon surrounding a black hole...that is slipping below the lens, where the synergistic emergence of Reality no long exists - which concomitantly ... the mathematical rules in principle of Gen. Relativity simply do not exist. But I also wonder if there really is no real force of gravity... what "gravity" really is, in this Science Fictional concept ... is what we feel ( the force exertion ) of being left behind by the expansion of the cosmos - what the f does that mean, right ? The expansion is still happening in eternal perpetuity. However, where ever there is mass in the "Principle Of Expansion Negation theory" ... this imposes a pulling back ..or lag effect in the rate of expanding cosmos in that vicinity, and the lag dissipates at distance. The more mass - to wit ..density is mass - the more the drag effect. Black holes feature near or at infinite density, so space has zero expansion there. The upshot of this idea is that time and gravity are in fact the same thing - in a universe with no mass, space expands infinitely fast, and time moves along with it. In a universe of infinite density, time stands still and space is not expanding either. These are just some ideas I'm working on for new Sci Fi. I also have an interesting one about Planck Units and the information sub-cubits ( "God code" ) that is stored there that makes the fluid fabric of the cosmos -
  10. Did anyone go to the meteor web site where the tracking's available ?
  11. What is interesting is that the linear comparison matrix at CDC shows that what begins as a weak positive correlation in December, gradually strengthens through the ensuing months. By February the coefficients between NINO ( 3, 3.4, and 4 ) goes from any average of merely .1 in Dec, to over .5 in Feb! This latter is quite robust considering the arena of the atmospheric, where the pull of other mass field forcing ..etc.. Sorta why a La Nina winters "might" have better odds for earlier showing that fade... ? .. by earlier showing we mean "front end loaded" I think the paragon for this was that 1995 year... But, it seemed maybe have other things that augmented further making it sort of 'on roids'... The other thing is ..these existential takes are ( for me ..) prior to the era where/whence these ENSO signals began demonstrating weaker correlation to ensuing winter pattern tendencies...
  12. Right no. I would guess .72 is actually quite generous. We are south of .5 K by a goodly margin. Dr Michio Kaku would agree, fwiw - I mean, not that name dropping should particularly mean anything, just sayn'. We have the technological intelligence to make the step, at our earliest convenience. Therein is the problem - it is not deemed convenient to do so. It would help if/when the oligarchies of the planet suddenly ( not a conspiracy, but a "soft" conspiracy - I can explain what the adjective means in this context ) have no choice but to connect the climate crisis directly to their status. Only then does it becomes hugely convenient. It's "empathy for the emperor," and just like the good little slaves to the hierarchical social command structuring inbred in all primate "pack conditions," the weight of both science and their celebrities makes doubters exceptionally fringed. Then, the automaton masses feel the weight of science and instinct of ceding to the alpha. In such reality, no sweat - technologies like any so called fictional "CRIM" ( C02 Reclamation Impact Matrix) would be on the drafting tables, yesterday. I can see those staring at the pendulum ice wall saying, "CRIM reaper" is more like it ... That "post Matrix" realm... is a mad scramble. Survival kicks in at a collective desperation, flight or fight taking place during a "the big dying" ... which I glossed over in turn of phrase in that.. heh. What is TBD: a break-down in the ocean phytoplankton C02- 02 exchange that unexpectedly accelerates the mass extinction event that is not only taking place, but few are really aware out here in reality ( btw - ..) It leaps incrementally when that happens; the toppling rather abruptly in a generational sense becomes advocated via appealing to the corporeal senses of a species that seems to only humor ideas of catastrophe, if/when the mere idea is not actually causing discomfort. etc...etc... You touched on an aspect also in this book... the complacency of multi-generation convenience addling by and within the Fossil Fuel illusory bubble of safety and ****ing (It's reeking of "Fermi P " at that point ) .. CRIM tried to do without the pollution matrix of pre -TBD Anyway, the so-called "post-matrix" .. It's a new deal. A faux optimism,however, evinces when the crisis we've put our selves in has a fractal propagation to it, already set into motion.. and the more we correct, ..it's almost like time travel variance/paradox, - the rest follows..
