Yes, the physical evidence is that the 2nd half of December has been warming at a faster rate than the 1st half of December since 1981. So as a function of this warming NYC and other locations have made it to 55° or warmer every year between the 17th and 25th since 2011. This late month warm up has been very reliable even in years like 2017 that dropped into the single digits right after Christmas. It was also a feature in 2020 following the record 40”+ snowstorm in BGM mid-December before the record flood cutter and widespread 50s and 60s on Christmas.

Many times the models haven’t forecast this warm up during the first week of December but have shifted warmer in later runs as we approached the 15th. So when models are showing a relaxation of the colder pattern during the 2nd week of December, chances are the following period up to the holidays will see at least 1 day reaching 55° or warmer at spots like NYC and EWR.


NYC maximum temperature December 17th to 25th since 2011

High so far of 58° in NYC. So a record breaking 14 consecutive years reaching 55° or warmer between 12-17 and 12-25. A remarkably consistent pattern for this time of year.

Even in this era of warm extremes the last week of December really stands out for the North American continent.

Today's CPC 8-14 Day Outlook is the most above normal (reddest) one they have issued (2008-present) for the Lower 48. The average location in the Lower 48 has a 75.9% chance of being above normal, a 19.9% chance of being near normal, and a 4.2% chance of being below normal for the Dec 24-30 period.

oh now we're actually f*cked. when jb starts tweeting i might as well get my swim trunks out

With the meteorological world steeped in frustration a nation turns its lonely eyes to the highly esteemed Joseph Bastardi. For years Mr. Bastardi has graced us with his immeasurable wisdom and provided guidance and soul searching for budding practitioners of the barometric arts. As the long doldrums of a barren winter eviscerate our hopes and emasculate our most fervent snow packed dreams, we pray for Mr. Bastardi to extend us the blessings of his everlasting graciousness and meterological fiber, and to comfort us in our time of need.

Man, you guys are really miserable. You’re really pushing that last week of December for some torch. It’s gonna be in the freaking 40s.

 

Listening to some of you, one would think we’d be going for a record-breaking heat.

Some of you must be real fun at the barbecue or a Christmas party

 

i’m rooting for that Sunday snowstorm just to piss some of you off

Icon is an outlier.  Go with a blend of the other models knowing that this is an IVT and will probably leave a lot of people disappointed.

That's why we track . Euro is quite similiar also . The storm isn't that far away from the coast.

If people discussing the actual weather patterns make you that angry maybe you need some time off from this place.

This is what I mean. Have you been watching the models? 

That's why we track.  Weird how no one on this subforum is tracking this while the other subforums are tracking it.  

Snow is snow

Now back to SNE subforum where the discussion is actually worthy.

No point posting in this subforum .
