Last Stretch of Summer....

Well it's been awhile for me on here, I have been getting ready for college and preparing with jobs. It has been a nice summer, pretty extreme with the 100's at times. We are now falling over to fall here soon. I don't think we'll have an extended summer, the patterns are almost ready to change over to fall soon, looking at the extended models and patterns from the Jet Stream. This winter will be one for the books. It looks interesting but yet there are some points to where im puzzled, especially at the SST's. I don't belive the SST's will determine our winter this year. Two major extremes I expect this winter are 1. Windstorm. We are overdue for one, like I have been saying for the past year and a half after looking at data. Mark Nelsen agree's to this as well as George Taylor. So thats the number one event I expect to see this winter. 2. Arctic Cold Snap. Looking at the patterns, and noting that we had Arctic air in February and and extremely cold start to March with that snow, I'd expect to see a nice cold outbreak for the NW. I am not going to comment on snow, that will just have to depend if there is any moisture when or if we see that Arctic Air. Im still looking over data, so things may change before I release my predictions in September. For the Blog, i'll be posting every other day with more news and tidbits. If you have any questions, feel free to comment on the Blog and i'll reply to those questions on the next post. Take care.