  13. Ha ha... right right. I noticed a proliferation of these "J.J. landscaper" vehicles began around the time of the advent of back back and walk behind leaf blowers. It's a 'rocket science' gig achievement while baked -
  14. Oh...ha! T "MINUS" 2 days... Heh, I didn't even know there was a new version coming out. Interesting... knee-jerk suspicion: just in the nick of time for the cold-season debut. It's probably going to be under unbearable scrutiny
  15. Mm... I'm not sure I agree with using temperature anomaly distributions anyway. Not that anyone asked... just showing up to the bus-stop here. But, in short, I'd actually ballast the pattern tendencies more so than the t-anomaly distribution for any climate lapsing questions/method therein. I've come to find that early pattern tendencies, more so the temps, tend to beget those patterns returning in deeper more prolonged form. Temps? those will usually follow the patterns guiding - eventually.. Not trying to troll here - just being frank. Late October 1995 into early November is a perfect paragon for that sort of aspect, ... yeah perhaps too good and should be treated as an isolate fluke. I don't know. But there are many other years I can recall where early -EPO/-NAO blips --> later onslaughts. This seems to be less true for the AO itself, however ...'nother headache. As an aside: we are also in a skewing interpretation problem right now - a bad one, too. People seem to be missing this quite a bit. We have been getting CC -related ( most likely culpable...) disproportionately warm temperatures relative to all teleconnection, an aspect that has been increasing in frequency spanning some years. It's just been a matter of decimals vs whole numbers or not. But, in suppositionally speaking, a -1.0 SD NAO was colder in 1990 than now...etc - how much or how little. Which to me makes the usage of temperatures even more shaky - maybe even absurd. Case in point, spanning these first 10 days of present October, we are likely to sustain at least a modest positive temp anomaly distribution over our regional U.S. ( notwithstanding two or three counties managing to buck those averages ..if so). In fact, +2 and +3 at HFD/ORH, i.e., just a bit sight longer than just modest at that. But regionally speaking, we'll see. Yet, sustaining a -2.0 SD NAO?! That should be interesting to anyone not brain numb. I suspect if we keep hitting the neggie NAO's we'lll start bleeding more cold and offset these 10 days. (Hint, I'm not buying the EPS right now... but that is getting too discrete for the seasonal thread). Fact of the matter is, we are now 10 days into this Oct, with all of them in a rather deep -NAO, and the dailies are modestly warmer than normal. And, this -NAO has been demonstrative in the lower tropospheric circulation bias, with plenty of mass transport evident into eastern Ontario and slicing SW -W along the upper M/A into the OV region. It's not fake... I think that's playing with dry ice there... heading toward November if the GOA/R-wave structure remains relatively weak, while the NAO is neutral-negative. Eventually we're threshold and it will have been a coherent pattern tendency that "might" have been surmised early if using that "beget idea" lol.. .but yeah
  16. heh...I may be over stating... It just sucks landing this butt plug off the Atlantic on a Saturday and Sunday. I'm liking these MEX numbers from HFD to FIT here in the interior. It can do this until November 15 for all I care: SAT 09| SUN 10| MON 11| TUE 12| WED 13| THU 14| FRI 15| SAT 16 CLIMO X/N 61| 44 66| 52 72| 51 75| 53 73| 57 74| 51 75| 53 73 39 62 That said ...I still don't like the look of the American- based telecon spread for the distant range. Tries to flip seasons too quickly .. and by "too quickly" - normal pattern gestation-timing wouldn't likely carry that a long way, particularly when the hemispheric winter gradient hasn't even evinced what that pattern is likely to be just yet. Unless it's 1995 ..heh -
  17. Meanwhile ... loop this: https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/?parms=subregional-New_England-02-24-1-100-1&checked=map&colorbar=undefined It's really almost more than merely symbolic to me, how the synoptics seem to be passing backward through April ...en route to winter. Just like we see in that dreaded god-forsaken rectal plaque month, we get these north Atlantic conveyors to set up ... as though preordained by geology millions of years ago.. predicting the future, targeting SNE ( seen abv) It's pooling here. The NAM has this for 72 hours... unrelenting. While it's 60 going to 74 up your way, with gem skies that only polish in time. top 10 there bottom 10 here
  18. Meh... I feel pretty confident in my own hypothesis regarding the attenuation of ENSO forcing. As the HC has expanded, and weakened that aspect of the total Walker circulation, that just physically impedes the ability of the former's ability to disperse into the R-wave layout of the lower Ferral/HC kiss latitudes "as much as" it used to prior to the HC morphology, which has becom more coherent over the last 20 years. ..on and so on. Longer version: Nested in that statement is the concept/worth-while experimental posit that begins to explain why recent ENSO regimes have suffered comparatively weaker impacts around the known climate targets of the world over that same time span. Not saying zero, but less. Again, it doesn't mean Nina won't express in the flow, just that any -1.5 ( +1.5 ..etc), may not be as discernibly so, as it was in the prior climate generation. Which means if true ...one takes risks basing your forecast percentage/weights as much so as we used to, among a few implications... I find it fascinating that as a seasonal forecasting science/"art," the general ambit is still figuring out how the ENSO this and that drives things, when here we are modulating the ability for it to even do so ..before said ambit had really figured it all out. So how this affects/effects the winter ... "up in the air" with all due puns intended... but, I would put money down that it would be less coherently La Nina "looking" than one may expect - if indeed they were raised prior to 2000 and still rely upon those older paradigms. I think there will be times when the pattern looks more La Nina-like... but, those will be happenstance and transient, while the pattern structure is en route toward some other circulation destination that looks nothing like La Nina at other times, given this range of anomaly observed and predicted. That happens in 1955 anyway, but even more so. Unstable ... Lots of gradient as a base-line canvas, with 12 to as many as 15 non-hydrostatic height contours between Brownsville Texas and James Bay common amid a rage of excessive velocities tending to absorb individual shortwaves. This will effect storm morphology/type and frequency - unclear how or if that effects precipitation amounts or impact types. Polar indices play their usual role. We could be bombed or boned this winter, depending on idiosyncrasies in timing and placement details of the polar mechanics. And those have less predictive skill at seasonal lead constraints. I do like the prospects given the cards showing on this Black Jack deal, though. With -Solar + multi-decadal AO appearing to be rather robustly +correlative ( QBO and SSW doing their bits...) that should mean eventually the law of averages catches up with this f'n game and we finally get a -AO winter going. Jesus Christ.
