Plenty of extra Atlantic warmth and moisture to fuel more heavy rains.

 

 

Good data.  Definitely not surprised to see we're in the wetter area.  Really ever since June it's felt like we've been in an excessively grey and wet period.  Almost never had to add water to the pool, and look how many weekends we lost in the Fall.

Meanwhile, an hour south from most of you guys, June - October was very dry. Lots of wildfires in the Pines.

Yeah, the extended Euro continues with the wet pattern until further notice.

45 here in NYC
75 in Pittsburgh
70s near the lakes

LOL

that's why there's no cold pattern coming there is zero cold or snowcover ANYWHERE.   We're just unlucky to have a storm over us otherwise we'd be pushing 70

It's weird that people still think it's actually going to get cold for more than a couple of days...this is like the 4th or 5th time around on this

The MJO is going to win, again. Hit the repeat button. It’s like the movie Groundhog Day. This has been happening with the long range models since November, phantom blocking mirages over and over again. “Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me”

Now of course it will be right

Extremely unlikely that it is. Like winning the lottery odds of it being correct. It’s a game of how many times are people going to fall for it now.
 

Even if it was right, it’s late March at that point…..too little, too late

Today was your March snowstorm. 10 degrees too warm for it. 

 

Today would’ve been rain any time of the year. This is a hugger that would’ve driven warm air in for the coast. Well inland might’ve stayed snow.

it would’ve been a snow rain event with a good dump upfront.

 

Long story short it’s just too warm to snow around here now and it’s been like that all winter. There’s no March snowstorm coming to save the day.

You need absolutely perfect conditions at this point to get snow around here and that really only happens in the heart of winter

No more snow, but of course the misery's nowhere near done.

The temperature again soared to daily record highs in parts of Ontario, Quebec, and western New York State. However, a storm brought periods of rain and cooler onshore breezes to the northern Mid-Atlantic region today.

Rain will end overnight, but the respite will be short. Another storm will drench the region with a general 1"-2" of rain later tomorrow into Thursday. Locally higher amounts are possible. Yet another storm could bring rain to the region during the weekend.

An extended period of warmer than normal weather continues. March will likely see generally unseasonable warmth through the first 7-10 days of the month. The first week of March could see the temperature average near 10° above normal in New York City.

The generally mild conditions could persist through mid-month. Afterward, there is emerging consensus on the guidance that a deep trough could develop. However, as has generally been the case this winter, no Arctic air masses are likely. As a result, any cold will likely not be severe for the season and the potential exists for it to be fairly short-lived, much as occurred in February.

No significant snowfall appears likely in the northern Middle Atlantic region through at least March 10th. The probability of an unprecedented second consecutive winter with less than 10" seasonal snowfall in New York City's Central Park has increased. Records go back to 1869.

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +0.9°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +1.3°C for the week centered around February 28. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +0.93°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +1.58°C. A basinwide El Niño event is ongoing. The ongoing El Niño event will continue to fade during March. Neutral conditions could develop during the spring.

The SOI was -2.87 today.

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was -0.507 today.
