Rainfall patterns this April mimic April of 2007 (which is another transition to La Nina year)

Hey look, it's climate change in Houston but not in Dallas. lol







All joking aside, some serious flooding happening in Houston..


Here's a video of Sam Champion of The Weather Channel helping someone.

Seems like the Midwest will see longer durations of warmth than the Northeast for the rest of April

All I'm hoping for is the above normal streak to be broken! 12 months in a row in Philly. They are currently sitting -1.4 below normal this month.


10 in a row for Bridgeport. Only because June 2015 ended up -0.3. So really it's been 12 months in a row as well! Since friggin April 2015. Enough already! Stupid Warm blob...oh wait...that has opposite effect. lol

Looks like right on average for us in late April. Perfect. Our strawberry crop will last long time.

We still went down to 8F due to that warm blob. And the warm blob was overwhelmed by El Nino. You guys keep ignoring the PNW. Why on earth would Seattle have far more and higher sustained warmth than the East Coast? Because of that stupid warm water off their coast. The blob has moved ashore and staying there. I want cold water all along the PNW coast next winter. Then you will see Seattle not have stupidly above avg temps for months on end.

Temperature has rise 15F in just the last 2 hours. This afternoon will be truly summer-like.

We will still probably end up below average for the month. First 10 day cold spell won't be negated by temperature anomalies for the rest of the month.

June like out there except the fact that its still bone dry.

Another sunny day with blue color above. Amazing pattern but days like this (above 70F) is when I wish there were more clouds around.

Fire potential.

938 AM EDT MON APR 18 2016

...VERY DRY CONDITIONS ACROSS THE REGION TODAY...

FIRE WEATHER OFFICIALS ARE ADVISING THOSE LIVING IN CONNECTICUT
OF AN ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER POTENTIAL TODAY. WHILE WINDS WILL BE
RELATIVELY LIGHT...AN EXTREMELY DRY AIRMASS WITH MINIMUM RELATIVE
HUMIDITY VALUES OF 15 TO 25 PERCENT...DRY FINE FUELS...AND WELL
ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES WILL LEAD TO THIS ELEVATED STATE

I bet some fisherman in the Atlantic are wondering why seas have been rough.
I bet some farmers in the central plains have wondered why it's been cloudy for a week.
I bet some folks in Eastern U.S have wondered why it's been sunny for a week.
I bet some Canadians are wondering why there is a cloud wall at the border.


That sums up this Satellite Photo this morning and for past 5 days. OMEGA BLOCK


Poor Oklahoma, Kansas, and Colorado its cloudy day after cloudy day. Upper Low is STILL over there!
