It wont equal 1933 or 2005 in terms of hurricanes or majors or ACE, but the TS number is at a historic pace even if you exclude a few of them.

ACE is probably a better metric for comparing activity between seasons but other factors (like how many storms make landfall, the amount of rainfall they deliver, how many are intensifying at landfall, etc., are all factors that should be considered.)

donsutherland1 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 The coming weekend will be unseasonably chilly. Even Central Park could see the temperature drop below 50° this weekend for the first time in September since September 24, 2013 when the temperature fell to 47°. Tomorrow morning's low temperatures will likely be near the following values: Albany: 36° Allentown: 41° Boston: 48° Bridgeport: 49° Harrisburg: 47° Hartford: 42° Islip: 48° New York City: 50° Newark: 49° Philadelphia: 50° Poughkeepsie: 40° Providence: 46° White Plains: 44° Generally below normal readings could persist until near the middle of next week. Afterward, temperatures will moderate. There is an increasing possibility that September could wind up on the cool side of normal, which would be an uncommon event in recent cases preceding La Niña winters. Such an outcome is not assured. The highest rainfall from Hurricane Sally was 29.99" at Orange Beach, AL. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was -1.0°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was -1.0°C for the week centered around September 9. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged -1.08°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged -0.75°C. La Niña conditions have developed and will likely prevail through the remainder of autumn. The SOI was +17.89. Today, the preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) figure was +0.407. On September 17, the MJO was in Phase 4 at an amplitude of 1.592 (RMM). The September 16-adjusted amplitude was 1.624. Since 1990, there have been 11 La Niña events, 6 of which followed an El Niño winter. 10/11 (91%) case saw warmer than normal September. All 6 following an El Niño winter were warmer than normal. September mean temperatures for New York City for those cases were: 11 cases: 69.9°; Subset of 6 cases: 70.8°; Entire 1990-2019 period: 69.0°. The September mean temperature for all La Niña and neutral-cool cases following an El Niño winter (1950-2019: n=13) was 69.9°. Since 1950, there have been five cases where a La Niña developed during June-July-August or afterward following an El Niño winter. 4/5 (80%) of those cases saw a predominant EPO+/AO+ winter pattern. The most recent such case was 2016-17. 9/10 (90%) of the La Niña winters that followed an El Niño winter featured a predominantly positive EPO. Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 49% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal September. September will likely finish with a mean temperature near 68.1°. Finally, on September 17, Arctic sea ice extent (JAXA) was 3.735 million square kilometers. It is likely that the summer minimum figure has been reached. That figure was 3.555 million square kilometers (JAXA), which was the second lowest minimum extent on record. 2020 is the second consecutive year with a minimum extent figure below 4.000 million square kilometers and the third such year on record.

CIK62 Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 The next 8 days are averaging 67degs.

EURO now ups the T's for the next 10 days, while the GFS backs them down. Tropics quieting down: 26N 93W, 25N 59W-still getting stronger, but I am just a strawman, 13N 37W-going nowhere?

donsutherland1 Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Morning thoughts... The coldest air so far this season now covers the region. Today will be partly sunny and very cool for the season. The temperature will likely struggle toward the middle 60s across the region. Likely high temperatures around the region include: New York City (Central Park): 64° Newark: 65° Philadelphia: 65° A warmup will likely commence toward the middle of next week. In terms of verification, here's how last evening's estimates worked out: Albany: 36°; Actual: 33° Allentown: 41°; Actual: 39° Boston: 48°; Actual: 46° Bridgeport: 49°; Actual: 47° Harrisburg: 47°; Actual: 43° Hartford: 42°; Actual: 37° Islip: 48°; Actual: 49° New York City: 50°; Actual: 50° Newark: 49°; Actual: 48° Philadelphia: 50°; Actual: 48° Poughkeepsie: 40°; Actual: 36° Providence: 46°; Actual: 45° White Plains: 44°; Actual: 42° Average Error: 2.2° Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
