Medium-long range thread

Seriously, why are you trolling me in this thread? You keep popping in here like what I post is in anyway applicable to you or that you add any value to the conversation. Here's a hint: you don't.

you live 100 miles north of me. We get the same weather and this is the only medium range discussion on the board right now. I have disagreed with your views that cold is coming back for sometime and i dont see any signs of a wintry pattern for us.

Yeah, except for the fact that the area between you and me is pretty significant as far as anomalies go this month, same for the area between PHL and LGA. Look at February, PHL was near normal and DCA was like 4F warmer than normal. Snow is over for the most part and I've said as much.

And beyond that, you've offered no analysis and that's the annoying point. I'm ok with people disagreeing with me. I'm still new at this and certainly far from perfect. But just dropping in and telling me I'm wrong is dumb and pointless.

Ok, now that the 11-15d GEFS mean has flipped, I'm a bit more concerned about my forecast.

First time i have actually looked at the medium/long term in a while. To me this is basically the december pattern minus the -nao. December consistently featured a -pna, but what helped us was the extreme blocking. Take that blocking away and you get what we have now. Even with a neutral to -epo, there is nothing to bring down the cold. The nao is raging positive which is causing glancing blows of cold. The MJO, does look to go into a favorable period, but align that with the other teleconnections and its trumped. Honestly, IMHO our pattern is dominated by 2 things The nao and ao in winter time. This december was a classic example of how the atlantic can dominate a ****ty pacific, when those teleconnections are alinged accordingly. The next 2 weeks continues to look like a cutter breeding ground with days of warm and days of cold. Snow i think is basically done with unless we can get a clipper or changeover from rain as a storm is moving out. Tropical and thunderstorm thread may be hoisted in the next coming weeks as we get closer to their timeframe.

Anyone else think we stand to see a significant tropical threat this summer with continued high pressure locked in over the Atlantic? Seems like Hurricanes would be in a favorable enviornment under the high and then turn the corner into the SE US as they round the corner.

Might as well make a thread on it, instead of mucking this one up

Yup, seems like we are in this rollercoaster pattern wrt temps for a while.

Not to add to JI's trolling but...

Those say PHL +2.4, DCA +3.6

lol i don't want to even start discussing it, its not even worth wasting valuable energy typing about it.

You cant resist though. Even though you are in spring mode, deep inside you are craving a last hoorah. GFS before truncation looks like it was setting up a heavy rain to snow bomb as well.

LOL. Super fantasy range model concensus.
