Maybe I’m weird but I’ve always liked the early sunsets. The long evenings can be cozy. On the flip side I’ve always enjoyed the super late sunsets on the opposite side of the year too. I enjoy dynamism when it comes to daylight length throughout the year. To me it would be strange living at a lower latitude where daylight length and sun angle are more uniform year round. I realize this is just personal preference though.
As we quickly approach the last month of Met Spring, what will Mother Nature bring? Hopefully not any May SNOW showers! During one of the signature periods of the LRC, we saw that West-Based Greenland Block and it is starting to show up Big time in the modeling. Could this be a theme for May and into the summer months ahead? I'm pretty confident that it will be and the pattern up in Canada suggests that wild fires will start early and often. Unfortunately, they have been plagued with fires especially up across the Southern and Eastern parts of the country last year, iirc. My gut says the same areas in parts of Eastern and Southern Canada are going to get the worst of it. Bullseye near Ontario??? Man, I sure hope not. "Hazy Summer Skies"...will be something to keep an eye on this summer season.
South of the border, what does May look like? The CFSv2 has been gun-ho on a remarkably active pattern across the heartland and dry across the GL's. Due to the blocking pattern across the N & E parts of North America, I think its right. There will be some happy folks on here and nasso happy peeps near the Lakes/OHV.
Nearly every LR model is showing a cool to COLD open to the month of May....May snow? Well, the GFS says it will Snow...heck no! Let's discuss as I believe this will be quite and active and fairly interesting month ahead.
