WTF is with this bleeping weather?

[nate]

6th warmest ever in Denver.

 

It was mid 70s today, should be again tomorrow, and possibly snow Wednesday night.

 

Yea after we got flurries last week it was low 70s the last couple days and in the mid 60s the rest of the week with lows in the upper 30s.  Weird weather.

 

In Philadelphia it's in the 70s.

Last night I was out walking and it was about 78 with a light breeze. Gorgeous night. You could really forget where you are if not for the ugly beige duplexes with the flat roofs, the 20 foot fence with the razor wire, and the F-15's flying final approach just east of us.

Watch out for that cyclone heading up from the Arabian Sea. Yemen is about to be even more ****ed than normal.

[Adam]

[arch stanton]

That calls for 18 trips to the emergency room

Except for no baseball.

 

but there's also hockey! that more than makes up for the lack of baseball.

I might have to wear a sweater tomorrow morning

[Homebrewer]

Bold, the station closest to my house...

Lots of frosted ground this morning.

My favorite time of the year, by far.

[Hollyw00d]

Is there a brush fire somewhere in OC right now? I see smoke

[Angel Oracle]

I see it coming from south of Tustin, not sure how far south.

[Sully151]

Someone said it was by the old El Toro base.

[Angel Oracle]

They are long term forecasts.  

But here it is two weeks later, and still projections are for only about an inch of rain from now through December 23, which is TWO inches LESS than normal.

Sounds a lot like the past 4 years.

[Homebrewer]

We are getting it up here. Rained hard all night last night, with another round headed in this evening.

Cold storms though, not really the el Nino kind of tropical (pineapple express) storm.

This next round is supposed to contain some hail and T-storms.

Been good rain though...long and steady...which is what we need up here to refill the groundwater, and keep the burned mountainsides on the sides of the mountains, where they belong.

[Angel Oracle]

Good, at least the areas north of SoCal are getting some much needed rain.

Maybe that is encouraging.

I'm just skeptical though, until the drought ends.

[Amazing Larry]

Weekly Update (November 9, 2015):

Strong El Niño conditions remain in place. The weekly sea surface temperature reading, taken within the Niño 3.4 region near the equator, has risen to 2.8°C above average. This is the highest value observed to date during this event and ties the highest weekly departure of 2.8°C recorded in late November 1997 during the record-setting 1997-98 El Niño. NOAA provides an update on El Niño conditions each Monday.

[Homebrewer]

Careful..

Watch what you ask for..

our bigger concern should be whether or not the Sierra's are getting adequate snowfall.

The passes are all closed...earliest they have shut them in a few years.

Snow down to 5000 feet tonight. Ski areas are getting ready to open.

[Mark68]

Hey, stop sending that shit east. I'm not ready for winter.

 

 

Had an inch of snowfall Thursday morning, and expecting another 1-4" this Wednesday AM (always during morning rush hour).

 

 

Stop it! Just STOP it!!!!!!

[nate]

We are having a really mild November so far after we got a few flurries last weekend.

 

[Angel Oracle]

That is a warm Wisconsin November.

One of the other benefits of El Nino, warmer than normal winter in the Midwest
