We still have time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will follow Nino pattern and go with Jan and Feb as -2 Primary analog years:1953-54 and 1985-86 Secondary analog years with first two having more weight: 1986-87 and 2010-11. Also 1954-55, 1980-81, 1983-84, 1991-92, 2019-20. Couple of lousy years, some solid cold ones, major storms not showing up. Might battle suppression this year. At least way better than last few. What criteria did you use to identify analogs? I ask because there is almost nothing that all of these years have in common which is odd for an analog set. They are incredibly divergent and at glance seemingly random, with respect to every major global climate indicator we track. For example wrt enso its almost an even mix of Nina, Nino, and neutral seasons. Equally with PDO, QBO, Solar there is a mix of divergent seasons. What do these seasons have in common that makes them analogs to this year? 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nino, -QBO, high strat water vapor from HT-HH eruption, insanely warm oceans from the underwater volcanoes, etc. Will definitely be papers written about this year. I don’t have a strong feeling for how it all shakes out besides thinking we’ll average DJF above normal temps and probably wetter than normal. This winter will be one to remember. All those forcings are going to bring incredibly excessive rains and also palisadic-magnitude snows in places that usually do not get ridiculous snows. Like the Washington DC Region this winter. I want those meteorological papers made available to the average person, because I will download, read then memorize every last one of them. One will be about a blizzard in the DC/MD/Va region.

That could hypothetically lead to a winter with a mix of southern sliders that cannot phase and get suppressed by the N stream, and late developing N stream dominant systems and clippers that affect areas further north...this would also cause a snow dead zone in between.... I wonder where that zone would end up??? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

40/70 Benchmark Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 I can't think of a physical reason, aside from maybe the unfavorable Pacific not allowing the s stream to amplify enough to run the orgy all the way up the coast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nice visual aside, I imagine the warmer gulf and carribbean (over 30c right now) might get the SS to amplify more and shift the storm track a bit north, so what used to be a deep southern slider and a MA miss may become a MA hit. Also what used to be a MA hit SNE miss may hit SNE instead. Could be wrong, so we’ll see. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Strange but I don't think I've ever actually seen a Woolly Bear myself. I do remember in northeast OH, Dick Goddard (the local and very good met there for decades...may he rest in peace!) hosted the annual Woolly Bear Festival every fall! It was quite popular and still going on each year I believe. And on another note, how much for Short Pump and that place in PA???

ldub23 Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 We have had a pattern of lows forming off the SE coast and moving offshore. If this pattern repeats in dec-feb it will be quite snowy especially I-95east Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
