Damn the warministas called for HHH May through September back in early spring. Great luck with that

Love when the long range weather defies the predictions.

Developing strong Ninos  are never hot summers.

Well, the summer could lean above average, I don’t think it will be “hot”

[ineedsnow]

KORE is below normal for May.. 

[ineedsnow]

pretty meh overall... if it wasn't for that 5 day period we would be well below

[dendrite]

That would be a pretty warm month if you took out the 5 coolest days.

32.4F  -SN  Has begun on MWN.  Big flakage.  What will be their total?  Fun to watch!

Not sure what they’re using for normals since ORE wasn’t operational until summer of 96.

If you took the five warmest and the five coolest and averaged. It would be a pretty average month.

As the saying goes …the extremes are what make up the averages.

Lol…so if we took out the 5 warmest it would be a cool month. And If we took out the 5 coolest it would be a warm month….good thing we had both the extremes to make it pretty close to average.

If all 31 days were average it would be a warm month in Tolland

hm   the only thing notable so far about this entry into summer ( anyway) is that utter nondescript characteristic to the pattern.  the modelling has almost nothing really fitting a known mode - it's just a mottled mess of irregularly spaced wave features from S of Alaska to the Atlantic

at least for the next 2 weeks, it'd be difficult to predictively assess the temperature anomaly distribution
