    Yea......look at the absolute value of each to obtain a general idea of how strong the event is, but more importantly, it's the relationship between the RONI and ONI that is indicative of the type of response that ENSO may induce around the hemisphere. The latter is what we really need to understand because knowing how strong said response will be is pretty useless if we have no idea what the response will be. I suspect we are going to need the RONI to be at least equivalent or greater than the ONI to avoid yet another muted Aleutian low/se trough couple response. If we have a very strong El Nino with a lagging ONI, as was the case in 2023, then you get a very strong RIDGING response over se Canada and an Aleutian low/se trough that is still meager.

    This is why we are seeing less of an Aleutian low/se trough response.

    1957 is best subsurface map in terms of placement AND intensity of subsurface warm pool. It's also a good polar analog in terms of solar and QBO.

    Exactly the type of analogs I was speculating on. 2002 is similar, but obviously weaker. I think the issue will be the NAO...1991-1992 was awful because it was the only strongly positive NAO/weakly -PDO, which we may very well have this year.

    Got down to 23.2 this AM...recovered up to 53.1 39.6

    Gotta be careful, though....2023 mimicked modoki forcing, but it was because the west Pacific was so warm, so it actually created a MC influence...which was wretched.
  11. 40/70 Benchmark
    Yea, here, as well...except for 1982, which was around normal.

    Yea, the El Niño hype is unreal...and it has nothing to do with me having an aversion to a warm winter because I think that's likely, anyway.
  13. 40/70 Benchmark
    Even 1997-1998 had a great event just before XMAS up here...only one that had literally nothing was 1972...you could say 2015, but that season had the January blizzard, it just skirted south of me.

    I'll be shocked if we get through the early 2030's without a flip.
  15. 40/70 Benchmark
    Been my early hedge, as well. This doesn't necessarily preclude a very warm winter throughout the east, though.
  16. 40/70 Benchmark
    Okay, yes...fair post. To me, it makes sense that the strongest of ENSO events, which are El Niño, reverse....but I can't say definitively that that trend will not cease with more data. We will just have to see. I wasn't trying to be dismissive, so sorry if it came across that way.
  17. 40/70 Benchmark
    Thank you. January 7th, 2024 was an incredible event for me.

    You know we're screwed when Chris starts saying "it will be interesting to see".....thereafter, you can insert a means for the demise of the impending winter. Are you able to access the latest ERA 5 data...ie for the entire month of March? I am encountering the same issue as with NCAR...
  19. 40/70 Benchmark
    I don't expect it to be as warm as 2023-2024 in the northeast.
  20. 40/70 Benchmark
    It's undoubtedly the best indicator...follow the $.
  21. 40/70 Benchmark
    Do you have the link for the site that was used to generate that map?
  22. 40/70 Benchmark
  23. 40/70 Benchmark
    Chris, I am unable to use the ERA 5 data set to retrieve the latest data, either...am I missing something?
  24. 40/70 Benchmark
    What an absolute disaster that they have ended the NCAR reanalysis.
  25. 40/70 Benchmark
    Eh....maybe more like replacement level...say Darren Bragg https://www.fangraphs.com/players/darren-bragg/83/stats/batting
