I read this wrong the first time. RIP Dolly.

Yeah, truly a miracle to see PDX overachieve relative to other places.

@snow_wizard Would have been very proud of this image.

Yep, I'm taking the overall warm season into account since it pretty much all blends together now anyways. I think 2022 will be a bit worse when all is said and done because of the aggressively gross back end, but up through this point I'd definitely say I preferred it because that May/June was simply miles ahead of this year. Having some of the shoulder months show at least a little contrast to the neverending warm+dry goes a long ways in my mind.

Having such a strong Nino and such a -PDO is probably a ~6 standard deviation happening.
