Do they allow for rounding to qualify a La Nina?

Been supporting Levi's work for many years!

T plus 2 weeks for me...

Every single nor'easter lies on the leading edge of a negatively tilted trough. This is in a ridge.

The impacts of this storm are from a convergence of moisture and flow from three primary systems. The minimum pressure of the primary low only reached about 998mb and will never go north of NC.

Not all tropical cyclones become tropical storms. All nor'easters are baroclinic in nature, meaning they are cold core and form at higher latitudes. This storm formed over Cuba was barotropic.

Even if this was baracolonic it still isn't what around here would consider to be a true nor'easter.

This isn't a nor'easter, it formed in Cuba, has a warm core, no cold tap, and peaked at about 998mb. It was click-bait primarily to label it as a nor'easter.

Of course...

I love tracking down anomalies in data, but I always fail to find evidence of aliens or bigfoot. Dust devil looks quite plausible with three different anomalous indications.

I get that it is a binary system and they are clearly interacting though with strong external forces muddying the waters, but I think the Fujiwhara Effect is generally more tightly defined to just the orbital properties like the types of interactions in your paper.

While the storms are obviously interacting, how is this Fujiwhara when they aren't actually circling a common center which seems to be the basis of the Fujiwhara effect and not interacting in other ways.

I remember your post about survivor bias and of course saw the Google ensemble members. Regardless, you can't draw conclusions from just one storm in a very complicated setup. This is also only the low's center and not other aspects of the storm.

For Northeast winter cyclogenesis the ECMWF has a very common over-amping bias at 3+ days. Not sure if this is related. It affects almost every coastal storm modeled around 990 and below.

#1, but when hurricane season is over I would like to encourage you to do similar presentations for North American cyclones as that would be very valuable to me and my focus at least (i.e. nor'easters). Everything similar seems to be exclusive to tropics. Great work on this of course!

It would be a glacier if I'm not mistaken (that's colder than Green Bay was in the last glacial maximum). 🧐

It's the algorithm (coming from someone who's is heavily on FB). When they start boosting posts to non-followers the nuts interact more frequently especially with anything climate related and it literally trains the distribution to like minded people. I stay away from viral general weather content.

I stopped interacting on that platform the day Nazis were replatformed. Elon Musk is a terrible person and staying there means you are unconscionable regardless of one's justification.
