Tell me we aren't in a state of Pacific multidecadal flux without telling me. February 2000, which was one of my primary analog seasons, and the 2000-2001 La nina (Weak Modoki, like this year) have something in common....they represented the transition from a -PDO period to positive. Difference is that was temporary, given the that the flip to multidecadal cold phase had just taken place in the late 90s (after mega 1997 el Nino). This is near the end of the multidecadal cold phase...see late 1970s.

Yes. Although I think the mean of this and the prosperous times is more the reality.
-
2005-2006 says "now we're even, b1tch".
-
The January PDO value was barely the highest value since Jan 2023, but you have to go back to August 2021 to find a value significantly higher.....the last time it was this high for a sustained stetch was the near the end of 2020.

Thanks.

I'll be shocked if the entire region isn't safely above average in snowfall for 2025-2026...obviously check back late next fall, but that is my prelimnary hunch.
-
I accept Jan 7, 2024 as retribution for the Jan 2022 screw job. Even though it wasn't the 30" blizzard that coastal areas got, a 19" jackpot as coastal zones got completely porked did the trick for me. Words can not adequately convey how much I fu(ing enjoyed that with every once of my being.

2020-2021 and 2021-2022 were regional respites, however, they were also opportunities for mother nature to spend time with me alone and "groom me" for the resumption of the larger scale regional abuse in 2022-2023.

We were due for one like that....had been since 2003-2004. We were due for a variety of different poison pills. We got the "La Nino" a la 1972-1973 last year.....1950s style bottomed-out RNA the previous year, death star vortex over AK and the arctic in 2019-2020. That about covers it- The complete Kama Sutra on how to sodemize the region from every angle and position imaginable has been written.

I'd still have preferred this to another torch not in the sense that it was any more pleasant, but due to what it likely portends moving forward with respec to multidecadal trends.
-
That's usually how it works out and I think we will begin to see a similar trend in 25-26.
-
My snowfall forecast has been good, at least.
-
I had 10-20" for Central Park.
-
I haven't ever done that.....blows to see you disheartened. We'll be back, dude...paying the dues.
-
No shot. 7 Consecutive terds.
-
I may have gotten similar...hopefully @Great Snow 1717 can confirm.
-
I was very pleased to awaken and see bare ground....the late start was a relief. Last thing I need is an inch of snow for my commute.
-
I remember playing in the snow with my friends in that because it was the only big event that season. I had about 10" in Wilmington, too.
-
We just did. I haven't had a near average snowfall season since 2017-2018.
-
Started late. I left at 530 and it wasn't doing anything.....hit around I495 and rain/snow mix commenced. All rain once I hit Everett/Chelsea.
-
10.5" depth. Down 4" from peak depth.
-
Its like the metoeorological equivalent of Final Destination....just uncanny.
-
You don't say?? Are you trying to imply that the 3" for me signaled on ginxy's clown yesterday may not come to fruition???
-
I hit 28.

Of course the support will wane for the coastal, but the pinweel through the lakes is full steam ahead. Last 6 years in a nutshell.
