Bastardi Says Snowiest in Over 5 Years NYC to D.C.
Acuweather ^

Posted on 07/20/2009 12:44:53 PM PDT by Lorianne

Could the "Year Without True Summer" Mean the Coldest and Snowiest Winter in Over Five Years from New York City to Washington, D.C.?

According to AccuWeather.com's Chief Meteorologist and Expert Long Range Forecaster Joe Bastardi, cooler-than-normal weather this summer in the Northeast could point to a cold, snowy winter for the Northeast and mid-Atlantic states. He says the heart of winter will be centered over the area from Boston to Washington, D.C.

For people across the Great Lakes and Northeast, this has been the coolest summer in more than a decade. After a period of more classic summer heat in the coming weeks, cooler weather is expected to continue the trend of the "Year Without True Summer." For Southeast residents, the hot topic for the end of summer will be the tropics heating up after August 15th.

Snowiest winter in 5 years? I guess you have a 20% chance of getting that one right even if you know nothing about weather.

On another note, I do read Joe Bastardi's blog on Accuweather and he's been one of the very few pros out there brave enough to take on this "global warming" nonsense. Global warming is nothing but a con job perpetrated by those who want to further loot our treasuries and our liberties.

From your lips to God's ears Joe!

This has been the best summer I've ever experienced. Today is really the first day I've complained about the heat, and I'm like an eskimo.

Its been in the 60s all day today in central Virginia. That’s about 20 degrees below normal. Its great for the electric bill, but the kids are freezing during swim practice.

A week ago today here in central NY, Mon and Tues were 47; Wed was 46. This morning it was 52. My cukes have been up for 6 weeks and they are no more than 6 inches high. I know now why gore’s eyes are brown. sd

Need to get wood cut, stacked and drying for the winter. We burned every last stick last winter. We usually don’t worry about the sood until September, and now we have to start thinking about it in July. :(

Adding that I am writing from Wisconsin. And I see corn fields all around me that are no more than 1 foot high. The County Fair is next week. I wonder what people will be showing, besides animals?

My Orioles in last place is a sign that nothing has really changed since 1997.

I downsized to a really well built small natural gas heated house.
I won’t miss the big propane bills from my large old drafty one.

Weather is a complex system that weather scientists haven't even scratched the surface of. They don't understand all of the energy inputs in the system, the way different atmospheric physics and chemistry work together and interact. They don't really have a way of measuring the aggregate energy radiated from the planet which is subtracted from the system.

And until solar astronomy is able to predict the sun's activity, long term weather forecasting is going to be impossible because the primary energy input into our weather system is our sun and its output varies unpredictably.

I’m thinking those of us in the southern states will continue to bake while the northern states glaze over.

Hottest July ever brewing in central Texas.

Up here in my little corner of NH I go by snow in my yard, 2008, 7 feet, 2009. 6 feet. The last snow melted in my yard in 2008 on May 2nd, in 2009 on April 28th. It must be getting warmer./S
