I'm a complete weather weenie, rainstorm, tropical conditions, harsh cold. As long as we have the cold, I could care less about the snow. I can wait, sometime I am not used to saying *cough cough*

id rather have 60's and sun if it isn't gonna snow. nothing worse than a nice sunny day and it being below freezing, kick in the nuts by the snow gods if you ask me :lol:.

:lol: back on topic! still looking like a period of relaxation end of this month into beginning of December. Wild card is going to be when the -NAO will once again establish itself like we saw in October.

There 2 events upcoming ( albeit small ) events.  Some may see the 1st flakes Friday night onto the coastal plain .

 

Next week is still alive for  Rain possibly changing to Snow .  Thanksgiving week looks above normal but a  Pos PDO Neg EPO regime should rule the day in the LR as the Pacific should push the pattern this winter .

 

Getting the NAO to go and stay NEG  is a crap shoot , one would think it should according to the analogs but I am focused on the next 5 days and will take 2 weeks a time .

agreed. its been one or the other the past several winters. its a rarity to have both the pacific and atlantic cooperate

Since this month was supposed to torch and it clearly isn't anything beyond a week out can change rapidly.

It would be unusual if this year didn't turn out snowier and blockier than normal because every analog and indicator suggests it will. If it doesn't then it'll be a huge bust and another topic of research just like the 2013 Hurricane season.

I and others just need to relax because it's barely mid November and indeed there's already snow chances and cold air on the table.

How is that fail, I could pull out tons of years where they were supposed to shine, but they busted. The ending about the bad feeling its my opinion, all signs are pointing to me being wrong about that opinion, but still I am allowed to say it. 

Well, yes, it's meteorology; nothing is a given. I guess I just don't see the logic in "something could go wrong, therefore it probably will".

We are going to go into a relaxation period sometime before the real winter starts.

I know we will because we can't sustain such anamolous departures for too long. There could be a few relaxation periods during winter. It's why we average snowfall in the 20s and because we're only at 40N and I get that and hopefully people understand it's never going to be cold and snowy all winter long.

I'll be happy with one 12"+ storm this winter honestly with a few smaller events surrounding it. A 40" winter would be great and anything more is a bonus.

I have been following weather for a LONG LONG time, and sometimes you don't need all this damn science, cause look how many times it has screwed us into thinking we would have a huge winter. I just have a bad feeling for some reason.

 

Please use the banter thread for all of this nonscientific speculation.

The ignoring science part rubbed me the wrong way considering this is supposed to be a science-based board.

Anyway back to the November discussion.

I keep seeing people say this, and I don't think thats exactly what we're looking for. Instead, I would say a highly variable NAO index with the monthly mean on the neg side is more what we would be looking for if I'm not mistaken

Winter cancellation calls in early November? I'm not shocked at all because we went through this same exact mantra early last November.

If anything, we should not be rooting for accumulating snowfall in November for NYC because accumulating snowfall in November usually precludes lackluster winters around these parts. A trace or a coating of snow, however, is encouraging to see.

 

In fact, we should all be frisky right now because we are following the same monthly progression with regards to temperatures when compared to last November. Mild for the first half of the month, followed by a 7- to 10-day arctic blast. After that, we warmed into the 50s during rainstorms in the first part of December for about a week. Thus, it makes sense that we will see a moderation in the pattern later this month into early December.
