Phil Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Seems to me the globe was fairly warm in 2014.Yeah, it kinda was, particularly at the sea surface. Elsewhere, including the lower troposphere and land surface, it was nothing remarkable. Thing is, you should expect a big jump in global temps under the influence of a +ENSO/-QBO/+HC/+PDO/+AAM regime..I'm surprised the warmth wasn't more widespread, actually. Nevertheless, all we care about are trends and standard deviations..which are fairly unremarkable..see the data from NCDC, HADCRUT4, and RSS below: NCDC HADCRUT4 RSS 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...

Front Ranger Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 I can guarantee most of you would be 100% as miserable in the dominant pattern we've experienced this winter if the globe was 1F cooler. It really makes little difference. The mountains would still have little snow, the lowlands would have gotten no more snow, CA would still be in a drought, and the East would still be getting slammed with snow/cold. If the weather this winter has driven you crazy, global warming is just a big, bad scapegoat that has very little to do with it in reality. 2 Quote A forum for the end of the world.

Skagit Weather Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Appears I had a rogue wind gust here around 4am. The 40mph gust ties for the strongest gust I have measured since I began my station in 2008. Also it was the one of only two gusts above 30mph at all since yesterday. It seems that sometimes my strongest gusts are when I am least expecting it. Also been in the rain shadow for the last couple days so have only accumulated about an inch of rain in February so far.

Phil Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Anyone else getting tired of the continuous 1993-94 re-run? The large scale global circulations have been essentially stagnant since the 3rd week of January 2013..over two years now. Only notable changes have occurred in the tropics, in the form of a very low-freq Walker/Hadley progression into something more reminiscent of a +ENSO ratio. If this fails to complete, which is looking more likely, we may end up back in the same pattern next winter, minus the raging +PNA. So..2013-14 repeat?

You've lost it a bit since last fall, probably after a September payoff failed to occur after a steamy summer. Point is, as it has been all along, that our state of affairs with respect to global warming/climate change were the same four years ago when we were basking in nina greatness.

VancouverIslandSouth Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 This is turning out to be a pretty epic snow storm for NW BC. Kitimat is sitting at about 120cm (47 inches) with more on the way, and Terrace is approaching a 24 hour record at 111cm (44 inches) so far.

LolWhat on earth needs to happen to shake up this pattern to get us in a different regime? I am absolutely fed up with this pattern since 2013 due to the terrible drought in CA. 1993-94 was wetter here in Socal than these winters since 2013 have been. At least right now CA is getting some significant rains, which is a very good thing in itself to help replenish the reservoirs, but we need to build up the snowpack as well and that is impossible with sky-high snow levels.

Have you been to Silver Star in Vernon? We were planning to go to Silver Mountain in Idaho but getting nervous about snow conditions and Silver Star looks much better right now.
