Looks like portions of the Southeast will make a run on their warmest May. I already see a bunch of +5 to +6 departures before the hottest part of the month arrives. It has it's pro's and con's. Much more things to do up on LI although I cannot argue with the cheap cost of living down here, which was my primary reason for moving off the Island. I'd still be living there if it was not so expensive. It's been very wet here since I got here with the exception of the last 8 days or so, complete turnaround to bone dry. Even the current dew points in the 60s feels dry. 87/62 now Hoping you guys get a good summer up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must confess it did take me awhile to get down to the beginning of the sounding explanation. I did read it through and will need a number of re-reads and an actual application attempt before I am sure if anything stuck.

donsutherland1 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was -0.1°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +0.7°C for the week centered around May 15. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +0.10°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.79°C. Conditions consistent with El Niño appear likely to persist through May in Region 3.4. However, some fluctuation to warm neutral conditions is possible for at least some time. The SOI was -5.65 today. Today, the preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) figure was -1.878. The AO has now been at or below -1.000 or 17 consecutive days. Overall, the AO is likely to be at or below -1.000 for at least half the days during the second half of the month. Such situations have often been followed with readings within 1° of normal during the first 10 days of June. On May 21, the MJO was in Phase 8 at an amplitude of 1.766 (RMM). The amplitude was somewhat lower than the May 20-adjusted figure of 1.849. The MJO has now been in Phase 8 for 9 consecutive days. During the May 5-15 period, the MJO reached Phase 7 with an amplitude of 2.000 or above on two days. Since 1974, three years saw the MJO in Phase 7 with an amplitude of 2.000 or above during that same timeframe. The mean May 21-31 temperature was 67.9°. The warmest was 2011 with a mean temperature of 71.2°. However, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly averaged +0.62°C during May. The coldest was 1996 with a mean temperature of 64.5°. Then, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly averaged -1.31°C. During the last 6 weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +0.12°C. Therefore, the kind of chill that was seen in 1996 appears unlikely. A figure closer to the 2011 average is more likely than something below the overall average. At present, the guidance suggests a mean temperature of 70.1° for the May 21-31 timeframe. In addition, all three cases saw monthly high temperatures in the upper 80s or above in the northern Middle Atlantic region and middle and upper 80s or above in southern New England. The core of the warm anomalies during the remainder of May will likely be focused over the Southeast. The heat could push up the East Coast on one or two days. The potential exists for the 90° isotherm to approach or reach the northern Mid-Atlantic and southern New England areas during the height of the warmth. With potential record-challenging heat likely during part of this period, Atlanta will likely establish a new all-time monthly record high mean temperature. The existing record is 74.8°, which was set in 1996 and tied in 2018. The implied probability of May 2019's setting a new record high mean temperature for May is 71%. Select Statistics for Atlanta: Mean Temperature (May 1-22): 73.7° (6th warmest) Estimated Final May 2019 Average: 75.9° (likely range: 75.0°-76.8°) Warmest May on Record: 74.8°, 1996 and 2018 Finally, the sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance suggests that the implied probability of a warmer than normal May in New York City is 72%.

doncat Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 This month continues the theme with above normal precipitation here...only one month out of the last 16 has been below normal. This year isn't too far above normal but just enough each month. Last year though was excessive with nearly 70" falling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoSki14 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Looks like we're back in the slight risk for severe storms later today. Enhanced covering most of PA into West NJ border.

gravitylover Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Sun is coming out here through partly/mostly cloudy skies and the wind is coming up. Sounds like things are moving around and we'll see some storms later. I hope not but that's what I expect to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
