This is the way.
Have you been up to CH this winter? It’s probably been meh up there the past couple of weeks with mostly old stale snow, but January wasn’t bad.
I’m glad we were able to suppress the pattern to get people south of us involved. Now we can miss in all directions.
But hey, at least it isn’t more rain.
Pot kettle black. It was loosely CC. Sorry you didn’t like a few posts discussing summer heat events. I’ll remember this when you mention snow in any JJA thread.
Yeah I know Hot Saturday was humid, but some of those sling psychrometers were juiced back then. I know ASOS has its issues, but at least all of the sites are on the same automated playing field today.
I guess it depends on how you define “extreme” wrt storms. If we’re talking the amount of precipitation, sure. If we’re talking temp gradients, pressure gradients, wind, min slp, etc…I don’t know about that.
Yeah I think we’re less extreme than we used to be. We have a lot more moisture in our airmasses the past 2 decades and thermodynamically that limits the heating and cooling potential of the airmass. We torch way more on mins than max temps. With the arctic warming faster that should make for shorter wavelengths and less meridional patterns too.
It may be different in dry/drought areas, but in the northeast I think temps are less extreme.
