What the reason is, I don't know. But NONE of the other maps show these flaws, and WB has a lot of long range maps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brooklynwx99 Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 it's nice that the MJO was able to cycle through the cold phases. looks like we'll be making a pass towards them as we approach the holidays 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluewave Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 Western Trough starting to make a comeback after not being much of a factor in September and October. The competing marine heatwaves combining with the MJO 1 in November is much warmer than past events. So a relatively cooler phase in the past for much of the CONUS is getting muted while the warmer phase in October was greatly amplified. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

November 2021 looks like a very good analog month for December. January is going to torch (like December 2021), though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FPizz Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 On 10/9/2024 at 9:09 AM, George001 said: seasonal ACE is now up to 130 thanks to hurricane Milton going nuclear and deepening significantly more than expected by the models. Milton has already produced nearly 20 ACE, and we may be looking at an ACE of 135-140 once Milton falls apart. On average we see around 20 ACE after today, which means we are looking at potentially a 150+ ACE season despite just a couple weeks ago the hurricane season looking like a complete bust. Things can change fast in weather, something worth keeping in mind during the winter as well if things start slowly. I just asked in the hurricane thread, looks like we are at 159.8 thanks to @GaWx.

40/70 Benchmark Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 I really don't see the value in posting volumes of support for a warm winter at this point....I mean, while you're at it, maybe dig up some tweets from scientists arguing that the world is round? I think at this point of the season, there is more value in thinking outside of the box and envisioning what, if anything could go "wrong" from a consensus perspective. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont live on the east coast so ill just say it. The problem is if/when those deviations occur, a few of the posters who have those warm biases will simply dismiss them or ignore them all together. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormchaserchuck1 Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 5880dm in Ireland tomorrow! -NAO holds through hr384 on 12z GEFS. The 10mb level is cold, so this is a bit of an anomaly. I was thinking because of how extreme the +NAO has been this year, it would have to flip around a little bit before the Winter, if the Winter is to be a +nao. But NAO in November does have a +correlation with the Winter at about 55%. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormchaserchuck1 Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 Warm water is showing up in the western-subsurface, which is catching up to what the CPC has shown for a little while Starting to lower the La Nina chances for next year. The subsurface is also Neutral.. so it will be interesting to see if a La Nina-Pacific pattern happens this Winter. As per the subsurface, it's not as much of a blowout as you would think. Since 1998, the Hadley Cell has been La Nina-like in Neutral times though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormchaserchuck1 Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 You might also want to rename this thread "2024-2025 ENSO Neutral", because we aren't going to get 5 months of ONI -0.5 or less. Nino 3.4 is -0.3 now, and it usually peaks around a month from now. We might not even make it as low as -0.4 on the ONI. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m definitely more bullish on winter than most, but some of the things I’ve seen so far in November have me concerned. That said, I agree it’s a good idea to think outside the box and ask what could go wrong. I have a few things in mind: 1. The currently strongly -PDO continues to weaken and ends up only moderately or even weakly negative for the second half of winter 2. In the second half of this hurricane season, guidance has repeatedly underestimated the strength of developing lows in the gulf. It is possible this continues into the winter, especially if the ocean temps remain elevated (AGW isn’t going anywhere, so this is very likely). During our windows of opportunity, digging shortwaves may be able to tap that gulf moisture leading to bigger storms coming up the coast. This could lead to a snowier than expected outcome even if seasonal guidance has the right idea about the temp profile. 3. The expected +NAO is more south based than seasonal guidance is indicating, leading to a colder outcome for New England. 4. El Niño begins to to rapidly develop in the second half of winter (note: this is not supported by any guidance whatsoever) 5. Something that didn’t cross anyone’s mind pops up and derails the consensus winter forecasts. From most likely to least: 5 > 2 >>> 3 >>> 1 >>>>>>> 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh...I wouldn't say that yet. 2008 is a great ENSO analog and it racked up ONI by hanging out near peak for a relatively long duration, rather than reaching a low weekly. It was -0.1 at this point on the weekly and peaked at 0.8 ONI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If begins climbing rather abruptly.... Yeah, I tested "lead time PDO" vs "time of PDO", and actually found a near 0 advantage on the lead.. The pattern that is in place impacting the PDO actually tested higher historically.. Of course this Winter you can say it will be a -1 to -2 Winter PDO, and that's not lead, it's time of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
