Forecasters believe #LaNina conditions will stick around through the end of 2022, but an ENSO-neutral scenario could take over in early 2023. Something other than La Nina usually bodes better for crops in southern South America (esp. Argentina) and the southern U.S. Plains.

An extremely tight temp gradient develops in week 2 between extreme cold to the north and very balmy trying to return deep south.

Because of this, small changes are causing models to  flip flop, sometimes in extreme fashion. The 12z GFS was -4 HDDs bearish vs the 0Z run, which had been +9 HDDs bullish. The European model did the exact opposite. The last 12z run was an incredible +15 HDD's bullish after the previous 0z run was -8 HDDs bearish. 

Individual ensemble solutions have an extremely wide spread.

This is the bullish version of the pattern from the last operational 18z GFS.

We woke up to a surprise 3-4 inches of snow in southwest IN. I was not expecting that much.

I re mortared a ton of bricks on our steps and walkway on Wed/Thu and have them covered with black plastic, mainly to try to trap the ground heat and prevent a deep hard freeze that might cause moisture still in the partially cured  mortar to freeze up, expand and compromise the integrity of the bonding. 

I started sweeping off the snow, worried that it would melt and then refreeze to ice, then decided to leave it on to help insulate more.

Why only reporting on how extreme and bad this is by media?

This is mainly thanks to the global warming pattern/El Nino kicking in again in the Pacific after the pause caused by the La Nina(cold water in the tropical Pacific) which caused the drought....is over!

BTW Jean,

I love that guy that you linked us with because of his enthusiasm and he was alot of wonderful stuff.

But he's a crappy weather forecaster in realms like the one he's using in this video because his objective is to sensationalize everything at the expense of NOT seeing dynamics which undercut that mission.

He insists that it will be dry in May in the places below that will receive alot of rain during just the next 2 weeks(6z GEFS 5-3-23). In fact, just the next week. His forecast for a dry May is already busting right after he released it!

This isn't just a difference in opinion. The model below might be too wet for the pattern but this guy is blowing the pattern recognition aspect of the forecast from being too closed minded with his focus on THE PRESENTATION and missing the forest because he's looking at a few impressive trees that lets him make a misleading video like this.

Put another way, he's using some solid principles about meteorology that apply to Omega Blocks, then embellishes and extrapolates and exaggerates to make an attention grabbing video which contrasts with ALL the model and expert forecasts using pattern recognition of THE BIGGER PICTURE.

Thanks, Jean!

I remember talking with Jim Roemer a few times back in the early/mid 90's when he was part of the Freese-Notis, Trade-Winds commodity weather advising service. Craig Solberg too. I was mega impressed with their knowledge of how the weather impacted ag and energy markets, which was what I was making a killing doing in the 1990's from the get go.

This was before the internet and I had a satellite dish on the roof getting the weather information the same time the NWS did. Big funds used meteorologists that would take some time to update forecasts, then pass it on and I was already in before the market dialed in the updated forecast. 

There were no algorithms jerking the markets around and they reacted much more predictably. 

Today, they have in house models that are sometimes a few minutes faster than anything that I get.

Late in the week, the driest areas were in the ECB, best chance of rain, WCB. 

GEFS with almost 2 inches of rain in most places, European Ensemble around 1 inch.

The last couple of model runs have taken away rains in the WCB. Added some in the SE Cornbelt. 

As long as the EE has such skinny rains, half the average, I continue bullish.

Let's continue this discussion here:

Turning hot at the end of this week. Rains are over in much of the Midwest for, possibly the rest of the month.

We need some rain in most places. Won't help crops but will help lawns/gardens and other natural vegetation and especially the Mississippi River level which is getting too low again, like it did last Fall.

Rains really picking up now in the forecast (especially for the Plains/W.Corn belt)because of a huge pattern change-bearish Winter wheat, good for planting.

+++++++++++++++++++++++

This has been the biggest weather deal the past 2 weeks:

The forecast for the 2nd half of October has no strong anomalies, except warmth in the West.
