one missed point? the azores high has been missing or very weak, allowing sst's to warm. recently, the azores high has grown and its just as possible the warm sst's will reverse as the cool sst's also reverse. just a thought[/quote]
You sure are a wishful thinker but I doubt there will be any cooling worth noting as we approach the summer months.The SST's are normally heading up this time of year regardless.

Looks like this may be a draft that wasn't really supposed to leak yet.

Hurricanes typically don't form off NJ though.

Actually, the last warm period lasted from 1926-1969. That's 43 years. The warm periods seem to last a bit longer than the cool periods (which average 25 years).

Do you have data to back this up, or is it just a guess?
any metro will back me up. the azores high has been much weaker than normal for months. thus the trade blowing over the tropical atlantic have been weak. no upwelling=warmer water. the same thing off the se coast. there has been persistent off-shore flow causing major upwelling and much cooler sst's. its reversed now. high pressure is established in the atlantic. stronger trades, more upwelling, cooler sst's. the high will cause onshore flow off the se coast pushing warm water back.
simple logic, the same thing that will cause the water to warm off the se, will cause the water to cool in the MDR

Whoa wait not all were fish in 1995.Luis and Marylin made landfall in the islands.

I understand the logic, what I was asking is do you have any data to show that the average winds and/or the vertical mixing have really been lower than average over the recent months? I haven't seen that data, and thought you might be able to direct me to it since you declared this so confidently.
