SST up to 77F now with feels like air temp in the 80s, warmer than many of your NJ beaches.
When factoring how much sunnier and warmer our winters compared to the REAL Mediterranean, wouldn't you rate our new warm epoch norm better than them?

I can't wait for the cold PDO to shut down your warm epoch. As if the new norm is 77F water.

Nope, if anything we should shift north. I think 5-10 degrees would be perfect.

You don't have a "warm epoch", FFS. A few years of warmer than average water is not an "epoch". What do you contribute to this forum honestly?

He contributes nothing but the same ol garbage about their new "warm epoch". Everyone in the world knows the water in California is very cold given the climate. The water temps are around the same in summer as northern New England, yet look at the winters they have in northern New England and still they manage the same water temps as S. California.


All one has to do is look at the water temps over a long record. There is no way in hell southern CA is going to have 77F water as an avg temp. It is just this stupid stubborn very warm PDO which hasn't quit yet. Once it does, he won't be on here posting about these water temps. Instead, he will keep a very low profile instead of pointing out that his warm epoch water temps crashed back down to earth.

Actually, as alex985 pointed out, ABrandNewWorld is a she, and it's not a climate fail, because it's side effects are low humidity and clear, stable skies. That's a climate win in my opinion

Bump because I recently just got back into this stuff. Does this mean that if the Americas were shifted south by 20, 10, or even 5 degrees, there'd be more than three countries in North America, especially with less of Canada being frozen wasteland?

Are the cold winter's in the US really that much of a problem. Many people love the four distinct seasons

There are few areas of the US that have consistently four distinct seasons due to rapidly warming winter temperatures.

There are VAST areas of Northern US that have four distinct seasons and cold winters. Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Pittsburgh New York, Philadelphia, Washington DC etc just to name a few
