donsutherland1 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Morning thoughts... At 8:30 AM, an area of rain covered much of extreme southeastern New York, the Long Island Sound and Connecticut. It was heading eastward away from the area. Some showers were still located as far west as northeastern Pennsylvania. Overall, once the light rain and showers exit the region, today will be mostly cloudy and mild. Temperatures will likely reach the upper 50s and lower 60s across the region. Likely high temperatures around the region include: New York City (Central Park): 60° Newark: 63° Philadelphia: 66° Zeta will bring a general 1"-3" rainfall across the region tomorrow into Friday followed by a shot of sharply colder air. Parts of northern Virginia, Maryland, and Delaware could see 2"-4" of rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( even though not extreme ). In the back of my mind though is the consequence from all the fires and the model's seasonal call for a mostly + NAO, although there does seem to be at least the possibility of some cycling at times with the phase of the NAO.

CIK62 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 That GFS just keeps getting warmer for the Nov. 05-13 period. It seeks to set the Time Clock back a full month or more as 70's are showing up now to go along with the 60's. The 9 day uncorrected average is 59*, or +10. Hopefully the correction factor at this range is -8. GFS T's always S_CK. The outlook for the month of November is a horror show for North America in general. Our saving grace here, is that we are in the area of lowest confidence for the Red/Yellow +++Codes that are everywhere. btw: The SREF is at about 2.1", and has a T of Snow Friday from 8am-Noon. 34* by Saturday AM, hitting freezing appears to have about a 5% chance.

donsutherland1 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Hurricane Zeta made landfall along the southeastern Louisiana coast late this afternoon with maximum sustained winds of 110 mph. As of 6:47 pm CDT, New Orleans had picked up 2.90" rain. That broke the daily record of 1.51", which was set in 1980. Zeta will move rapidly north and then eastward overnight and tomorrow before exiting off the Delmarva Peninsula or perhaps southern New Jersey coastline. As a result, a general 1"-3" rainfall appears likely in much of the region. Parts of northern Virginia, the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Delaware could pick up 2"-4" of rain. The potential exists that cold air from eastern Canada could be drawn southward to produce at least some snowfall in an area running from northern Pennsylvania, across central New York State, and into central New England. Behind the storm, the coldest air of the season will briefly push into the region. November will likely commence on a cool note with the first week winding up cooler than normal. A surge of cold air could bring the mercury to freezing even in New York City on Tuesday morning, making for a chilly start to Election Day. A prolonged period of above normal temperatures could develop during the second week of November. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was -1.1°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was -1.4°C for the week centered around October 21. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged -0.87°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged -1.15°C. La Niña conditions will likely prevail at least into mid-winter. The SOI was -14.38. Today, the preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) figure was +2.280. That is the highest figure since March 25, 2020 when the AO was +3.174. On October 27 the MJO was in Phase 6 at an amplitude of 1.623 (RMM). The October 26-adjusted amplitude was 1.941. 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. A predominant EPO+/AO+ pattern is likely for winter 2020-21. In response, it is likely that the Middle Atlantic and southern New England areas will see a warmer than normal winter with potentially below normal snowfall. Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 94% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal October. October will likely finish with a mean temperature near 57.8°. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CIK62 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 The last 3 days of October are averaging 47degs. Making it 44degs., or about -9.0. There may be 3 to 6 daily low readings in the 30's prior to these being neutralized by a string of 60 degree highs, Nov. 05-12. Month to date is 59.4[+2.0]. October should end near 58.0[+1.1]. 57*(82%RH) here at 6am, street wet. Zeta remnants: About 2.0"-2.3" for the three main models. Low T's the next 7 days are EURO 31*, CMC 31*, GFS 35*.

donsutherland1 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Morning thoughts... Tropical Storm Zeta will race northeastward and then east-northeastward toward the Middle Atlantic region before moving off the Delmarva Peninsula or perhaps New Jersey coast out into the Atlantic Ocean this evening. It will be increasingly windy with periods of heavy rain. A general 1”-3” rainfall is likely. The temperature will gradually fall from its 7 AM figures. 7 AM temperatures around the region included: New York City (Central Park): 53° Newark: 53° Philadelphia: 53° Tonight into tomorrow, portions of northern Pennsylvania, central New York State extending down into parts of the Hudson Valley, and central New England could see some snow. Precipitation will end tomorrow and it will be blustery with readings likely staying in the 40s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
