Seems like we have the exact opposite pattern currently than the early May 2012 one. Cold central Pacific anomalies butting up to still warmer than normal water off western N America. So what does that give us for late May??? Snow??? And the N Atlantic blue blob is expanding again. to me the blue blob is just what the antarctic let lose .. but people say i'm nuts it did melt a hell of a lot of cold and it had to go somewhere .. it is in the right place as the nino stopped it from mixing to much .. we may also see it in the indian ocean .. but prob not till next yr

Starting to look more and more like 1983, in regards to US summer weather pattern. The large cool pool of water in the Northern Pacific is a large driver of US precip and temperature. Here, on the southern edge of the Great Plains - Mid-west it looks like this 1983 pattern produced slightly less summer precipitation than normal. But not as low as 2012 (with the warmer than normal central Pacific). I have precipitation graphs, but I can't post them because our site quota has been reached ... Still. Missouriboy: Use photo bucket or flicker to upload the pics. Then you can post a link that we can all get our grubby little/big hands on. I did it the other day for the sea surface temp pic and it worked well.

You may be correct. I just can't find it yet. But that doesn't mean it's not there.

i53.photobucket.com/albums/g55/fleariderflearider/sst_anom616_zpsc1no9vuo.gifwell hope that worked you will see red areas and black lines the red is the heat that would keep the cold low the black lines the current speaks for itself .. but next yr with another build up in antarctic mass and maybe the last big melt (prob one more ) you will find the pacific nearly all blue as well as the atlantic top end only the gulf stream will be quiet red this is were we will see the indian ocean starting to cool .. and then with the near total cool n/h we will see the nina ... and some very intresting times ..

The anomaly year of 1983 has given up the ghost, in regards to being similar to 2016 growing season.
NOW..........looking at 1972-1974 time frame.
Later cold wet spring, and warm summer. Then come September, the bottom fell out of the temperature.
1973 was NOT a good production year.
IF, and that is a large IF, we don't have a disaster of some sort this production year, the length of large crops year on year will continue to break the record books.
DAMN that global warming!

So, Mr. Sig, am I reading this right: good for me the consumer, bad for you the farmer?

If they keep it right, rice could be more expensive then gold if a cooling climate wipes out northern hemisphere arable land!!

What must the monsoon have looked like 4-8 millennia ago when the rain proxies were nearly twice as high? Of course, there were many fewer people to feed.
