Re: August 2021 Forecasts And Discussions
It is weird how these things fade in the medium range only to sort of re appear a couple days out. Does anybody know why this is? I've seen it happen a million times and still fall for it every time. Same thing with snow in the winter.

Re: August 2021 Forecasts And Discussions
Normal model volatility I think. Lots of noise to wade through when you are 5+ days out. The hurricane in the Eastern Pacific is probably not helping matters, but I don't know.

Re: August 2021 Forecasts And Discussions
There is also a pretty dramatic fall in verification scores once you go from 5 to 8 days.

Very muted torching on the GFS. I'm liking this. The GEM is half decent but a little more torchy.

The “where†part is trivially obvious. East of the Rockies. As always.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Yeah, the 00Z Euro was still pretty warm right through to the end, but I hope Summer is done tormenting us.

Re: August 2021 Forecasts And Discussions
My guess is one more heat wave either this month or early in September. That said, I have an incredibly good feeling about winter. I think in late November or sometime in December we will see a solid cold and or snow event.

I remember you asked about gold pan park in the canyon awhile ago. My informants tell me that it was not damaged by the Lytton fire.

Re: August 2021 Forecasts And Discussions
Lack of data over the pacific. We have lots of data input when the pattern is evolving upstream near Japan. Then it moves out over the pacific where we rely on ships and a few buoys. Then 3-4 days out we start getting better data as things approach Alaska or the coast. Just a theory.
