You'll measure 3.5", BOX 4.5" but somehow Tblizz has 7" 1SM NW of KBOX.

LOL. Look at our numbers in the snow table. Always pretty close, and always consistently higher than BOX.

Anyway, I’ve moved. Living off of 44 on the raynham line now. So myself and Matt (butterfish) should be almost dead on.

The subsurface data is strongly favoring modoki/west-based El Nino at this point. If you compare with the same period in 2006, you can clearly see how 2006 was going to become more classic with time with all the subsurface warmth further east.

Lot of good seasons within those indexed years.

Sounds good, but what are your thoughts on this regarding a full basin event?  I came across this today. ( below ) 

 I myslef do not buy that, but I would think the El Nino could become a hair more robust,  but still be West-Based / Modaki in nature.

I dunno, I'm not expert enough to know what technically qualifies as a "full basin" event....but regardless, I do not see how this doesn't remain very west based looking at the subsurface.

I just made that same dichotomy in my last blog post a couple of days ago. I'm about ready to put that analog to bed.

I'm not sure some understand what exactly is meant by "basin wide", or "full basin".

So true. 

Ray,  are you making progress on your solar research . I know in the other thread you were debating how important it is whether we are headed into the solar min, or whether there is a lag ( headed away from ) and it might be best for next winter in that scenario.

We don't know. But does a weak modoki el nino winter within one year of the solar minimum verifying mild pass the smell test?

The answer is no.
