UW-weather Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Hey everyone, so i have searched the internet to find the most commonly referenced analog years for this winter. I came up with 1978, 2009, 2010, then plug into a computer program to get temperature anomalies. Thoughts?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisconsinwx Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Hey everyone, so i have searched the internet to find the most commonly referenced analog years for this winter. I came up with 1978, 2009, 2010, then plug into a computer program to get temperature anomalies. Thoughts?! I think a lot of people are referencing 09-10 as an analog for hype effect, especially since that featured a prolonged -NAO. I see a year like 03-04 fitting the bill a bit more accurately. Also have seen 02-03 tossed around, which won't enamor many on this board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 2009-2010 would be a great repeat! Would not care for 2002-03 or 2003-04. Two winters that were back to back clunkers. I think there will be a SE ridge this winter, so I expect the cold to plunge most west then be angled towards the Atlantic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just under average for snowfall, but had a very quality snowy and cold January, which bumped it up to average in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I'd be leery of years with a big positive or negative ENSO signal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAFF Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Seems like every fall a huge number or referenece to the 1970s are made. Seldom with any resulting substance in the spring. Could this be the year of change ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
