With a few exceptions, 80's were bad around my old home near BWI, but you can't get a much worse stretch in the snow dept. for BWI than 72-77. Winter of 77/78 finally broke the string. As for CC, I neither think nor worry about it.

Who said that? But we've had bad luck with a strong PDO in recent years. Predictions of a strengthening -PDO are not what I would consider a positive for snow lovers in the east. Out west it's a different story.

For snow lovers in the east, the PDO has sadly become Pretty D@mn Overwhelming for our snow chances.

There was speculation last fall that the volcano that ejected all that water vapor would cause a strong PV for the winter. That wasn't the case and it was below normal almost the entire winter. We'll need that again and hope for some weakening of the PDO to have a better winter. Worldwide ocean temps are going to be much cooler than last year which should help fwiw.

Ohh....piece of a rainbow to my northeast.

Gotta cell developing right over me with some heavy, off and on, showers.

We wedgey for now. Harrisonburg, VA at 70 now with mid-upper 60's into north central VA. It’s coming. https://www.wrh.noaa.gov/map/?obs=true&center=39.4473115,-79.941553&density=1&zoom=7&basemap=OpenStreetMap&boundaries=true,false&obs_popup=true

Fwiw, the April Plumes off of the SEAS5 (Euro) backed off a stronger Nina from March's plumes. https://charts.ecmwf.int/products/seasonal_system5_nino_plumes?base_time=202404010000&nino_area=NINO3-4

Sky looking dark and angry to my north with mammatus clouds.

More development to my NW. Both Nams showed nothing. Lol

Sun's out. .32" in around 15 minutes.

Just crazy how heavy the rain is while I see blue skies a plenty to my north.

P.s. Thunder too!

Ughhh...getting ready to mow after waiting for the grass to dry and now getting crushed by that renegade, heavy cell. Now I'm ticked.

It should weaken by the time it gets to Harrisburg.
