  1. if we get that -NAO, it bodes well for the rest of the winter. El Ninos with -NAO Decembers looked like this for Jan / Feb:

  3. EPS also making a shift towards much more medium range -NAO blocking
  4. GEFS is also showing a WB -NAO... Pacific isn't great, but good to see the blocking showing up
  5. it would be nice to have a well entrenched definition on this stuff, but it's different everywhere you look. quite annoying for these kinds of discussions I just don't want to see shit on twitter of people declaring this a super event after one monthly reading lmao
  6. lmao I'm just saying that one trimonthly period isn't the actual accepted definition. that has nothing to do with any contest. just saying that when this will be officially classified, it will probably be done as a strong event. I'm not referring to the contest here or anything like that i still have a hard time believing that this even gets to a full trimonthly. maybe it squeaks one out at 2.0 but that's probably it
  7. no, it's five consecutive months. this is the definition i've most commonly seen, but there isn't one that's the gold standard. NOAA classifies El Nino as five consecutive trimonthlies, though. 1997 and 2015 were over 2C for five straight trimonthlies
  8. you know that these anomalies need to persist for months, right? there have to be five consecutive months over 2C for this event to be classified as super
  9. looks like our next potential shot at something as this vort rounds the trough. GEFS picks up on it well this time

  11. yeah it looks like models are picking up on heat flux. would like to see this signal push into the medium range
  12. ECMWF extended really dropped the strength of the SPV compared to yesterday... ends up weaker than average for most of December now
  13. ECMWF extended really dropped the strength of the SPV compared to yesterday... ends up weaker than average for most of December now
  14. makes sense given the MJO pass through 7-8-1-2 by the time we get to mid-late month
  15. @GaWx look at this significant drop in SPV strength on the ECMWF extended compared to yesterday
  16. i mean, we've only been in two legitimate El Ninos in the last decade, so it would be rare given the low frequency. I don't think it's a coincidence that we've already gotten a 8-1-2 pass given that this event is strong
  17. the SPV is strong now, but it lessens to normal strength as we go on... normal is fine, as the SPV and TPV don't have to be coupled all the time
  18. just saying, if we do indeed get that look in late December, it's off to the races IMO. can't think of a moderate / strong / super Nino that had a good pattern early to not continue it later in the winter the ones that started off with a good pattern were often prolific. 2002 and 2009 are the most prominent examples. of course, we will need to see if this is voodoo or not
  19. yeah, no more pesky SW trough BS. pure Nino SE trough
  20. this pattern makes sense given the MJO progression. pretty awesome look here with split flow undercutting a -EPO
  21. if the mean forcing remains in these areas through the winter, which is certainly possible, I would argue yes
  22. lmao Fisher was talking about how it would be 60F 7 days out while Boston was seeing a historic blizzard in Jan 2022. dude is something else
  23. lmao the weenie from Kevin. i guess he's not a fan of MJO wave propagation. who knew
  24. the forcing gravitating towards the C Pac / western IO is very encouraging... those are the sweet spots. the shittier canonical EP Nino years had forcing in the E Pac, but that seems to get brushed off by the twitter geniuses
  25. it does shift back to 8-1-2 once into mid-late month... colder weather then ensues, most likely. this is assuming the VP is correct
