There won't be a cane. 

Something will pop in the subtropics eventually, but this ain’t it.

Today was actually the first day I started thinking about my annual peak season forecast. It’ll be a dead basin this season, but how dead is TBD.

IDK some models have hints of it besides the GFS..  would be OTS anyways but I'm going on a 3 hour fishing trip out of Seabrook NH next Saturday so would be rough 

Water temperatures are way too cold once you quickly get north of NC and there will be a lot of upwelling early next week.

You would need probably a high end 3 or 4 approaching the Carolina coast and rapidly accelerate northward to get a cane hit here. Otherwise any system is would transition to extra-tropical or sub-tropical extremely quickly.

I was doing some digging last week and some of the extended guidance seemed to want and relax wind shear across the MDR a bit, however, I wasn't particularly sold and was wondering if that was a product of guidance in the extended favoring climo and wanting to decrease shear as we get closer to peak climo. Waters in the MDR are also pretty meh. Will continue to be a focus for home brew, especially as we start getting more active with fronts.

I can’t say I looked extensively, but I know the buoy south of Block Island was like 69° a couple days ago. Over recent summer those waters have been warmer.

 

Edit: now 65°

If you were a boy scout you know the largest boy scout camp in New England is in Yawgoog. 

Is that where the ski area is too?

Decent cold patch off the coast that's developed in the last few weeks...

Yawgoo Valley, last ski area in Rhode Island! Don't know if it is still open. You drove down the hill past the slopes to get to the base.

Yep.  Still operating.   Their season passes are incredibly expensive.  lol

I remember seeing that place on the ski reports back in the day. What a name lol.

Used to do some night skiing back in the 70s when I was at URI.

Everyone had enough of the rain? I know I have. Unfortunately it looks like more in the coming weeks

Fortunately, you’ll have that this winter when you’re the only one getting frozen.

Idk what these radar echoes are even doing anymore. There’s literally echoes moving away from Winni while some just to the west are going in the opposite direction. In the end the vector is away from the coop and lake.
