Wouldn’t shock me if models took an abrupt turn towards +NPO/cool/wet soon with the -dAAMt stretch coming up. Lots of precedent there. We’ll see.

You know you've just guaranteed a record warm SON, right?

Sept is going to torch the PNW. That seems almost certain at this point. Maybe less so after the 15th-20th but for sure up until then. Currently sitting at the average high in late July as of this very moment, and continuing to warm.

Oct will be around normal and Nov will be chilly, Dec will concur. Just my gut.

Given -ENSO I'll say whet and stormy but it's been a weird one this year so it could go any way.

Man I hope the OFA scores a coup.

I’ve never seen them forecast a -7°F monthly departure here before. Talk about bullish. 😵

OFA looks like something you’d expect in a strong niño. Really betting against ENSO, it seems.

Fittingly, January is the mini spring month again.

You're giving them far too much credit, I don't think they bet against anything. Doubt half their employees even know what the ENSO index is. They have their own ridiculous, archaic methods that fall in the same line as homeopathy or astrology. Nothing remotely related to meteorology.

Farmers Almanac almost always fails. And when they do succeed, it's because of their comically large error margins of 1-2 weeks. No shit you'll see anomalous airmasses at some point during that timespan.

I’ve already been suffering. Weather hasn’t changed here at all, everything still in midsummer form. As green and buggy as ever. Windows are still dripping with condensation every day.

At least the next 5-6 days should be nice. But I doubt it’ll last.

I’m seriously looking at 2010/11. Similarly quiet WPAC typhoon season and rapidly descending +QBO/strong niña.

Tonga is the big wild card. Am increasingly concerned it will throw a giant wrench into things. Stratosphere is not behaving normally at all right now.

Winter never bothers me much.   And we travel.   I mostly get annoyed when the warm season gets messed up.   

Naples FL and Maui will be our extended home away from home this winter.    But we will be home for Christmas this year... unless a ski trip comes up.

As stated before. I don't think Tonga has much to do with anything. If things don't turn out to our liking it will be a convenient excuse.

Looks like the 18Z GFS is going to go crazy with troughing after day 10.    My guess is that it won't look nearly as troughy when that period gets within 7 days.   

Just last Wednesday... the GFS runs showed deep troughing and occasional rain starting today and lasting through this coming weekend.

79 / 47 here today.  Classic September day.

I'm going to be interested to see what kind of mins we can come up with later in the week before the strong offshore flow kicks in.

As I've said....other than the two warm days coming up it looks like nothing to complain about over the next two weeks.  A good mix being shown on the models.

Fire weather watch already up for PDX Friday into Saturday...gonna be a dry east wind...please don't repeat 2020! 

2020 was kind of a perfect storm for major fires.  This time we won't have the ridiculous duration of dry east winds like we had that time and we won't have thousands of people camping on a holiday weekend.

That having been said all it takes is one careless act or even a freak thing like sparks from a car to trigger a disaster.

Pretty spectacular as long as we can avoid smoke.  12Z ECMWF showed 10 straight sunny days ahead.
