Forget El Niño, StormFest Is about To Hit The West Coast

[longknife]

This article has all sorts of graphics about the storms coming. Impressive and not giving good news for some areas. Lots of snow in higher elevations and most will continue across North America, causing major weather events for some time.

Wind? You bet. Each of these storms will bring strong, damaging winds to a favored area of the coastal zone and mountain peaks.

There is a silver lining of all this action of course: it will provide an immense amount of water to fill our reservoirs and enhance our snowpack, a snowpack that is now in pretty decent shape (see latest summary below). Water resources should be fine next summer.

Also one heck of a lot of flooding and mudslides where large wildfires just happened.


And one Seattle weirdo news source claims the area will face a severe drought in 2019.

The graphic in Post #1 looks like it's going to hit the west coast of Canada, not California.

Good grief you’re ignorant.

He sure is, here in the map showing that ALL ALONG the West coast down into central California are getting the rain, snow and wind:

1 1/2" of rain predicted for Klamath California by tomorrow night.

They are moving SSE, which means almost all of the West Coast and then east across the country.

Forget El Nino, StormFest is about to Hit the West Coast
Things often calm down after January 1 during El Nino years….but not this year…with the U.S. West Coast from central California to Washington State about to be pummeled by a series of storms. Rain, snow, wind? Plenty for everyone.

Guess that is sort of like a chart...and we all know that the skidmark couldn't read a graph to save his life....Canada...what a laugh....

ENSO temps are falling like a rock... The shift in weather pattern has already happened..

Summary * Note: These statements are updated once a month (2nd Thursday of each month) in association with the ENSO Diagnostics Discussion, which can be found by clicking here. ENSO Alert System Status: El Niño Watch ENSO-neutral conditions are present.* Equatorial sea surface temperatures (SSTs) are above average across most of the Pacific Ocean. The patterns of convection and winds are mostly near average over the tropical Pacific. El Niño is expected to form and continue through the Northern Hemisphere winter 2018-19 (~90% chance) and through spring (~60% chance).*

I do not see where the real experts believe ENSO temperatures are "falling like a rock".
