Well, June was the warmest on record nationally. The July data isn't out yet, but I think it was pretty warm as well.

June was the warmest on record for CONUS

July data coming in but NCEP saying really warm too. Probably top 10 for US

Models are also now converging on warm August.

Well it doesn't seem to be a Nina pattern with all the rain we have been getting.

Like for example with very warm Gulf Temps, into the low 90s in many places it would be hard to see Florida quickly cooling down into the winter.

That's becausewe haven't had a La Nina. ENSO has been neutral up until last couple of weeks. We've had near record rainfall. One southwest suburb had over 16" of rain this July

La Nina pattern might kick im mid-late August or maybe in September and dryout for the fall

JAMSTEC model updates once a month usually by the 19th.


Junes update showed warm for all of U.S (left)
Julys update showed cold for Eastern U.S(right)


Notice the Alaska differences. I like that Western Ridge and a little Greenland warm blocking too.


I believe this is because models caught on to the fact that La Nina might end up being weak or Neutral for winter..of course other factors as well.


Should be fun to see this months update for winter.

That's because the analogs don't match that scenario. Not that it couldn't happen, but we aren't dealing with an el nino winter now
