Jesse 9251 Posted Wednesday at 07:10 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 07:10 PM 8 minutes ago, snow_wizard said: The ECMWF has definitely trended toward a slower warmup. Surface gradients are more northerly as opposed to offshore, at least in the Sunday night Monday time frame. 850s stay low for a longer time than earlier runs as well. I noticed the same thing. Unfortunately it hasn't backed down on the warmth at all after that. Do you not find it strange that we may end up with a warmer than average April in a Nina year? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We are dealing with a robust and progressive MJO wave. The forcing from that will be transient. It’s all relative I suppose. And it’s not just the MJO wave but also the fact its seasonal teleconnective relationship to middle latitude wave pool is changing rapidly as evolves and propagates. The general warm-west pattern will be locked in for a little while. It isn’t until May 10-15 that forcing/climatology begins to favor deep troughing again.

What about average, color-free EPS maps? Does it have to be warmer than average for you to enjoy the outdoors?

That's debatable if not downright wrong. A mild first half of the winter fits well with Nina climo. Mid-spring on the other hand is usually a La Nina's wheelhouse when it comes to cool anomalies.

Does it have to be warmer than average for you to enjoy the outdoors? This is an interesting topic that has never been discussed here! I enjoy many days that are cooler than average. Do you know how many of my 'nice day' posts just in the last couple months have occurred on days that are statistically colder than normal? Most of them. Color-free EPS maps are sort of boring... it usually means a wide spread and no conclusive direction.
