Most +NAO today since before 2005

It looks like we are very close to the highest daily reading for May. A 2009 corals study detected greater swings in the NAO. Some of the highest and lowest values at different times of the year were recorded since then.

Obviously we will take it. It had helped produce some of the most exciting weather of the 2000s

Yeah, we have alternated between record Atlantic and Pacific blocking. When one sector was unfavorable the other got the job done. It's remarkable that there were only 3 dud winters since 2002-2003. Not many people would have made this prediction following the 96-97 to 01-02 snow drought.

It looks like today is the highest of all daily readings at least since at least 1998, 7,000+ days. I bet there's a map for the hurricane season.

I posted this in another thread , its not about Spring but it is banter , " I could use some help here. I am trying to find out on which dates we had accumulating snow this season and if possible how much snow actually fell on those dates ? Is there a website or link to tell me how much snow fell during these individual events or in my particular area in Rockland County ? Thanks for any help

The North Atlantic cold pool was nearly the coldest on record for April. If the latest Euro seasonal is correct for JJA, then it's a continuation of this pattern.

1) +NAO trough near Southern Greenland

2) Western Atlantic Ridge near SE Canada and New England

3) Continuation of big ridge near Alaska

April SSTs were the 4th warmest on record compared to all other Aprils from 1855 to present. [Alternate headline: April SSTs coldest in 4 years!]. Areas in red had the warmest April SSTs on record. #ERSSTv5pic.twitter.com/31HLRJWnmD

given us being stuck in a western ridge pattern a strong WAR is the only way we will get a warm summer

I busted a wheel in a pothole at 4:30 this morning and it took AAA 4.5 hours to get a tow truck out. What a disgrace.

Front tire randomly popped while parked yesterday, I was actually sitting in the car when it happened. Tow truck guy came an hour later, jacked it up, started taking the wheel off and the car rolled right off the jack. Front bumper came off and everything.

I can change a tire, but that was always one of my biggest fears, next to the spare flying off while driving.

Looks like April was the highest ranking US cold departure month of the 2010's so far. 

https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/news/national-climate-201804

During April, the average contiguous U.S. temperature was 48.9°F, 2.2°F below the 20th century average, making it the 13th coldest April on record and the coldest since 1997. Record and near-record cold temperatures stretched from the Northern Plains to the Gulf Coast and Northeast. The Southwest was warmer than average.

November 2014 was the previous coldest departure month for the 2010's.

https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/national/201411

The average contiguous U.S. temperatureduring November was 39.3°F, 2.4°F below the 20th century average. This ranked as the 16thcoldest November in the 1895-2014 record, and was the coldest November since 2000.

This may be a signal for fewer than 30 days reaching 90 degrees at Newark in 2018. It will be interesting to see if the smaller sample size following La Nina winters has any similarity to this year.

 

Top 20 coldest Aprils since 1950 following La Nina and El Nino winters....# of 90 degree days at Newark

 

#2....1975 La Nina winter...............12 days

#3....1983 El Nino...........................40 days

#5....1997  close to weak La Nina....20 days

#9....1950 La Nina...........................18 days

#11...1953 El Nino...........................32 days

#13...2018 La Nina...........................2 so far

#12...1973 El Nino...........................31 days

#17...1956 La Nina..........................14 days

#19...1995 El Nino..........................33 days

#20...1970 El Nino..........................22 days
