John,
What's the longest consistent weather pattern that you can recall? We've been in the deep-freeze with a strong northwest flow for several days, and it looks like it will be with us for several more days. When it's all said and done, the pattern will last two weeks or so. I know we've had much longer unchanged patterns. Does that miserable summer of 1988 come to mind? It seems like it started hot and dry and stayed that way all summer. Is it more likely that an extreme summer pattern will remain unchanged as opposed to an extreme winter pattern?
