In addition to reduced visibilities, with temperatures near or below freezing, black ice is also possible this morning, especially on bridges and overpasses. Use caution on the roads early this morning and leave plenty of distance between cars, keeping in mind that any pavement that appears damp may be icy. Fog should lift shortly after sunrise.

bluewave Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Thickest frost of the season here in SW Suffolk. Temperature at 33 degrees but the there is a thick layer of frost on cars and the roofs. Almost feels like freezing rain on the cars with the dense fog until a few minutes ago.

NittanyWx Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 On 2/20/2020 at 12:15 PM, Brian5671 said: LR forecasting is difficult at best. Look at the super strong PV this year plus the warm water north of Australia-both were late breaking events that helped cause us to be warm and snowless. Good luck seeing something like that more than a month out.... I think the Australia situation was one where people weren't paying attention or connecting the dots in retrospect. I don't think a lot of people, at least here in the states anyway, look that closely at Australia to see whether the rainy season advancement was delayed or not. Once it was clear that was going to happen and solar radiation was going to be much higher than usual at a time when the IOD was collapsing, in retrospect that was a big flag that we should have seen coming. Even as someone who had a mild winter forecasted, I wasn't nearly warm enough and I think it's because I was too slow to the draw on recognizing that piece and wave train alteration accordingly.

CIK62 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 The Meteorological Winter will end somewhere between +3.91 and +4.07 degrees. The folly of LR Forecasting exposed: If a Top Ten Warmest and Top Ten Least Snowiest Winter does not give itself away ahead of time , why would a 1 or 2 +/- SD winter do so? As a long as we keep using a bogus 30 year normal, just say AN T's when asked. It is like playing craps and substituting loaded dice when it is your turn. At any rate, the GFS has 9 out of the first 11 days of March at a high of at least 50. Hope my sea breeze gives me the 80's when the City is in the 90's since I stopped at 52 today.

bluewave Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 This has to be one the biggest PDO reversals from December to February. The record ridge north of Hawaii and strong +EPO resulted in the big SST departure shift. One of the strongest La Niña-like patterns without out an official La Niña. This is what can happen with record SST’s from the date line to the Indian Ocean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Morning thoughts... 1. Another mild day is in store. At 10 am, temperatures included: Allentown: 45°; Baltimore: 47°; Boston: 52°; Bridgeport: 44°; Danbury: 49°; Islip: 45°; New York City: 50°; Newark: 49°; Philadelphia: 45°; Poughkeepsie: 47°; Washington, DC: 46°; Westhampton: 49°; and, White Plains: 44°. Temperatures should top out well in the 50s, even in areas that saw a thick frost and minimum temperatures in the lower and middle 20s this morning. 2. The pattern remains hostile for moderate (4" or greater) or significant (6" or greater) snowstorms in the Middle Atlantic and southern New England regions. 3. January-February 2020 is on track to become 7th January-February case with a mean temperature of 39.0° or above in New York City and the 11th such case for Philadelphia. At Boston, 2020 is likely to surpass January-February 2002 as the warmest January-February period on record. Currently, Boston is on track for a two-month mean temperature of 37.5°-37.7°. The existing January-February record is 36.5°, which was established in January-February 2002. 4. The CFSv2 has continued its evolution toward a warmer March forecast in the East.

I think it is safe to call this 'winter' dead. The ecological world is waking back up in a big way from a restless slumber this year. This could actually reverse the trend of the past few years where we had a delayed leaf out to one that is almost epically early if the current trends keep up.
