2015 was great despite no huge storms (fu juno)

yeah and fu Boston too lol

It's the first time I've ever seen freezing drizzle on the east end of LI on an onshore wind....the water temps were THAT cold!

We were in the single digits for lows on the last day of Feb, wow.

And had a big snow in March.....

The only other time I remember such big late season cold was back in 2017-18 I think it was when we had the four big noreasters in March and then had a significant snowstorm in early April to boot?  If we could've superimposed that March-April to Jan-Feb, it would have outdone all the other winters of the decade.....

I like snow in December...I like it better if it stays around for a while...the snow depth table below shows snow depth for each day...my favorite years were from 1959-1970...8 of 12 years had snow on the ground Christmas day...

the best snow depth years for Newark NJ in December...

December.....dates....t = trace falling....T = trace on the ground...trace is less than 0.5"...

I think there's an index that ranks seasons by "snowfall quality" and the severity of winter cold....2014-15, 2010-11, 2002-03, 1995-96, 1977-78, 1960-61, 1947-48, 1933-34, 1917-18 and 1898-99 are near the top of that list.

 

These were my favorite seasons for snowstorm quality....

17-18

15-16

10-11

02-03

95-96

82-83

81-82

77-78

Smoke aloft coming fast across PA mid afternoon. Images of what it might look like for the bands 8P tonight, 8A Wednesday and 8A Thursday.  NYC should see the back edge of this mornings band just to the east now, while cirrus from Teddy is along the CT River.  So the 8A Thursday image suggests more smoke aloft for later Thu or Fri.

For the October discussion topic... Definitely colder or much colder than normal the first week per multiple models-ensembles.  Additionally... 12z/22 ensembles suggest a slight covering of snow is possible either in the Catskills or Adirondacks sometime between Oct 4-6?  I guess if that occurs that's not a good sign for our 20-21 winter being snowier than normal?

if i wanted sunny cool temps i would live in san diego i want some stormy weather // this weather is boring...

Having a couple of weeks of nice clear skies and low humidity isn't going to kill you lol, the stormy weather will be back soon enough.  Better to get this now rather than in the middle of winter when cold air sometimes gets wasted.

After an unseasonably cool start, a noticeable warmup commenced. Under bright sunshine, the temperature rose into the lower 70s in many parts of the region. High temperatures included:

Allentown: 73°
Baltimore: 73°
Harrisburg: 75°
Islip: 70°
New York City: 71°
Newark: 75°
Philadelphia: 74°
Washington, DC: 73°

Westhampton recorded a daily and monthly record low temperature of 32°. The previous daily record was 37°, which was set in 1962. The previous September record was 33°, which was set on September 24, 1998 and tied on September 29-30, 2000 and September 18, 2013. This was also Westhampton's earliest freeze on record. The prior record was October 2, 1998, which was tied on October 2, 2009. Both cases saw a minimum temperature of 32°.

Afterward, temperatures will likely remain at generally above normal levels for the remainder of September. A cool shot is possible to open October.

Phoenix has an implied 83% probability of recording just its 13th September on record with a mean temperature of 90° or above. The most recent such occurrence was 2018 with a mean temperature of 91.8°. Phoenix will very likely record its hottest June-September period on record with a four-month mean temperature of 95.2°-95.4°. The existing record is 93.9°, which was set in 2011.

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was -0.4°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was -0.8°C for the week centered around September 16. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged -0.93°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged -0.68°C. La Niña conditions have developed and will likely prevail through the remainder of autumn.

The SOI was +12.72.

Today, the preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) figure was +2.183.

On September 21, the MJO was in Phase 5 at an amplitude of 0.999 (RMM). The September 20-adjusted amplitude was 0.878.

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 61% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal September. September will likely finish with a mean temperature near 68.4°.

ECM has similar type cold on 12z guidance while prior runs and ensembles keep the brunt of the cold to the west in the 0ct 1 - oct 5th period with maybe a day of the real chilly air coming in.

Reached 73* here.      Might try a late season trip to the beach here if winds are light tomorrow.        Today's gusts stired up a brush/debris fire at Bay 44th. St. and the BP.

As hinted to by the EURO with its favorable BN pressures along EC and back to the eastern GOM we have this:

Moon looks orange/reddish tonight, wildfires smoke? 

just a bit of smoke, but it's there, as i could tell driving home with the sun low, large, and more than just a bit dimmer than its usual self, and from some folks posting smoke models.  not like it was parts of last week, when i shot some good pictures directly into it.  but definitely not at full mast.

when i am cruising route 18 in my 2005 toyota camry, you boys better believe i'm looking my big stupid eyes into a big smoky sun.  after a long stupid day of my long stupid life it was the only piece of beauty that keeps me giving a shit.  give me more smoky sunsets.  give me less of anything else.

Cant promise colder but it seems the 850 temps cold be colder...if its a mixed environment or LE clouds or offshore storm passages, then the clouds keep the mins up.  I kind of think this pattern has a killing freeze in it for the suburbs (1 night) but I could be overdoing it.  It seems 850 temps and sfc temps in the Ohio Valley will be 5 to 10 below normal and I think that at least one day should be colder than any to date in NYC this Sept.

Following up: This is really for the first week of October.  NAEFS prob of a colder than normal start to the month (Not the whole month-first week should be colder than normal but this doesn't say anything about the last two weeks of the month). The trough in the east seems to live beyond the 8th.  Also added the chance of 2" of rain in that same period (second slide) and finally the chance of 4 tenths of an inch.  

As you can see the bullish 00z/23 op GFS on a storm up the east coast the first week of October is  NAEFS ensembled  well to the east of the East Coast. However, the coldest weather of the season may occur this first week of October, including a smidge of snow in the Adirondacks or Catskills and a chance of a killing freeze in the interior suburbs "if" we get 1 cloud free light wind night. Daytime highs have a better chance of being the coolest of the season for 1 or 2 days in this period. 

Finally... I don't like this pattern for the sw USA fire danger..as posted just  bit earlier by blue wave... very strong ridge in CA next week... could be setting up for increased fire danger there. Need to follow the sw USA topics - NWS guidance on this.  Already in the short term... WY has increased fire danger by the NWS. 658A/23

Morning thoughts...

Much warmer weather has returned. Today will be mostly sunny and unseasonably warm. The temperature will likely top out mainly in the upper 70s and lower 80s across the region. Likely high temperatures around the region include:
