Tip accusing someone else of composing a migraine on paper haha

 

It was also learning experience for me, and others, to hone their understanding.

Outlook/research paper hybrid.

Easy solution if it doesn't suite you, don't read it.

But most chose to, so deduce from that what you may.

I know so much more regarding the underlying physics behind ENSO, than I did before writing that.

 

well, you should have said, 'Tip accusing Meteorological science et al of migraines on paper'   

 

after years of trying different styles techniques of delivery, at this point I'm pretty convinced there's no way to describe planetary wave decay without triggering a Zombie apocalypse ...  

 

It can't be done. I've embedded humor, pure 10 C jargon, ...making sure syllable counts don't tax the proletariat education base... you name it.  less than 50 % learning curve is observed. 

 

Mostly I blame the writer... Yeah, we can blame people for being dim, but in the end, should it not be incumbent upon the communicator to know his/her target audience and adapt the message accordingly... ?   

 

the answer is yes ...buuuuuut, it does try one's patients when the breakdown in comms is much less for lack of aptitude/capacity, and much more bias based upon a group''s fallacy in tenet ... if perhaps rooted in personal agenda.

i got a question ( i think I know the answer, but curious what others think...).

supposin' it was like +6 on the month hittin' the 20th, then, boom! like minus 8 for the last 10 days...

the month mean would be +2 or something (3 maybe whatever)... so, +2 or 3 November would certainly qualify as significant enough to offer the correlation to the schit winter.

But, would it ?

I mean... what if it went on to be -8 through the 15th of December... that would be almost a months worth of hugely negative departure, but just because it didn't fit squarely into the spatial-temporal rang of Nov 1 - 30th, it doesn't count?

it's why these correlations with autumn ..at least one reason in many, drive me to distraction.

agree I used to look at monthly stuff regarding temps, indices but have since come to understand the importance of transient states, periods of opposing weather.

I hear that.

 I learn by applying theory...I'm trained that way having spent 3/4 of my life within the friendly confines of academia.

I'm by no means a professional writer, nor met, but it doesn't stop me from trying to hone what skill exists in both capacities.

 

Sorry to have derailed.

Yeah, this kind of goes back to that criticism of putting too many boundaries on events, and event types, in nature. 

 

I think the existence of a thing carries as much significance, if not more, than when it happens in particular.  For me the when seems vaguely as important actually... Some years it might have been that cool snap in late August early September that exposes something about the system that ultimately causes a harsh cold snap at mid winter.  But NOPE - didn't happen in November?  forgeddabbowit -  Likewise, sure, maybe the exposing event happens on November 1, okay. 

 

I do think there is something to time... I mean, the average pattern residence is ...I think I read 45 days once.  But that's only an average.

Absolutely zero doubt that the Euro ensembles are trending colder in the medium to long range. This has been a 3 or 4 cycle process now. So it is starting to become more believable. I'll still want to see a few more runs, but the fact that it is not only holding serve, but actually improving, is very encouraging.

Yeah it looks to be building still at the end of the run into the CONUS

Looks like 1989, though the first part of Nov that year was more like +4 and the 2nd -10, followed by the coldest Dec on record - greatest departure for any month, AN or BN, for many stations.  Then the cold air disappeared, though it remained cool enough for NNE snow.

I think the only thing that my deserve more scrutiny is the -NAO, but the Pacific isn't a doubt IMO.

 

Yeah I'm not buying a sustained -NAO...though the possibility of a transient block there is becoming more likely. It would be nice though if we built a real block there that can get involved in the early December pattern.
