This prediction came out at the end of August (and appears to be way off). In southern California, we're well into the first week of September (as we all are) and we have another recording breaking week of high temps coming, because the jet stream positioned itself in such a way that allows the highs into the west (again), and the colder fronts move down into the mid-west (again). I just hope the jet stream positioning itself like this, won't affect the El Niño event California has been predicted to get. We really need rain.

It's like trying to predict how high the new global warming ocean tides will be. It's unknowable, and will continue to be unknowable as global warming causes weather not seen ever before. High tide will simply find it's own level, again and again.

(12,221 posts)the jet stream has been positioning so that all the storms move around California in the fall/winter/spring.
But, I don't know enough at all, so hopefully you're right!
