Interesting model runs only 9 days away. Jr. your thoughts?

No cold or snow in the near future? Sounds like time to start gardening. Any predictions for the spring/summer?

Farmer'a Almanac is giving Southern BC slightly cool and drier for Feb -April then warmer and wetter for May to July but not sure if I'm buying their forecast this year when they had slightly cooler and normal precip for January

What did I miss??? A whole bunch of posts are gone.

Abby junior has some different opinions then some others that can’t handle that so it was removed by them. Immature imo.

Are you saying I'm immature in your opinion?

Phil has already cancelled next winter.

Safe to say this winter was more El Niño-ish than not, however. Weak Walker Cell/high AAM/WWB train.

As for next winter, I suspect a strong niña under -QBO would probably go the route of 2007/08. Very difficult to amplify the NPAC High with that type of background state.

Maybe that’s the new multiyear background state after all? Just raging +EPO/zonal flow? Opposite of 2013-18 would be strangely fitting. Would be terrible news for Tim, but sucky for lovers of cold, continental air as well.

l read that last night and l l don't Phil should be going out that far that's just insane l think his 21c weather in January got to him. l don't mind El Nito going that far out we love him and we love ripping into him.

Thanks so much. You are an intelligent man as well. I wish we had longer to chat when I picked my station but no problem. You are a hard worker and had to do your job.
