Last summer was as frontloaded as you can get temperaturewise. The highest temperature was reached in June, and the summer was pretty much over on July 31.

An interesting trend with the QBO this decade, with it wildly swinging back and forth from +QBO to -QBO each year): 2020-21: +QBO (11.15) 2021-22: -QBO (-26.34) 2022-23: +QBO (12.89) 2023-24: -QBO (-25.86) 2024-25: +QBO (13.78) 2025-26: -QBO (-26.92) 2026-27: +QBO? (2027-28: -QBO?) (2028-29: +QBO?) -

1982-83 was a classical backloaded winter in the mid-Atlantic. In addition to the February blizzard, there was a snow/freeze event on April 19-20. Places as far south as North Carolina got a hard freeze. -
Do you know what is causing the wild temperature swings this spring and summer? This is like the 5th month in a row, dating back to March, where we have set a new temperature swing record.

2026-2027 Super El Nino

If the Eastern US is going to be cold in a strong/super el nino, I feel like the record warmth will have to be centered around the PNW or southwestern Canada. (2009-10's record warmth was centered around southwestern Canada, which had an effect on the 2010 Winter Olympics.) The fact that there is a warm signal in southwest Canada is promising. -

PHL at 101 at 4 pm. This is the first time PHL has ever reached 101 on 3 consecutive days. -

Barring a major volcano, I'm almost certain next summer in the Eastern US is going to smash the average temperature record, even if the hottest day won't reach the highs of 2011 and this year, especially if we transition to a strong la nina. I'm almost sure that if Pinatubo didn't happen, 1992 would have been another record warm summer in the East, along with the rest of the 1991-95 period. -
PHL is at 101 Reading 102 ABE reached 100 (first 100 since July 22, 2011)

Yeah, NWS Mt. Holly no longer has to tweet about Lehigh Valley Airport not reaching 100 degrees since 2011. They can just focus on tweeting that average temperatures are ~2F warmer now than in 1925. -
That's probably right. PHL's heat index was 129 and dewpoint 82.
-
Now, it's time to see if ABE or Wilkes Barre-Scranton get to 100. ABE last hit 100 on July 22, 2011, and Wilkes Barre-Scranton last hit 100 on July 15, 1995.

Yep, triple digits is a sure bet for almost all of the region. Today is going to rival 7/15/1995 and 7/22/2011. -
Yep, CPK is going to hit 100 today, as is almost the rest of the region. This is going to rival 7/22/2011.

Even December 2001 was near record warm, so the cold period was really 2002-2010. Heck, you could even make the argument the cold period for December ended in 1989. Decembers from 1990 forward average 4 degrees warmer than the Decembers from 1960-1989 here at PHL. -

Official low at PHL was 80 per the 6-hour obs. We're going to challenge the 83 set in the 2010 and 2011 heatwaves. -
First time since 2011 that we're going to get widespread 100s. Even in 2012 and last year, when there were 100s in the region, not everybody hit, and there was a chance it would just miss. But today and tomorrow look like no doubters for almost all of the region, like 7/22 and 7/23/2011.

2026-2027 Super El Nino
PhiEaglesfan712 replied to Stormchaserchuck1's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
If the monthlies still say cold when get to the fall, then that's the time to start paying attention. I know strong and super el ninos usually mean warm winters, but if the monthlies are still showing a cold signal for winter in the fall, then you know something is up. -
Then, it's going to be a very, very rare event. EWR has only hit 107+ once (108 on 7/22/2011).

1997 was close to neutral 2004 was close to neutral 2018 was a modest +QBO. I'll give him that one. That was a meh December (and winter overall), not an all out blow torch, like the other 5 +QBO/el nino Decembers. -

Our last backlash nina period had one great snow season (2010-11) and a 5-month torch from November-March (2011-12).
