NOAA Releases 2019-2020 Winter Outlook - Favors Above Average Temps Across Much of the Country
My State Line ^ | 10/19/19 | Candice King

Posted on 10/23/2019 2:32:27 AM PDT by Libloather

NOAA released its official winter outlook Thursday morning, predicting a higher probability for above average temperatures across much of the country, and above average precipitation for much of the Upper Plains, Midwest and Great Lakes. Forecasters say that even though colder than average temperatures are not favored, there will likely be some areas that end up with temperatures below average for the winter season (December-February).

The El Niño Southern Oscillation often times influences our winter weather here in the United States, however forecasters with NOAA say we are currently in neutral conditions (neither El Niño or La Niña are present) and those are expected to last through Spring 2020. This means long-term trends played more of a role in the winter outlook. It also means that other climate patterns such as the Arctic and North Atlantic Oscillations, as well as the Madden-Julian Oscillation, will likely determine more of our winter weather locally. Arctic air masses are more frequent when the Arctic and North Atlantic Oscillations are in their negative phase. Unfortunately, the predictability for those types of climate patterns is limited to just a couple weeks.

Being that Colorado has some idiotic weather patterns, we’ll probably get ten inch blizzards every weekend like we got in winter 2006-07.

"predicting a higher probability...

What does that even mean? You can state 'higher probability', or 'predict' an outcome, but how do you predict a probability?

So, NOAA says “above average” on their manipulated data scale, so therefore it will ONLY be 10 degrees cooler than normal?

The propaganda of this weather observation is so widespread and being taught in schools as FACT is truly disturbing . Coupled with this manufactured droning of #’s that can easily be disputed is the actual goal of siphoning huge amounts of MONIES that we are told will surely combat the definite extinction of we Gods children . For it to be pounded constantly by NOAA and not rebuffed by anyone in a position to do so is the actual problem.....when you have brain dead morons screeching that if we don’t stop utilizing the petro chemicals God gives us we will all die within a certain time frame it is disheartening and futile to offer realistic facts from what we actually DO KNOW from the thin file of records that we have as opposed to hypothetical temperatures and events from eons past and future . I predict that we will have rain,snow and cold along with warm weather this winter......give me a 200,000 grant so that I may be able to continue my grueling work to save us all from ourselves .

They sure covered all their bases.

Now no matter what happens, they can say they were right.

And I'm supposed to be the climate change doomsday scenarios when they can't even tell us what this winter's weather is going to be?

I just read a couple of weeks ago that we’re in for a deep freeze this winter. Go figure.

Tony Heller has videos proving AGW propaganda from NOAA and others, and uses their own published data to do so.

Anyone have a web site for historical temperatures? I used to find plenty of them, but it seems that someone doesn’t want us knowing what the temperature was on this date X number of years ago.

Persimmon seeds have a spoon this year which is supposed to mean lot’s of snow to shovel but they had spoons last year and we didn’t get all that much snow.

Persimmon seeds are as accurate as any human at predicting weather months ahead.

They are climate change doomsday cults.

“Science” has become the new religion—totally unfalsifiable garbage for the idiot masses.

Rupert Sheldrake’s banned Ted Talk is worth a watch if you have not seen it:
