jbenedet Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 GFS continues to hint at a big storm potential around days 7-9. It’s a long shot but it’s all I’ve got, with this crappy pattern holding strong... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another 40ish day. At least no complaints about my pond not being full That's due to no willows in the yard. With aspen having full-length catkins like the one in the center, any willows would be showing first blush. Other than that, looks about the same as my area, red maples in flower but nothing much happening to other trees. It has been a good April until recently to be honest. We had a great stretch near mid month. Since about 10 days ago it’s been poop. Location, location, location. April was my cloudiest of 21 and the average max topped only 2007 - and that month featured storms of 18.5" and 11.2" to compensate for the lack of warmth.

Typhoon Tip Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 It's amazing ... the only offset cool region spanning the entire planet's thermal source and sink budget amid the fervor of a raging hockey-stick GW era is over New England - whole planet, hot.

Typhoon Tip Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Heh... Labia current isn't really the problem... The problem is the general systemic support for causing -NAOs and the tendency for cyclones to spin up and whirl through the lower Maritimes... When these occur, this happens: I mean obviously you know that/this ...just annotated for the general audience... Anyway, the Lab can exist in it's cold and we don't have to keep ending up this way in spring... but we are, and granted, its not helping our cause when the above tendency then passes over and couples with that cold heat sink ( no ) ...however, it's not a prerequisite setting this up - it's coming from some kind of global bias/hemispheric systemic circulation tendency ... which I sighted half sarcastically to be a part of GW .... though there is some semblance of science behind that presumption.

Typhoon Tip Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 How about that... eastern CT opened up... hi res vis loop argues sun spills to the earth there... Tendency to expand too - There's a suggestion here that the BD momentum ( despite the alarmingly suggestive annotation I provide above ) is waning. What's interesting looping ... the strata and fog in Maine is started moving back NE... while the stuff in southern NJ is stationary...That suggests the pulse-source for the overnight acceleration of the BD down the seaboard has stopped. It's a pooled thing now... We'll test the May sun ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is extremely interesting and the concept makes tremendous sense. From my understanding (and we talked about this a bit in oceanography) one of the major disruptions to the global energy/heat balance is with regards to the transfer of energy from the Pacific to the north pole (just speaking northern hemisphere here). The flux of northward energy has strengthened big time while the southward flux of energy (cooler air to yield the balance) is not as strong...hence the imbalance. This would strengthen the theory for increasing ridging in the EPO ridging which obviously would yield higher potential for a downstream trough...with downstream being our fanny. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
