This feels like the coolest spring we’ve had in a while. Sure, we’ve had a handful of 70s and 80s, but most of it has been 50s. 

It’s that we can’t get a streak of warm weather going. One nice day then back to the gunk. And usually by now we have a day or two close to/over 90. But we need westerly flow for that which has been nonexistent.

Tapering down to sprinkles here as the focus of the rain shifts to the east for the afternoon. 0.46" here so far for this event. 

Looking forward to some warmer weather next week. Obviously before then we have to get used to these cool dreary days with highs in the low-mid 60s, but we might sneak in 1 slightly warmer day on Friday.

0.42" here and tapering down as well.  Glad Friday is decent, prom day for my kids.

Just got a heavier downpour here just to the east of KHVN. More heavier downpours are showing up on radar to the south of Long Island. So somebody in the eastern zones could go over 2” like the HRRR suggests.

Siberia

Siberia doesn’t get much snow. (Mainland, maybe on the coast) it’s just a giant dome of cold dry air most of the winter. Sunny and -50 for months. The summers are surprisingly hot with swarms of mosquitoes so thick it looks like a dust storm. Probably the worst place on earth to live.

It's funny to see people complain about a lack of heat in May when we're basically guaranteed 10 weeks of disgusting tropical weather every summer. Meanwhile those of us who enjoy the cold have to pray for a 3-day arctic blast or two to break up the 4 months of eternal November every winter.

why is it hard to even have one fully sunny day? where all these pesky little storms coming from?

hot dry weather is better and it should be mandatory for everyone to have an air conditioner

I mean its 2024 everyone should either have an air conditioner or jump in a pool or some other body of water.

if we could control weather right now the first thing I would do is incinerate this storm out of existence

and I would laugh as the clouds burned....

Same. Even average would be nice to have this time of year. We can barely get a string of 70’s going, May is just constant 50/60’s and wet/gloomy with a handful of 80/90’s interspersed, averaging out to 70-something.

we might be getting a huge solar flare by then too-- 13 days from now

I am curious to see if there is a -PNA correlation. There might be, as when the Earths magnetic defenses weakened around 2013, then again in 2019, there was more -PNA.

Im with you. This is a long shit slog of rain from Nov thru spring with temps in 40s and 50s. Then a summer of bugs and humidity. It is terrible.

 

Mentally, it is getting to be like the Pacific NW. Not good.

 

Worth a move out west to a sunny dry type climate (Denver/SLC) if you can swing it

Showers will depart tomorrow and the clouds could begin to break during the afternoon. However, partly to mostly cloudy conditions could persist throught the weekend. Further, additional showers are possible during the weekend.

In the wake of the system, readings will reach mainly the 60s through the weekend. No significant early-season heat is likely through at least the first three weeks of May. However, it could turn warmer next week.

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was -0.4°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +0.3°C for the week centered around May 8. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged -0.08°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.73°C. Neutral conditions are now developing.

The SOI was +14.42 on May 13.

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +1.387 today.

Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 52% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal May (1991-2020 normal). May will likely finish with a mean temperature near 63.3° (0.1° above normal).
