The signal is getting harder to ignore.

A strong to very strong El NiΓ±o could be in the works by the end of the summer.

Also, I worried a bit writing this definitely about no rain in CA for the first half of March. But trustworthy guidance backs it up.

Sure, it's ridiculously hot in the southwest right now. But apparently, relief is coming next week.

The rain has finally arrived. Showers through about midnight. Totals will be pretty light.

And then, who knows when it rains again?πŸ™„

Wow. Some initial numbers coming in. Clearly this will be a tale of two storms. Case in point:

Boston: 14".
Warwick, RI: 36"+

60 miles between those two spots. The gradient between Boston and the South Shore is steep.

We have reached bombogenesis with this nor'easter. The central pressure for this nor'easter sits at 972 millibars, dropping 26 millibars within 12 hours, and 37 millibars in about 20 hours.

You can see the resemblance of an eye!

Northeast blizzard down to 974 mb per the 12z SPC analysis. Down over 25 mb since early yesterday afternoon. Bombs away.

Historical storms on one coast have a way of spawning historical storms on the other coast if things line up correctly. That's what we've got here.

California's historic (and deadly) storm is about to become a historic east coast blizzard.
