Phil Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 Sounds great. I will believe it when I see it of course. This sounds like great material for someone to gloat quote with a smug smiley face a couple weeks from now Still early, but the signs of that long awaited “cold phase” Pacific/multiyear niña might be showing up. The IPWP structure and PMM are starkly different this year than any of the last seven years. Much more E-IO/Indonesia centered OHC maxima. 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 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 OT, but it’s freakin snowing here. Second time this month, after going Feb/Mar without a single flake.

Phil Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 I am pretty sure a period of zonal flow and more frequent rain is coming... it almost has to come at this point.This post is legit/not trolling. Maybe zonal initially? Seems like a regime that would eventually evolve into a ULL pattern then eventually an Aleutian Ridge/-PNA with cool/dry advection into the PNW region. I’m less sold on the idea of prolonged zonal flow at any point this warm season. Overall the system state looks increasingly crappy for moisture advection into the West as time passes, but I’m getting increasingly confident that the ridge stays offshore this summer and results in more cool/dry NW flow in WA/OR/ID/MT/etc as EHEM forcing has continued to build a low frequency presence and the IPWP has consolidated within the Maritime Continent/E-IO region as an upwelling OKW readies to surface in the central tropical Pacific.

Phil Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 Earlier in the year I was less confident the ridge would establish offshore and thought there was a good chance it would be over the west coast, but the E-IO/Indo-Pacific OHC spike in conjunction with the upwelling wave and invigorated NPAC E-bndry current/lowered PMM has me thinking otherwise now. Sucks for CA drought and rain in general but nice way to avoid blowtorches. More like the “cold phase” type drought patterns that wrecked the SW US in 2011 and 2012 with the weak jet/large 4CH that roasted the inland West but spared the immediate coast.

Rarely happens with higher than average heights between now and sometime in late September. So I will take my chances with a troughy pattern. The moisture advection you are thinking of probably has more to do with the SW monsoon, which tends to be more robust during less troughy summers in the west.

Look at my 12" rainfall deficit over here. Big month.Yeah, definitely discouraging to see the rain for early next week keep getting put off. But my gut feeling is that some sort of pattern change is coming. Models are typically too quick with those and that’s why we are seeing the delays right now. At least the weekend is now looking cooler and cloudier than it did a couple days ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