  19. This could be an epic Science Fiction tale ... The central thematic arc would be a bit of a trope, 'tinkering in systems with extraordinary power setting off extraordinary consequences,' but given to the travails of AGW and humanity's glut for energy that are here and clearly present dangers, would give that trope a very special sort of penetrative relevancy (to put it nicely... ) ".... Researchers from QUT's Centre for Materials Science, led by Associate Professor Liangzhi Kou, were part of an international study that used theoretical modelling to identify six metals (nickel, niobium, palladium, rhenium, rhodium, zirconium) that were found to be effective in a reaction that can convert carbon dioxide into sustainable and clean energy sources." the used advancing AI/Super computers to ferret this out - In "The pendulum ice age" ... innovation exceeds the wise foresight. It was calculated in the earlier eras of empirical AGW's proof of occurrence, after the great dying of mid century: since compensatory technologies got us in trouble, they will be needed in semblance of proportionality to serve us our savior. History's greatest evolutionary challenges contain a leitmotif: during any din of crisis. those that walked out and lived to reproduce, dusted off because they relied upon human ability to innovate solutions. Nodal machines dot the intercontinental lands by the year 2084, while at equidistant, those power-plant processing platforms, were moved into positions out over the open vastness of the Earth's oceanic expanses. Their eerie homage to a bionic world transforming, the 'C02 Terra Reclamation Impact Matrix', this was the first ever example in human history. The first of its kind in so many varied and textured distinctions, ranging from the shear sophistication awe in technological specter, to the the fact that it involves the entire world stage. It indicated of our species arrival: we are succeeded Kardashev Level 1 Civilization distinction - if proximately. Albeit quite primitive in an Cosmological scale or sense therein, still these godly roads compared like a magic carpet ride to the trails wagon wielding crank and shaft mechanization. Or the eras between, from A-bombs to Pandemic management? Thosse seem like day 1 of freshman life, compared to this, the graduating test en meritus. "CTRIM" marks the first move into a future where all societies could collectively feel the satisfaction of a deep breath in relief. But lingering out there was that trope: Great systems of great power may born consequence proportionately handsome ... even just a little bit ... But CTRIM was geophysically derived. It had in a hurried motivation - to put it necessarily ... - met with all presumed testing. Each sub-beta-N stage introduced more complexity, more so to analog the "known" nearly fractal nature that pervades the essence of a cause-and-effect dynamic realm of feedback called Nature. The iterations finally bringing to bear a version of the technology, giving returns that limited unintended or emergent ramification, below a theoretical tolerance. So long as returns do not impose 1.61803% negative feedback, they didn't synergistically propagate toward toppling the initial system - it just is what it was, that peculiar value was the threshold percentage. And so it was, the best way to reduce the surplussed C02 ... while simultaneously providing uninterrupted energy to power the 'orgasm of humanity's various need-perceptions,' the the ambient C02 fell. Energy became a blinding surplus, actually. At first, the error was ignored. It's hard to label something as a problem, when the goal is being achieved an order of magnitude faster than the design of any problem solving method. The system in question was also simply never tested for positive returns. Blunder? The conceit of the achievement blinds like love. But compensatory kinematic feedbacks are another area of fractals that proves the folly-makers pride. It's like in that [ probably ] top 10 movies of all time, "War Games," "...Strange game. The only winning move is, not to play."
  20. Euro looks ( to me ..) like it just took the climatology of the U.S. and mapped a small %age of CC -enhanced PWAT regression over top. Which is like taking climate and adding a few clicks.
