Here's an interesting stat: 13 straight February's with +NAO (CPC). 10/13 have been >+1.00. For comparison, our last Winter month (DJFM) with any monthly NAO <-1.11 was Dec 2010.
-
65-66 would have been well above normal if it wasn't for strong -NAO. Not saying we can't have -NAO this Winter, it's more random vs ENSO
-
Best I could do is 20c isotherm depth, but here's most recent day vs that day in 1997 Depth average temp Edit: I found 1997's full subsurface profile
-
Going to be a really Super Nino. +8C has appeared in the subsurface. I think only 1997 matched this. I love strong events - because seeing how the global pattern responds gives indications about the current state of things.
-
+8C! How healthy does this look (also notice there's no major cold water building in the west)?
-
Long range models constantly had a 500mb trough over the Mid Atlantic, including the Euro. This held all Summer/Fall then in the Winter the long range Euro weeklies were constantly showing the same pattern, a trough over the Mid Atlantic. It didn't work out - 23-24 was the warmest winter on record for US.
-
So much for everyone saying we can't have Super Nino's so close together. That's what I want to stress with a lot of this ENSO stuff, historical data isn't extensive and different periods of time have different conditions that are not universal constants.
-
Everything is always green. We haven't been in a true drought since 2002.

Today's new CPC Winter forecast
-
Something interesting to ponder is after the 23-24 Super Nino, the Atlantic was warmest ever in 2024. Does the recent trend of -AMO prevail, or do we see the same warming next year (it did have a head start in 2023)?

New seasonal and monthly CPC for July and the late Summer looks like a good thunderstorm pattern forecast- 259 replies

2026 Mid-Atlantic Severe Storm General Discussion
Stormchaserchuck1 replied to Kmlwx's topic in Mid Atlantic
I notice the CPC doesn't even use AI models in their long range forecast, and I can verify that they don't have much skill at that range. EPS is probably still the way to go Saying "AI is the way to go" just makes you look smart imo, not a huge leap from previous models- 1,736 replies

Late May/June 2026 Medium/Long Range
Stormchaserchuck1 replied to JenkinsJinkies's topic in Mid Atlantic
PNA is finally going positive for the first time since early May, for the 2nd half of June. June as a whole will end up being the 5th consecutive month of -PNA though- 259 replies

Nino 1+2 is +2.8c! July in strongly warm Nino 1+2 years August and September are near average historically, for most of the country. Maybe not enough examples. Let's see if we get a cool October. If the PDO doesn't shift to neutral by then, it counteracts this.- 259 replies

Subsurface continues to look really healthy. TAO/Triton will probably pop >+8c in the next few days.
-
^I can never get U of Del Air Temp working on the correlation composite. Is there a secret to it? June will likely be the 5th straight month of -PNA (CPC). I've found that the correlation roll forwards are weak for what happens later in the year, surprisingly.
-
Moving a little more exponential the last few days Subsurface looks really healthy right now Let's see if the seasonal decadal trend of a ridge in the Rockies/SW gets suppressed this July

Arctic Sea Ice Extent, Area, and Volume
Stormchaserchuck1 replied to ORH_wxman's topic in Climate Change
Just haven't been able to get Summer Arctic ridging since the ice melt peak in 2012. 15 years is impressive for that record to hold, in this exponentially warming world. -

Ever since the Solar Max in May 2024, where a weakened magnetic field brought the aurora borealis very far towards the central part of the Earth - The warm season has been getting this cold 60-90N. At the end of last September, I think we had the lowest 500mb on record for the month in the N. Hemisphere, all time.
-
There is some overlap, but ENSO and the PDO effect different areas in the Pacific - ENSO is further east and PDO is further west.

I made a series of posts regarding the Winter, and things to watch out for later this year, in the Mid-Atlantic forum, starting here:
