This is a good site for forecasting and explaining the vortex action. Seems like a great climate scientist running things. (not crack pinged yet though)

my partner was very distressed about the frogs being out so unseasonably early this year (among other signs of the utter breakdown of natural cycles). long story short, we ended up on the usgs’ website looking at national soil data, trying to figure out the best places to move for when we need to dig our own graves

El Nino is just an aggregated pool of warm water that normally hangs out in the far west pacific, sliding east and warming the East Pacific.

There was a time in USA climatology where El Nino and CA rainfall seemed joined together, for sure. But it looks like those times are gone. The ocean is warming and other teleconnections seem to be gaining power.

It seems pretty clear to me that El Nino juices USA rainfall still, but where that rain goes is no longer tethered in the same way. The 97 El Nino was the most classic possible presentation: flat jet right into California, south displaced.

Funny enough, plenty of areas got shitloads of rain (for example where I moved, Seattle area) but lower elevation CA in particular was pretty left out... so far.

It's probably worth forgetting what El Nino used to do, and to view it more as a juice to the inbound jet rather than some kind of particular southerly-pegged jet split/extension like a textbook would indicate.

Warmin' world baby. After this winter's performance I'm calling a systemic change to how El Nino operates. It still may hammer CA in the future but there are going to be a lot of factors contributing to that overall atmospheric configuration instead of JUST a strong El Nino battering the configuration into submission

e: on top of all that, the last strong El Nino was in loving 2015; we don't get new data on this poo poo very often :shrug:

Wanna see a cool chart?



This is rainfall rankings for the entire USA, out of 132 total years that we've had records. So, if a region says "51" that means that area has had 50 wetter winters and the rest were more dry (this chart basically goes from July 2023 to now, covering the whole season and more).

As you can see plenty of fuckin' people got rain, in fact coastal northern CA has done pretty drat well for itself, but the bay has done poorly. The jet has been strong, it's just angling more towards the PNW and less towards CA.

The current config is looking pretty classic El Nino though so I'm hoping CA gets some more rain for a minute.
