Phil Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Rapid ENSO SSTA cooling since April 4th.

The mega strong Ninas through the years have had some good blocking events for us. 1988-89, 1973-74, 1955-56, 1892-93, and 1889-90.

But strong Nino to strong Nina transition in a low solar period at the very end of a solar cycle. Not many analogs matching those basic criteria even. And of course the results. The most spectacular spring, summer, and fall in 1889. It started in early April and went into October. Portland had 6 temps in the 80s in the last half of September of 1889 alone. January of 1890 was cold and very snowy... 35.3 inches of snow at Portland spread out over numerous events. And ironically... the spring of 1890 was also incredibly nice during a strong Nina. Summer and fall of 1890 was warm and dry. Portland had almost no rain in September of 1890 with almost every day in the 70s to low 80s. Just an incredible 2-year stretch taking us through a strong Nino to strong Nina transition. Maybe very low solar was a factor.

Phil Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 The importance of the ongoing cooling throughout the EPAC cannot be overstated, in my opinion. If this continues and solidifies, we can narrow our summer analog pool substantially, as low frequency forcing will solidify in the IO/MT domain without a warm EPAC. This will assist in strengthening the La Niña faster, affect the boreal summer circulations/summer pattern, tank the PDO, and increase the prospects for an active Atlantic hurricane season. Feedbacks are a beautiful thing. 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Is this faster drop increasing our chances of an average to coolish summer?Definitely. I'm kinda worried that my summer forecast is too warm, actually. I still anticipate more periods of warmth/ridging during the A/M/J trimonthly and I wouldn't be surprised if there's a warm period or two during the early stages of the J/A/S trimonthly, though that period should finish below average overall. Plus, I think a cooler than average autumn is a near-lock for you guys. The reason some Niño-to-Niña summers break the rules and run warm/dry is (usually) because the ENSO transitions are unstable, and antecedent warm waters and/or low frequency forcing can remain in the EPAC or WPAC for awhile. You want the forcing in the IO/MT for a cooler than average summer, which is looking more likely to occur with every passing week. That said, the latest developments are coming at my expense, as this would basically ensure a prolific blowtorch here starting in July, probably lasting through the autumn. So, remember that when considering any potential biases I might have here. 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike 1998/1983, this one should start out east-based with rapid cooling in Niño1.2/Niño3 during June/July, then quickly become center-based through the remainder of the summer. It probably won't be west-based like 2010-11 et al. Though, the warmer the Indian Ocean/Maritime SSTAs get relative to the Pacific, the stronger the Niña will be, and the faster the NPAC/PDO flip will be.

What was 2007-08 and 1988-89?La Niñas often start out central-based, actually. This is particularly true following stronger El Niños, due to the slope of the thermocline during the passage of the initial upwelling oceanic KWs. The 2007-08 La Niña was west-based at its peak around New Years, while the 1988-89 La Niña was east-based at its peak during October/November (which was relatively early, which isn't surprising given the early-demise of the preceding Niño). Analog-wise, the basis of an ENSO event actually isn't that important unless it's extremely notable/dominating in the global anomaly fields. Factors like the IO/MT-PAC longitudinal thermal gradient, QBO/solar, and BDC/poleward O^3 transport hold much more in the way of physical and statistical significance.

Phil Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 Looks like 2007-08 was west-based. Same with 1988-89: Actually, 1988-89 was east-based at maturity. Basically all La Niñas go west-based upon degradation, as the WPAC waters are warmer (in absolute terms) and will better reflect the eastward propagation of the cooler SSTs from the east, while downwelling KWs (warming) will reflect the strongest in the EPAC for similar reasons upon the degradation of an event. http://www.ospo.noaa.gov/data/sst/mean_anom/September.88.anomaly.gif http://www.ospo.noaa.gov/data/sst/mean_anom/October.88.anomaly.gif http://www.ospo.noaa.gov/data/sst/mean_anom/November.88.anomaly.gif 1 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
