donsutherland1 Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Today was another warm day before the sea breeze pushed in. Temperatures rose into the 70s across much of the area. The warm weather will continue through the week. It will turn somewhat cooler but remain mild during the weekend. A moderate rainfall is possible during the weekend. Sunday will also be the coolest day with readings topping out in the lower and middle 60s. Temperatures will rebound into the 70s early next week. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +0.6°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was -0.2°C for the week centered around April 16. 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 0.00°C. Neutral ENSO conditions will likely continue through at least early summer. Early indications are that summer 2025 will be warmer than normal in the New York City and Philadelphia areas. The potential exists for a much warmer than normal summer (more than 1° above normal). The SOI was -5.91 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was -0.666 today. Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 92% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal April (1991-2020 normal). April will likely finish with a mean temperature near 55.0° (1.3° above normal). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cleetussnow Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 5 hours ago, LibertyBell said: The Soviet Union was horrible but they weren't even remotely close to socialism. China is also pretty bad but not anywhere close to the system I envision. The Nordic nations are at the top of every benchmark, including life expectancy. Those are the best, and they don't use corrupt crony capitalism like this cesspool of a nation does. A mixed economy is the best system. The US is very mediocre in every way. If you’re not afraid of socialism, you can’t be afraid of anything. Humans don’t do well under socialism. People have different desires, whims, goals, tastes, religions, etc. and socialism doesn’t allow for that, so you get concentration camps and gulags. Like in China and North Korea. Everyone is supposed to be equal (poor), or more equal (the communist party members). there is a lot of heavy industry up there in the nordics, and Norway is as much a petro state as any with few peers. The largest gas rigs on esrth are norwegian. Also, Sweden has the second highest per capita murder rate in Europe. Behind Albania. Paradise is elsewhere.

It's temporary, Norway is also the fastest in switching to EVs. Sweden is too conservative for my taste. The nations I look at are Finland, Norway, Iceland and Denmark. Finland would be my number 1, they are at the top of almost every metric, including happiness. I'm more afraid of oligarchy than I am of socialism. Oligarchy is much worse and that's what this country has been turning into for awhile now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, my weeping cherries, dogwood, eastern redbuds, pear and magnolias are all popping now. Only bad thing is besides one magnolia, all are pretty young trees that we planted over the past 8 years here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as practical feel for the day, it was more like a day without it, as the afternoon was relatively mild and calm which isn’t what I think of when I think of Ambrose jet type days. Part of what makes weather so fascinating to me, I agreed with you yesterday morning that it had the hallmarks, then I’m sitting in my dads backyard in south wantagh yesterday afternoon, thinking where the F is the wind!!!! It’s a pretty simple phenomenon, heat up the land and drop the pressure compared to the relatively higher pressure over the cold water. Well yesterday had that big time, lots of solar radiation, and below normal mid spring water temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This winter had a ton of that. If they weren’t it was probably stress from the drought last fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
