Did anyone else partake in last night’s car topper event?  I just looked outside and I have a thin coating of snow on most surfaces.

I noticed some very light snow/ flurries or a few minutes last night.  Denville NJ Morris County 600ft elevation.        No accumulation.

Warmest January on record so far for many stations from the Mid-Atlantic to New England.

It's like rooting for a terrible sports team that has no shot of making the playoffs and the season is only half over.  Just end it and get to free agency and the draft.

As a Detroit Lions fan, this is the story of my life. Even the Lions performed better than Winter '22-'23 this season, not a good look Winter '22-'23.

Incredible. Even a near normal January would feel frigid compared to this

Very unusual January 500 mb pattern for a La Niña. The strong Aleutian Low and California flooding was like a super El Niño. But there was no Nino trough over the SE US. More of a La Niña SE Ridge-Western Atlantic Ridge with the record warm pool off the East Coast.

so the warmup should commence around Feb 8th and last until the 21st Don?

 

It would start during the second week of February. It's tough to pin down the exact dates. Then, it could continue for 1-2 weeks, but skill drops off sharply, so we'll have to see where things stand. There is some support on yesterday's EPS weeklies for such an outcome.

The last 5 days of January are averaging    40degs.(36/45) or +7.

Month to date is     43.3[+9.5].         January should end at      42.6[+8.9]  Second Place.

Reached 57 here yesterday{midnight}.

Today:    41-44, wind w., p.sunny, 37 tomorrow AM.

GFS prepares to make Week 2 of February like Week 1 of January.        Maybe 3 cold days [Feb. 2-5] then too mild for winter weather.      It gets the snow right for the next 10 days at 0"---because it has no precipitation at all!     Differs from other outputs.

1674799200-pgbngk0WNoU.png

37*(73%RH) here at 6am.    39* at 9am.     41* at 10am.       41* at Noon.        42* at 2pm.      43* at 3pm.       40* at 6pm.       38* at 9pm.      37* at 10pm.

Yes. The record fewest such days in January is 4. That occurred in 1932.

POU hasn’t had any days yet with a 32° or lower high temperature.

Looking at the seven day forecasts they have temps dropping off a cliff on Tuesday into the 30s for highs, I hope that waits a day I dont want the January avg temps to be tainted on the last day (it should be a 30 day month anyway).

Any idea why this happened, Chris?

Was this similar to the pattern in Jan 1932?

But you just know all the denialists will point to no human made climate change because of that January 1932 record, that's why it needs to be taken down.

I don't see how we dodge next week. Models have snow south of us and the trend has been north all season

While the above is my first instinct too I wouldn’t necessarily use the rest of the winter as a guideline to forecast next week. We haven’t really had the type of cold airmass we’ll have next week so everything could get squashed south.

Which is why I'm not convinced a Nino next winter will help. Seem a Nino got us into this mess. Besides, we need changes in the Atlantic as well (regardless of ENSO).

If we get nothing next week it’s over until next winter. CPK. Will most likely finish with 0.0 on the year, which is incredible 

Through March 1st or March 20th?   No doubt its been terrible and doesn't look good, but betting on 0.0 for the year would be a brave bet, just because something somehow always materializes, however weak or late in the game it may be.
