Okay… I’ll step back out from under my rock for this one. 🫣 That is one wild run coming out of the European model suite tonight… Feast your eyes, but be wary of the modeling whiplash ahead. 00Z ECMWF deterministic model wants to drown Southern California. #CAwx

⚠️4" to 12"+ rainfall in 7-day forecast for Southern California ... then risk for winter cold & snow across West as "whole load" polar vortex whips through state into end of Nov. Concurrent with stratospheric warming event -- we ain't seen nothin' yet --> "climate breakdown"

WILD weather coming up for the West Coast with multiple "polar vortex" related systems for the next 2-weeks+ with exceptionally cold temperatures to end November. Flooding potential for Southern California w/boatloads of rain from atmospheric river flows

Pretty insane possible rainfall totals over the next 7 days shoown by some computers. Could easily see over 50% of our entire winters average rainfall in spots if this verifies. Perfect example of how just a single major wet pattern can change the entire course of a wet season

Trillions of gallons of water are forecast to fall across California as a parade of storms slams the state. Current projections put this on pace to become one of the top 20 wettest Novembers in California’s recorded history. The state hasn’t had a top-20 wet November since 1998.

This is our craft, shaping environments where others can do their best work—even when the org chart doesn’t work in your favor. Authority might have faded, but leadership hasn’t. It’s just moved out of the center and into the connective spaces where real progress happens
