Pattern Shift?

Wow that is balmy SST's but it's early. Maybe this year we will have less windy conditions and more of a "dog days of summer" like pattern. Certainly seems like there has been more wind since 2005 down here. The wind doesn't even help much with a 75F dewpoint and 90F temps, it's still appreciated though. I really don't see any pattern shift of yet though..same ole boring nice weather this winter.

If we have high SST's we could have more fuel for a June system. Interesting to see if it pans out. You can be sure I'll claim credit if it happens.

so "there won't be much push" is incorrect.

I'm not sure the northern Jet means a more western Bermuda High. What if the High sets up further east?

But my main point in the thread was that December 2007 was diametrically opposed to December 2006 in the Northeast. 2006 was unseasonably warm with no snow and 2007 was cold with above average snow. My theory will prove correct if deep, well-developed storms happen north of the islands where they've gotten blown down by upper winds in the last few years.
