But like most Ninas we will have to hope the snow happens in December and we get some help from the NAO. If not it’s a repeat of last year with an endless cutter parade. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be back on Long Island this afternoon. Yes, this is correct. That's why the temperature will likely peak in the lower 70s this week rather than the upper 70s or even lower 80s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The strong WAR seems to have kept the TPV locked in along the west side of Hudson Bay. So a strong -NAO/-AO isn’t much of a help for us if the WAR is too amplified. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until further notice it looks mild here with winter in the upper Midwest. The good news is Canada looks cold so hopefully it builds a base there.

As of now, just a typical Niña pattern. I do think it’s a good sign to see Canada cold and warm waters off the west coast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CIK62 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 GFS gets the last laugh guys! Starting tomorrow it has 10-straight 70-Degree Days and the cold is pushed ahead another day to the 30th. It is never getting here. IT IS NOT OF THE BODY----IT MUST BE ABSORBED............It Is The Will of La Nina! >>>>>Thank you Star Trek. Meanwhile Billings, Montana will probably have as much winter weather between Oct. 22-27, as we will have all winter here. 15" of snow and some near zero readings over that span. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Warmer conditions returned today. Temperatures will likely remain mainly above normal through the remainder of the week. One or more days could see much above normal temperatures. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was -1.2°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was -1.4°C for the week centered around October 14. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged -0.85°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged -1.10°C. La Niña conditions will likely prevail at least into mid-winter. The SOI was -6.71. Today, the preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) figure was -1.163. On October 18 the MJO was in Phase 5 at an amplitude of 2.400 (RMM). The October 17-adjusted amplitude was 2.592. Since 1950, there have been five cases where a La Niña developed during June-July-August or afterward following an El Niño winter. 4/5 (80%) of those cases saw a predominant EPO+/AO+ winter pattern. The most recent such case was 2016-17. 9/10 (90%) of the La Niña winters that followed an El Niño winter featured a predominantly positive EPO. In addition, from the larger pool of La Niña winters following El Niño winters, there were four cases where October saw the MJO in Phases 4-6 for 20 days or more: 1983-84, 1988-89, 1998-99, and 2016-17. All four cases featured an EPO+/AO+ winter. Three cases saw the MJO in Phases 4-6 for less than 20 days: 1995-96: 12 days, 2007-08: 6 days, and 2010-11: 6 days. Both 1995-96 and 2010-11 featured a predominantly negative AO. The latest ensemble guidance favors October 2020 falling into the former pool. Moreover, among the former pool, both 1988-89 and 1998-99 saw the MJO in Phase 5 with an amplitude of 2.000 or above as has occurred this year. Both those winters featured below to much below normal snowfall in the Middle Atlantic and southern New England areas. Select snowfall seasonal snowfall totals were: 1988-89: Boston: 15.5" New York City: 8.1" Philadelphia: 11.2" 1998-99: Boston: 36.4" New York City: 12.7" Philadelphia: 12.5" None of this is cast in stone. However, this is a plausible scenario should things evolve toward an EPO+/AO+ winter as is suggested on some of the current seasonal guidance. Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 85% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal October. October will likely finish with a mean temperature near 58.8°. Finally, Arctic sea ice extent remained just below 5 million square kilometers on October 18 (JAXA), which further extended 2020's record for the latest such occurrence of Arctic sea ice extent below 5 million square kilometers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 The PDO isn’t following the La Niña playbook this fall. This was one of the biggest PDO increases during a La Niña in October. But as we have seen since the record North Pacific warming in 2013, these monthly values can really jump around a lot. Last winter we went from positive in December to negative during January and February. It all comes down to how the North Pacific ridge behaves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, very uncommon to have all that warm water off the west coast in a strong Niña. This can change quickly with wind shifts but if it stays he could help this winter from being snowless. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdrag Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Good morning, Looks like some drizzle and showers have occurred NYC area early today. Suspect more coming tomorrow morning, and am not seeing a lot of sun or non marine influenced flow for our NYC area the next 2 or 3 days. Maybe Saturday for a real warm day? Nights will be very mild for sure. A dirty pattern I think. Epsilon doing it's thing per NHC and still 3-5 members of the GEFS trying to get something going near FL around the 25th-26th-the previous NHC 10% hold there is realistic. In the meantime...late 25th-27th... seems like we're going to be in quasi stationary baroclinic zone with a tropical connection via PWAT. Some generous precipitation anticipated ne USA... not impossible to see 1-3" in this period. For now we'll go with WPC but in a positive tilt situation...whereever the frontal boundary lays out, thats going to be the focus of decent qpf. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Fog is thicker and everything is now soaked. A half hour ago when I posted the paved surfaces were dry but now it's so thick that it's misting and has wet those down too. It's warm with temp at 57. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
