Looks like the weak SSW is benefiting the east coast with those loves coming down. Welp, maybe the next one I guess

Yeah that summer solstice snow you had was really interesting. There have been some late and early extreme snow periods in the Rockies in the last 5 years. I had a house surrounded by azaleas when I was a kid, they were so pretty in the Spring

Johnson Creek which flows into the Willamette through East PDX Metro is forecasted to get to flood level out here on Tuesday and Wednesday. It’s a small creek but it gets big in an hurry whenever we get heavy rain events.

Based off what? One -PDO phase that was just colder all around, in a colder climate? Look up summer 1983. Or 1993. Or 1969. The recent summer warming has obviously been completely different than anything before, but there was never a strong tie to ENSO/PDO.

I miss the azaleas, magnolias, etc. Here we have piles of snow on the ground until late May lol.
