Ottawa Blizzard Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 On 5/15/2022 at 2:07 PM, brentrich said: Unfortunately that will happen since ridge is building in the west and AO is trending negative. All signs are pointing that northeast will have cool/wet summer this year. So enjoy warm/hot weather till it last. Interesting. I've found that when we get an early heatwave, in early May, the summer often goes on to be cool. It happened in 2000 and 1992, if my memory serves me right. Mind you, I believe the 1991 Pinatubo eruption played a role in the summer 1992 consitions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
