Winter weather for N. America 2020/2021 highlights from AccuWeather:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Never knew that last year New York City only managed pitiful "4.8" inches of snow throughout the whole winter 2019/20 season. - Given the 1991-2020 average for the whole winter is 26.1 inches of accumulated snow for the Big Apple.
Been a consistent trend over the past few years I notice with the western 3rd of the USA esp NW of USA/Canada seeing below normal temperatures - I wonder if this is down to the persistent NE pacific HP ridge building to the south of Alaska and allowing the jet to dive into northern Canada and central and northwestern USA giving the brutal cold snow and cold!? The ridge building in the NE pacific is a constant sign of above normal SST's in that area!? What do you think? Also there is a warm ridge over the South and south east of the USA?
