The curtain is closing early this year.

That stretch of generally warm winters out here 2016-24 was associated with low frequency variability in the IPWP structure & associated axisymmetric displacement of deep convection producing seasonally state-dependent pattern responses across the middle-latitudes. Tl;dr: warm anomalies were maximized during the summer in the West and during the winter in the East. I believe that has inverted (and probably will remain as such until ~ the early 2030s) as the imbedded axisymmetric forcing elements have nearly reversed phase now (these modes of variability are on a lower frequency than ENSO & QBO/SAO). Probably time for me to move to a cooler climate as I could barely handle the summers here before, and now we’re seeing 95-100+ weather in super niño onset summers like it’s nothing. Dreading 2027.

Keeps going.

My OCD would require me to even out those pallet stacks.

CLASSIC fall reacharound goodies for the mountains/east side on the Euro again
