donsutherland1 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Temperatures rose well into the 80s today in many parts of the region. Newark reached 90° for the 40th day this year and Baltimore reached 90° for the 50th time this year. Clouds will increase tomorrow ahead of moisture streaming northward from the remnants of IDA. It will be a warm day. Some locations could pick up a shower or thunderstorm. Wednesday into Thursday will be cloudy with heavy rain likely. Much of the region will see a general 2"-4" of rain with local amounts at or above 6". Flash flooding is likely on account of the saturated ground from excessive August rainfall. Overall, September will likely feature near normal to somewhat warmer than normal temperatures in much of the region. Fall 2021 will likely be wetter to much wetter than normal in the northern Middle Atlantic region. Since 1869, there have been 9 August cases where New York City picked up 20.00" or more rainfall during the summer. Two thirds of those cases (and 4/5 of those with summer mean temperatures of 73.0° or above) had 17.00" or more fall precipitation in New York City. 2011 is probably the closest match in terms of precipitation and a nearly identical summer mean temperature. Mean fall precipitation for those 9 cases was 14.86". The median was 17.35". The 1991-2020 normal value is 12.27". The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was 0.0°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was -0.3°C for the week centered around August 25. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +0.35°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged -0.47°C. Neutral ENSO conditions will likely prevail into at least mid-September. Afterward, La Niña conditions could begin to develop. The SOI was +28.22 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) figure was -1.399 today. On August 28 the MJO was in Phase 2 at an amplitude of 1.375 (RMM). The August 27-adjusted amplitude was 1.351 (RMM). Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied near 100% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal August (1991-2020 normal). August will likely finish with a mean temperature near 77.5° (1.5° above normal). Finally, with the Arctic Oscillation having turned negative, Arctic sea ice extent (JAXA) will likely fall below 5 million square kilometers for the first time this year in tonight's report for August 30. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibertyBell Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Don, so 2011-12 was neutral after la nina correct? Hence the awfully low snowfall totals after a quick start in late October. Since this winter will likely be a la nina can we expect it to be much colder than 2011-12 was but still an early snowfall (maybe not October, but perhaps November this time?) Just looking to see if you detected any trends with where fall and winter might be headed now that summer is coming to an end. And perhaps an early end to east coast tropical activity too, just like we saw last year, with no east coast TC after August? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How warm Region 1+2 is relative to Region 3.4 could make a big difference in the winter outcome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewave Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Newark moved into the 2nd warmest August spot with a +3.5 departure. Bridgeport is in 3rd place with only a +1.9 departure. ISP is in 5th place with a +2 departure. So the much warmer 1991-2020 climo makes it possible for some stations to have a top 5 warmest August at only a +2 departure.

donsutherland1 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Morning thoughts… Today will be partly to mostly cloudy and warm. A shower is possible in a few places, but most of the region should be dry. High temperatures will likely reach the middle and upper 80s in most of the region. Likely high temperatures around the region include: New York City (Central Park): 84° Newark: 88° Philadelphia: 85° Normals: New York City: 30-Year: 81.1°; 15-Year: 81.0° Newark: 30-Year: 82.5°; 15-Year: 82.5° Philadelphia: 30-Year: 83.7°; 15-Year: 83.4° Heavy rain from the remnants of Ida will impact the Middle Atlantic and southern New England regions during midweek. A general 3”-6” of rain with locally higher amounts is likely. Flash flood risks are elevate, as parts of the region have had an exceptionally wet last two weeks of August. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SACRUS Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 84/64 and some breaks in the clouds. With enough clearing today can push another 90 for the hot spots. Sep to open wet with remnants then a dry cooler weekend 9/3 - 9/6. Next week we watch another front potentially get hung up before warmer air arrives with rising heights into the east 9/10.
