Roads are starting to cave lol. Light snow and 24. Last hurrah?

Meant to post this reply earlier but sill sitting here as a draft... I really love this post. It would sound lame to a non-weenie, but this kind of data collection and maintenance must be a huge point of pride. There is something so gratifying about being a steward of records, and thats coming from someone whose observation task involves about a tenth of what yours does, so I can only imagine the feeling of accomplishment. It's honestly why I hope I never have to give it up unnecessarily. So great.

WBAL is at bwi and is reporting a 4hr wait for TSA wait. Your boy would be driving or canceling.

Closer to home… it’s 24 here.

Seems like BWI is the only local airport facing challenges. A colleague was flying out to DEN yesterday. Arrived 3 hours early and the TSA line went out the building and down the departures ramp that the parking shuttle busses use for drop off. Insanity.

Yea, the only El Niño in the last 45+ years even remotely comparable to this one is 1997-98. Even the 1982-83 and 2015-16 Nino’s weren’t this far advanced in March. If those twin TC’s verify next week, and that’s starting to look likely, IMO, this is a “high-end” strong El Niño at minimum with prospects for a super event going up a lot…..

22F for the low , current 24/ windchill @20 light breeze

31 right now

You need to fix your 401k if it dropped.

0z Canadian has a Wintry mix early Next Saturday am for CTP. Lots of sleet this run for many of us. Who knows, maybe this season has one more Wintry period to track?

20 degrees this morning but sunny at least.

Temps dropping more than my 401k under this administration

Pope told me last freeze was already in the past.

We are currently on track for a very strong event potentially recording an ONI of +2.0 or greater like we recently experienced in 23-24 based on current OHC and WWB intensity unless it’s interrupted by EWBs next few months. The biggest factor will be getting the WWBs to continue through June in order for the subsurface El Niño signal to become fully established at the surface. We can remember the strong EWB in June 2014 which halted the El Niño development when the models had been forecasting +2.0 for 2014-2015. It’s funny how we eventually got the super El Niño a year later. So it was delayed but not denied. That was the last time that the models forecast a +2.0 event that didn’t verify. So unless this process gets derailed by EWBs next few months, there won’t be anything to slow the development going forward. We will need about 3 more months of observations to know if this one can reach its top potential. https://news.yale.edu/2016/02/08/new-insights-stalled-el-ni-o-2014

Is it too early to put down grass seed?

28F down here with a light breeze

25 this morning.

An historic event to be able to swim in the Pacific this early in the year especially for people that have been on vacation from colder climates and didn’t expect the SSTs to be this warm.

Thank god for the weak La Nina to Neutral Enso conditions this past winter. Next winter we might be able to juice it up but probably way too much if it's strong.

He focuses on tropical weather. He followed me a year ago and I gave him a follow back

To end the season. Boston : over 60 inches NYC : 42 inches

The PV disruption was a failure this month .

19F here. But no wind, so the skiing should be ok

Im a big weenie and I don't even know half of the people you post on here from Twitter. How do you find these people lol.

Would love a bit of refresher for Wachusett. Looking a bit sketchy.
