The funny thing is, a few of us weenies along with a red tagger or two, maybe including you(?) like to joke about the -NAO showing up in April after it was a no-show all winter but I feel like we have done this dance a few times in the past 10-15 years. We have a winter pattern that would be naked back flips "if only that blocking had been in place" and then it shows up 60 days too late to give anyone in NE that HECS but just in time to throw April and May into the weenie purgatory of clouds and 50F.
