donsutherland1 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 As of 7 pm, New York City had picked up 0.62" rain bringing its yearly total to 23.48". That is 2.09" above normal. Additional rainfall is likely tonight into the first part of tomorrow. Overall, the region remains in line for a general 0.50"-1.50" rainfall with some locally higher amounts. At present, the implied probability of New York City's seeing 50" or more precipitation is 62% (1971-2018 period). The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was -0.4°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +0.9°C for the week centered around June 5. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +0.08°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.80°C. Conditions consistent with El Niño appear likely to persist through at least late June in Region 3.4. The SOI was +8.15 today. Today, the preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) figure was -0.864. The AO has averaged -0.739 through the first 10 days of June. The ongoing blocking will likely continue through mid-month and then could slowly fade. At the same time, blocking is consistent with warmth on the East Coast during the middle and latter part of summer. Hence, should blocking generally persist, the prospects of a warm or perhaps very warm second half of summer could increase. With respect to the current month, there were 13 cases where the AO averaged -0.75 or below during the first half of June. The mean temperature for the second half of June usually fell within 1° of normal in the northern Middle Atlantic region. On June 9, the MJO moved into Phase 3 at an amplitude of 0.801 (RMM). The amplitude was somewhat lower than the June 8-adjusted figure of 1.092. Since 1974, 7 years saw the MJO in Phases 1 or 2 at an amplitude of 2.000 or above during the May 27-June 5 period. The mean temperature for those cases during the June 1-15 period in New York City was 68.2°, which was about a degree below the mean temperature for the entire period. Thus, the MJO signal may reinforce the idea of a somewhat cooler than normal to near normal first half of June indicated from the recent warming of ENSO Region 1+2. Based on the latest guidance, the implied mean temperature for the first half of June is about 69.6°. The second half of June, particularly after June 20th could feature warmer conditions relative to normal than what is likely through mid-month. The implied probability of a warmer than normal June in and around New York City is currently approximately 54%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 A new month and another US location picks up double-digit rainfall totals. The record wet pattern is forecast to continue for the US. The only question is whether one of our major climate sites records a double digit-rainfall month before this streak ends. Some smaller stations may have pulled this off last August. 2010’s 10.00”+ months for at least one of our major climate sites including airports and NYC Mar 2010 Aug Sep 2011 Jun 2013 Aug 2014 NORTH CAROLINA...

CIK62 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Wait for a TS born and bred over the Gulf Stream that sits/drifts on a stalled front for say 3 days. There is your double-digit month for some coastal city. What about the Connie/Diane duo-tagteam of 1955? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 With the exception of southern and eastern sections of the northern Middle Atlantic region, the general idea of 0.50"-1.50" rainfall worked out quite well. The excessive amounts shown on several runs of the FV3 (which likely indicates that the model is not ready for operational use) did not pan out. Rainfall amounts through 8 am included: Allentown: 0.89" Atlantic City: 0.97" Boston: 0.49" (rain was still falling) Bridgeport: 0.38" Islip: 0.41" New York City: 1.07" Newark: 0.97" Philadelphia: 0.38" Providence: 1.16" (rain was still falling) White Plains: 0.63" New York City's total precipitation at Central Park is now 23.93". Based on the 1971-2018 period, there is an implied 64% probability that New York City will pick up 50.00" or more precipitation. The lowest precipitation from June 12-December 31 was 11.33", which occurred in 1965. The highest was 47.14", which fell in 2011. Last year, 42.29" precipitation fell during that period.

Don, it looks like the FV3 will go operational tomorrow barring any last minute delays. Hopefully, they can fix the cold bias that produced all the fantasy snow for us last winter. https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2019/05/06/weather-service-says-its-upgraded-american-forecasting-model-is-about-ready-prime-time/?utm_term=.534f91df1092 https://www.weather.gov/media/notification/scn19-40gfs_v15_1.pdf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why I noted the excessive QPF. Its 500 mb scores are modestly better than those for the GFS. It still seems to have large misses on specific events. I will be interested to see how it fares with tropical cyclones and later potential winter storms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 In the wake of the recent rainstorm, year-to-date precipitation totals and anomalies for select cities are as follows: Allentown: 27.34" (+8.94"); Binghamton: 18.28" (+1.98"); Boston: 20.70" (+0.98"); Bridgeport: 22.41" (+2.97"); Harrisburg: 23.00" (+6.17"); Islip: 22.68" (+1.42"); New York City: 23.93" (+2.38"); Newark: 24.45" (+3.98"); Philadelphia: 20.72" (+2.65"); Portland: 23.55" (+2.82"); Providence: 25.29" (3.66"); and, Scranton: 20.19" (+4.86"). Another system could bring another 0.50" to 1.50" precipitation to parts of the region Thursday into Friday. Unlike with the recent system, there is a increased prospect that some locations could pick up 2.00" or more of precipitation. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was -0.4°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +0.9°C for the week centered around June 5. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +0.08°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.80°C. Conditions consistent with El Niño appear likely to persist through at least late June in Region 3.4. The SOI was +19.61 today. Today, the preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) figure was -1.090. The ongoing blocking will likely continue through mid-month and then could slowly fade. At the same time, blocking is consistent with warmth on the East Coast during the middle and latter part of summer. Hence, should blocking generally persist, the prospects of a warm or perhaps very warm second half of summer could increase. With respect to the current month, there were 13 cases where the AO averaged -0.75 or below during the first half of June. The mean temperature for the second half of June usually fell within 1° of normal in the northern Middle Atlantic region. On June 10, the MJO was in Phase 3 at an amplitude of 0.817 (RMM). The amplitude was somewhat higher than the June 9-adjusted figure of 0.797. Since 1974, 7 years saw the MJO in Phases 1 or 2 at an amplitude of 2.000 or above during the May 27-June 5 period. The mean temperature for those cases during the June 1-15 period in New York City was 68.2°, which was about a degree below the mean temperature for the entire period. Thus, the MJO signal may reinforce the idea of a somewhat cooler than normal to near normal first half of June indicated from the recent warming of ENSO Region 1+2. Based on the latest guidance, the implied mean temperature for the first half of June is about 69.1° (0.2° below normal). The second half of June, particularly after June 20th could feature warmer conditions relative to normal than what is likely through mid-month. However, exceptional warmth currently appears unlikely. The implied probability of a warmer than normal June in and around New York City is currently approximately 60%. Finally, with today's 98° maximum temperature, San Francisco smashed the old daily record of 88°, which was set in 1985. Yesterday, San Francisco had a 100° high. Until now, San Francisco had never had a 100° temperature prior to September 1. The June 1-11 period has had a mean temperature of 67.3°. The previous warmest first 11 days of the month occurred in 1960 with a mean temperature of 65.5°. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some pretty extreme heat out there since the PDO and NPM warmed so dramatically in recent years. The North Pacific warm blob has been dueling with the one off the East Coast.

Less warm is the new cool. @bluewave do you think that PDO dip in Jan ( heart of winter ) combined with the +SOI was partly the issue to the warmer weather and delayed pattern change to more robust winter outcomes on the East Coast? (I know there were many explanations ) Seems we ramped up the last 4 months. Nice post ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like all the record Pacific SST warmth west of the dateline produced more of La Niña response from the SOI, MJO, and Pacific Jet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
