August 2023 Observations and Discussion
Welcome to August, last month of summer. Days are getting noticeably shorter, with each passing week, sun is setting a little earlier in the evening each night, and time to get those last beach days in before Fall arrives next month.

Sunday night was wonderful, had the windows open at my place for the first time in weeks. Got a little warm inside yesterday afternoon so put the AC back on, but was nice to get some fresh air at night.

It was beautiful sleeping weather last night. We don't open windows because of allergies... If flood gates were open we would have taken the boat out to sleep. Husband is fine in the water..billg315 wrote:Sunday night was wonderful, had the windows open at my place for the first time in weeks.

1.68” from that storm, wind gusts to 30 mph+, tons of lightning- should have been severe warned based on rainfall rate imo all in less than 1hr

Re: August 2023 Observations and Discussion
Another winter-related post to keep us cool(er) than we have been so far this month folks, the EURO seasonals came out last night, and for a model that can’t find cold air in its extended range, HOT DIGGITY they are SCRUMPTIOUS!! Lock us in from November through presumably March. I said that I really liked the idea of a fast and strong start in November and December in my earlier post, but I also said that I wasn’t sure about whether or not we could lock in through the rest of the season. I’m still not sure of that, and quite honestly, I am waiting to see how El Niño region 1.2 evolves between now and October before I will likely feel comfortable enough to actually make my stand on a forecast. But, as of now, that is the ONLY piece I am waiting for, because quite honestly, everything else, including modeling (which is worth the least, but still something), is looking pretty darn good. I’m pretty excited, gang, I won’t lie. But again, Niño region 1.2 is the indicator I will be watching very closely.
Carry on

Saw that. Encouraging for sure. The Sub Aleutian Low getting stronger as we head through the three months is what I like most to be honest. Everything else down stream will fall into place if that sets up shop in that location for the season.
Dec-Jan-Feb

Re: August 2023 Observations and Discussion
Little subsurface cool pool at about 150m developing around 160E longitude. See what happens there.
And 1.2 seems to have begun to moderate a bit in August, and the center of the warmest anomalies just starting to "maybe" shift westward. Ray I know that's what you're watching for. FWIW Nino region 1.2 is the most shllow and can fluctuate quite dramatically and quite rapidly so grain of salt with changes for now. Like Ray said must wait until Sept Oct and see where we sit.
Go west young man...Go West. We want you to grow up into Mr. Modoki by late Fall please

Mom I can empathize those days wh3n my oldest went off to Penn State and then Tennessee for his Masters. But they must leave the nest egg and those experiences willnalow them to adult and become ones.
Picked up 1.46" overnight!!
Look at Jan and Feb on seasonal EURO maps...Positive PNA, Negative AO and NAO!!! Please hold and come to fruition!

Re: August 2023 Observations and Discussion
The sefere weather threat today looks intense especially further south from here but don't often see moderate into central/eastern NJ. Looks like tornado threat too. A rare level of High in that area down south is pretty uncommon too.

Re: August 2023 Observations and Discussion
That's insane that 8.5 spot in NYC area is Yonkers plot, I surely hope not would be major I mean major flooding. Anything over 4 in 1 day and it gets concerning. With the severe weather threat I guess depending on how slow moving or training storms are it could happen. Anyone notice the extreme uptick in torrential rains this summer, even when no rain is forecast spotty areas get massive tropical downpours. Global warming? Do not want to debate here but it has to be something. I do not recall this amount of wet in a long time as it has been continuous.

Re: August 2023 Observations and Discussion
Darker here in upper Orange. No wind or rain yet. Woke up to an inch in the gauge at 6:30 am when it was drizzling. I suspect it will get ugly fast BUT the radar is clear except for 35 miles. NW from here
It’s wait and see. 75 now and humid. Wind out of the south at 18 mph but I don’t see that here. Weather app is showing rain, thunderstorms and I don’t see that either. So it is off to the garage to set up a monitoring position and monitor the weather with the help of a few Beck beers.
