I havent read this entire thread, and this is completely off topic, but I feel likes its safe to say that everything that typically happens weather wise since last October (early winter storm up north) has occurred one month'ish earlier than we are accustomed to. Sever weather was earlier (not as many cold fronts making it far enough south), winter ended very early, and our wet season was early. I've got many examples, but this is the first time as a weather junky I have seen such a regular "early" pattern. Its almost predictable from an almanac perspective. One month is a pretty big difference and I can t help but wonder why. Yall are the only folks that I know that couldve recognized this, or would care about it.
If I can copy/paste this elsewhere to have a discussion, I would completely entertain that.
p.s. Portastorm, congrats on your recent rains. Well, earlier this month, at least. Travis has a long way to go, but there is no way we see a summer like last in our lifetime (knocking on wood).
It's interesting you say that. I was speaking to my father in Missouri yesterday and he said the exact same thing: Throughout the winter until now, the weather pattern has been about one month early.
