Hey someone else in the NWS haha I got a couple I know elsewhere nowhere near that interesting for winter though...
That area is definitely interesting from what I've seen
I guess we had someone here just get hired at NWS Flagstaff but yeah

Not sure if this will be strongest Nino ever, but pretty sure it’s the most HYPED so far.
Still biting, no ice on the ponds yet! 
Goodbye, old friend. I've enjoyed fantasizing with your digital snows over the years. RIP. 9 PM will never be the same.

Yeah some of my met friends out here are not excited about the NAM going away. It was really good with the shallow arctic air in the winter down in Texas
Time will tell I guess
Same here in the CAD region. I always looked to the NAM for temps within the wedge and for signs of impending warm-nose doom.

I feel even older now that the NAM is retired lol
Its definitely going to be a slow start to the ski season on the east coast. Waterbury, VT is forecast to be 75 tomorrow, blowing the doors off their record.
same as it ever was -----

Everything is just fine. Were actually cooler than them since we had storms and fropa overnight 
The NCSU meteorology club had a NAM going away party last night

I hate it. The nam, especially the 3km always sniffed out elevated warm layers the best and now we have lost that. Not happy about it
As long as we aren’t phasing out the Bounceycorn 3000 model, all is good!
This is boring.

I love Pyre Weather so much. At some point, I should try to tackle making the Miller A vs Miller B composites I threw together in NCEP-R1 and have things animate through.
Anything forming in the Gulf of America or Lake America?

It's too bad the hurricane season is probably over at this point
When the power bill is 100 instead of 300
This is one juiced up super duper MAJOR El Nino. 
I think the only appropriate reaction to this is: Woof!
As many of us crawl out summer hibernation to join the winter conversations, can there be a quick recap of the No-Nam plan? What do the new models give us and/or any relevant info?

I know it definitely feels like a real pattern change
Even tomorrow there's a widespread rain event all the sudden. Two days ago there was no rain for weeks
If we can just do that when it's colder.....
That is one advantage to El nino. I don't think there will be a shortage of storms
I was just saying that in the 5 winters I've been here I haven't seen a really dynamic storm yet where we go from like thunderstorms to heavy snow in a few hours like we have before. The overwhelming arctic air snow is always kind of underperforming as I've mentioned before
Storms should be juiced this winter, for sure! We just gotta time it with a good cold shot

Interesting that Buffalo and Rochester both broke record highs yesterday - which is nearly 30° above average (This is Nov. - right?)

Hey guys I’m new to this forum and just joined hope I get a chance to learn from you guys. I’m from Montana and recently moved to Alabama north of Huntsville near the Alabama Tennessee state line. So I know now that being in the south is going to be a different experience for me especially during the winter. But on that note I’m a die hard snow fan and can’t wait to see what mother nature brings this coming winter season

Welcome, I'm right down the road from you in Madison. It does snow here! Not Montana levels, but it's a treat to look forward to and chase.
I would recommend staying home when it does snow/ice here. The roads are absolutely terrible especially all the hilly/mountain areas and you'll slide all over the place. They don't have the infrastructure to treat and plow, so enjoy the mini snowcations when they happen.

Thanks for letting me know that I’m definitely going to be aware and use my snow chains to put around the tires when it do snow.
