I don’t think there’s any reason to doubt a +3.5C traditional ONI peak and a RONI peak of +3.0C anymore



If the models are correct, this is the very start of an explosion of TC’s in the EPAC

We're at the point where this event catches up to '97 and passes it handily.

We are about to leave 1997 in the dust.

The 30C isotherm continues to trek further east of the dateline, pushed by the ongoing WWBs. Absolutely believable that it gets all the way to 140W by November

That relaxation of the ridge and heat has been the pattern since May following these periods of record heat and ridging.

If the ridge returns again in early August, then we’ll know the pattern is continuing.

But if the trough can hold on, then it would look more like a traditional developing super El Niño mid-latitude summer pattern in the East.
