The volcano eruption will save us

That's right Aldie man. Use your power to get us another major volcanic eruption... preferably at least a high-end VEI 6/ low-end VEI 7. :thumbsup: 

I'll be checking the news throughout the evening.

So do you think we've permanently lost the 1996/2003/2016 level storms?

No, not like that. Imho- record breakers are more likely than less likely. Something will line up just right and put down insane totals before long. Juice is real and prolific qpf makers in general are on the increase.

Bread butter frequency is what is worrisome. The punch of the northern jet seems to be retreating on avg and south of the M/D never had a lot of room to spare even in the better times of decades past. Lack of clippers is a good example of what I'm talking about among other things. 2014-15 was 10 years ago already. Seems nearly impossible to get a run of clippers and overrunners since. The 4 decades before that had plenty.

I second this.

More likely is relative imo. We are on an incredible fail streak right now. Especially out here where it is SUPPOSED TO SNOW in the winter. And maybe that is the deal. The fringes have become the same as the cities. And you need to be way out at elevations that no one wants to live at. As far as big storms go? No Idea. IMO and MO only the Mid Atlantic cold anomaly is F'ing with our weather HERE. The ocean currents are all screwed up compared to historically. No clue what that means for us anymore. Also volcanism is starting to increase all over the planet as well.

You guys are gonna get your cold. You are gonna get your snow, too. Starting in 2030. I'll be way too old. But get ready. Buy 50 Jebman Shovels, several snowblowers and get some construction equipment. You're gonnabe charging exorbitant rates for snow removal. You guys are gonna get so damn tired of snow you will move south!

Good thing it's not Winter.. this is quite a streak of bad indices:

June will be the 5th month in a row with +NAO

4th straight month of +AO

4th straight month of -PNA

The roll forward-combined of these three over a 4-month period looks like this for the following Winter (DJFM) (colored is 53-55% probability):

And now June will be the 9th straight month of +SOI.. this tells me that the atmosphere is not in a state of major change. Recent analogs could be better ones going forward.

We are really going -PDO

If this keeps up, the July monthly may come close to -3! 

The further into the Summer you go, the stronger the Jan-Feb PNA correlation is to PDO

How likely is a 19-20, 22-23 redux? I only ask because I have a theory that starting with 2016-17 every 3rd winter is a snowless torch.

I would say that all the analogs from 16-17 on have 2x the weight of one's before it. Recent, non-strong ENSO probably 3x (18-19, 19-20, 22-23, 24-25)
