With no rainfall expected today for San Diego, this will be the driest start ever to the July 1st to June 30th California rainfall year and for the October 1st to September 30th water year for San Diego with only 0.14 inch of rainfall from October 1st through today and 0.16 inch for July 1st through today. Rainfall records for San Diego go back to 1850.

It's going to be tough to figure out going forward. The EPO and WPO are going to dive negative in that period however the AO and NAO will be moving towards a positive. Will the snow pack in the middle of the country have an impact? My guess is it will make for some anxious folks on here trying to snag a big fish.

Only in your wildest dreams, Andrew.

I'm sure there is, just as @Tom posted. Ops are all over from a warm soaker on the GFS to that bliz flashed on last night's Euro. Way too far out for now. Hoping more for this clipper to trend better to be honest.

Looks like the main difference is the AI has much less troughing near Alaska. At hour 150.
