Well, the forecast surely looks like a fall pattern has set in. Time to start thinking about this next winter season!

Agreed. Next 10 days or so look to have some below average to some above average and the rest around normal. All in all no 80 degree days on the horizon save for next Wednesday in the Genesee Valley region of WNY. I see 60's to mid 70's most days with nights in the 50's...perfect beginning to fall.

Any thoughts on possible "Blob" correlation to colder/snowier winters here? Looks like another event similar to 14/15 shaping up out west.

Nino 3 warmed up a bit this week. Well behind 2017 for cold at this point, except in Nino 1.2 which is volatile.

CFS & Canadian have essentially opposite winter forecasts right now, with the CFS warm almost everywhere for SSTs and the new Canadian cold almost everywhere. 

The Weatherbell guys like a blend of 2013-14/2014-15 or 2013-14 (x3), 2014-15, 2018-19. That gives you a cold eastern tropical Pacific, with a warm western tropical Pacific. I have some issues with it as a blend, but it does look close to current SSTs. The West is generally wetter in winters after El Ninos for one. The sea ice was also a lot higher in 2013/2014 at the minimum extent in September. Also think Nino 4 will be a lot warmer than that blend, but we'll see. The ECMWF Nino 3.4 Sept 1 forecast updated should be out any day now, and the Jamstec is likely later in the week too.

The week of September 22nd has had some interesting outputs the last few days.  Every few runs it tries to phase a powerful tropical system with a very strong mid latitude storm which brings down ridiculously cold air (528dm heights!)  It never lasts more than a run but its exciting to see things like this popping up even if its straight fantasy at this point

It's almost that time of year. Fantasy storm season! What about them bills? I cannot believe they won with 4 turnovers. Historically speaking they had less than a 1% chance of winning that one. Hopefully we can beat the Giants this weekend.

Been showing this for a week in some form or fashion. Been awhile since I posted. From east side of rochester. Here is to fall winter season coming up. Think this me me a wild one for upstate. Lots of action this winter. More cold that not and plenty of snow. Warm water south of Alaska and near Greenland supports a focusing me mechanism of mean trof over great lake east coast.

Why do I see this whole area of convection just dry up before it gets to us...

It appears to be morphing into an MCS so it may organize and strengthen with nocturnal stability. If so I’m guessing it will start to turn right (south) as the night progresses.

NWS Buffalo Lake effect archive updated to include 2018-2019..(13 events)

https://www.weather.gov/buf/lesEventArchive?season=2018-2019&event=A

I saw that. Not quite the most accurate year for keeping track of events. They had a max snowfall of 5-8" across southtowns for the Jan 29-31st event. When I received over 20". I have pics of well over 2' from that storm. December was terrible last year. Hopefully we can have a good one this year.

Also forgot we had 2 pretty good events in November.

Also booked my trip to Peru Oct 13th-21st. Visiting these 3 spots and possibly a few more. Machu Pichu, Rainbow Mountain, and Humantey Lake. Cannot wait.

What an incredible trip. I have a friend who grew up in Cusco, that part of the world sounds like an amazing place.

That's where we are staying. Flying from Toronto-Lima-Cusco. I was told by a friend that just went there to not rent a car, everywhere I've traveled I've always rented. I want to do as much hiking as possible, but worried about the elevation there.

That looks stunningly picturesque! Especially rainbow mountain. Now to the 15 day...signs have been showing a rather chilly October for a couple months now so the end of the month possibility does not surprise me at all...its the slam on the brake summer weather that will be most surprising...but I'll take it at that time!!!

If you have some cardio in your workout routine you'll be fine. I think you've mentioned before here that you lift, I lift and do minimal (20 mins x 4 weekly) cardio and I was fine with the air in Bogata.
