If It Happens Next Year, Then It's Weird

Well, I'm glad people dont believe in Climate Change anymore, because West Coast Tropical Storms are kind of fun.

In 2022 TS Kay hit us with a band as it fell apart, but it was during a Santa Ana so it amplified the winds to up to 100 MPH on mountain peaks. Not much rain though.

In 2023 Hurricane Hilary fell apart as it came ashore in Mexico, but we got 2-3 inches of rain and the wind gusts were 45-75 MPH depending on location when it passed.

And I got the first one alert and warning ever issued in California.

2024 holiday do anything, remnant moisture at most.

Now...  we have Nardo and its models of Spaghetti.



And because all other storms are blowing up and threatening the globe, I figured why not here too? 

At very least its looking like well get hit by more rare September rain as it gets taken by the jet stream. 

Oceans were 71° to 74° today. So very cyclone killing temperatures.

But a few of those models are interesting.

It's been almost 150 years since a Cat 1 hit us... and it would have to rapidly intensify to 4 or 5 before it turned 120° and got moving fast enough to hold its strength, and that's rare for a Non El Nino year with colder ocean temps. That seems very far-fetched. 

But just a few more degrees of warming and this might start happening every year.

The whole subject of the jet stream, trade wind directions, El Nino and La Nina and their cycles is fascinating, yet complex.

"The 2025 climate year will likely be marked by the tail end of El Niño and the potential onset of La Niña. Each phase of the ENSO cycle brings unique weather challenges, and understanding these dynamics is key to being prepared. As the year unfolds, monitoring the evolution of these climate patterns will help individuals, businesses, and governments stay proactive and adaptable.
 By understanding the intricacies of El Niño and La Niña, we can better navigate the changes they bring to our global weather systems. As we head into 2025, staying informed about these shifts will be crucial for making intelligent agricultural, energy, and disaster management decisions."
