Social media has fostered an enormous proclivity for the development of these highly superficial and useless maps in the place of in-depth analysis.

Here is a crazy idea...how about objectivity over negativity and positivity? Just a thought- -

Winter is far more interesting to me. -

I love how some resign themselves to a winter absent of snow or cold, and then throw temper tantrums when tornado alley doesn't wind a path into New England during the summer. -
Take that source with a giant grain of salt....the Europeweather site views everything through snow/cold goggles.

That Andrej Flis dude is such a weenie....always finds a way to end up with a cold/snowy narrative.

Looks like something an Accuweather forum member made while on acid.

2026-2027 Record-breaking El Nino

Extremely doubtful considering our level of skill and overall understanding of seasonal forecasting remains in it's infancy. -
2026-2027 Record-breaking El Nino
40/70 Benchmark replied to Stormchaserchuck1's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
I think so, as well...however, that isn't the absolute certainty that it was 20-30 years ago. If you don't feel as though the development of a massive Aleutian low would affect the winter forecast, then I'm not sure what to tell you...you are essentially disregarding the extra tropical influence of ENSO, which isn't particularly wise during the strongest event in recorded history. I couldn't disagree more, especially considering how the entire Pacific basin has been predisposed to a cool ENSO orientation for the past decade. Take a look at winter 2023-2024 and consider how that winter would have been different with a bonafide Aleutian low. -

2026-2027 Record-breaking El Nino
40/70 Benchmark replied to Stormchaserchuck1's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
That isn't my point.....I'm not saying that it necessarily should have flipped by now, but considering what has gone on over the course of the past decade, nothing is a foregone conclusion with respect to to the PDO. I'm with you on that, but it's not a non-issue, as you seem to imply. -

No it isn't, since the PDO has yet to respond to said record breaking El Niño. -

Lets get cloudy, cool weekend afternoons with the sound of football filling the airwaves, and the scent of smoke in the nasal passage with rake in hand. -

If I had my way, it would be drizzle and 43 all weekend, so it's fine by me.
