A bit of a personal post on my end. This was a few years in the making but had to postponed several times due to the passing of my mom during Covid and obviously the continuation of Covid until we are safe to travel. And also why I made this trip back to the home country for the first time in 20 years.
This was taken at Central Highlands of Vietnam in Da Lat early morning. The fog and mists was just like home.
Not to put you on the spot, but from what I can remember, this was actually one of the most prototypical Niños in modern history. @Phil could probably back the strength of the regime up with a whole basket of numbers and acronyms. With the exception of mid January's SSW induced blip and a few expected, but brief, episodes of transient NW flow, our local weather pattern was locked in a +PNA death grip from late November's strong anticyclone and inversion, all the way until January's end-of-month atmospheric river bonanza-torch withered into the opening days of February.
A slight +PNA lean still persisted through the end of February before March two thousand and twenty two entered the ring and immediately introduced the first natural system-state troughing regime (no SSW takesies-backsies) in over three months. Even then, the Ides gifted a stout ridge and a fancy pair of record highs, including what still remains to be the warmest weather of the year so far at KSEA...
