Isotherm Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Move out to rural Nevada. Some of the mountainsides get exactly what you would like almost every day in summer. But you probably wouldn't survive to enjoy the entire summer due to starvation. You'd have to adapt to a diet of rattlesnakes, buzzards, and jack rabbits in order to stay alive.

NYCSuburbs Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 I'm thinking that NYC should be able to make it to 65 degrees on Thursday with the current set up, perhaps a little warmer. High pressure off the coast, SW winds, partly sunny skies and a warm air mass should probably make Thursday the warmest day, depending on what happens with the cold front on Friday. The GFS is currently showing near 60 degrees, and from my experience it tends to be a couple of degrees too cold during warm spells. The ECM data on Weather Underground and the CMC easily show 60+ degrees as well. 6z GFS temperatures for Thursday: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow_Miser Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 This is really painful to look at. In a non-progressive pattern, this would have blown up into something big. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCSuburbs Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 This is really painful to look at. In a non-progressive pattern, this would have blown up into something big. Oh well. That was the radar from this morning - if only it would've actually been closer, more amplified and stronger... and tomorrow we get to watch yet another snowstorm miss us to the south. I'm really looking forward to spring just so I can forget about this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEG NAO Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 this will be remembered as one of the weirdest falls/winters on record -october snowstorm then only a few inches more for the entire winter and some areas further south in the mid atlantic will end up with more snow then NYC for the winter -unless we get a late season surprise snowstorm - in this winter anything is possible..all of this while being one of the warmest widespread winters on record in the east Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CooL Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 Makes sense given nothing in the pattern is favorable for cold and snow and we are rapidly heading into spring. Euro is very warm in the medium and long range with an abundance of upper 50's and 60's. Maybe even a 70 mixed in there as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feb Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 I sometimes look at models in summer to make sure there isn't some massive surge of heat coming. Man I hate the heat. And especially humidity. Perfect summer day: 75-80, partly cloudy, a dewpoint of 20 and a breeze of 10-15mph. This. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEG NAO Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 I wouldn't get that excited yet about any real long periods of warm weather yet - if you look at the PNA its is forcasted to go positve after about the 10th http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/precip/CWlink/pna/pna.sprd2.gif and the NAO is forcasted to start falling towards even about the same time - will it finally go negative ?http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/precip/CWlink/pna/nao.sprd2.gif the AO is positive now - don't have any outlooks for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean look at late Jan/Feb. We had a +PNA during that period until very late Feb. In this stretch, we had a RIDICULOUSLY long period of +32 temps, by my calculation the second longest ever in the Jan/early Feb period. We stayed above 30F for 3 whole weeks. In the dead of winter. Then we had the warmest Feb on record. In this period we recorded a whole 0.2in of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
