February 2026 OBS & Discussion

May 9 2020 we had on and off snow showers most of the day. Even NYC picked up a trace. I received almost an inch during one of the squalls with the green grass and cherry tree blossoms almost getting covered. 34° and heavy snow during the afternoon of May 9. I'd only seen that one other time up around here and that was the 1977 May 9 snow event. That was much worse than the 2020. -
Oh, I get it. I love the effort you put in to all of this and I’m sure it must get emotionally draining.

Well, March did the trick just bc of the sun...pack rotted. -
I haven't given up yet. The track keeps me intrigued, and the moving parts (maybe something will go right for once instead of wrong as with recent NC storm). And the simple fact that we have barely gotten any moisture since the snow/sleet beatdown storm. But like with the Euro image i posted above, I'm very worried about temps for my backyard even if the track trends toward "perfect." Silver Spring doesn't do marginal well.

I guess everyone including myself gave up on the weekend, but at 18Z pretty significant jump North on the AI EURO that everyone loves. Also, a significant jump in snow prob. (Comparison to 12Z).

Noone is afraid to hear it. We're just exhausted by your insufferable, boorish repetitiveness.
-
You need a phased, strong system to get enough dynamic cooling for snow.

Great for sleigh riding but how many kids even own a sled these days ? I still have mine purchased on Christmas Eve 1966 - who remembers that storm ?
-
AI tugging me back in a bit. Enough to at least check the 0z runs later

Right after the epic Arctic front on Valentine’s Day we cooked in DC
-
I'm convinced it's not melting unless we get heavy rain fog or temps in the 50s. Even today lost very little

The first half to 2/3 were warm, with 60s and 70s in the middle of the month. That last week to 10 days were a return to winter, so the month ended NN. April-July 2011 was an absolute torch, culminating with all-time record highs on 7/22. -
Yeah I just saw the euro AI moved north and then goes south with the next one
-
Sort of, but not in the way i meant it....it was frigid in 2015 but we stopped getting good snow events and the south coast and mid-atlantic actually got some in late Feb and March. But yeah, 2015 couldve been put into even further epic territory if we had scored anotehr big dog in March that year. I really meant years where it just basically melts off slowly in 40F weather with no reinforcements of significance.

I need consistency and consensus....too much volatility. -
Those hours of sleet created this winter wonderland weve had for forever .

Same with me, and yes, March was below average temperaturewise, a continuation of a historically cold February (almost like how this February BN is a continuation of January). But as we know, things even out over time, and May 2015 was near record warm. I'm seeing the same progression here. We don't go months on end BN, like we did in 95-96, with no really good reason. -
2011 i think was my favorite March ever. Did we have 60s, 70s, and even some 80's for daaaayyyze

Watching them turn bitter before the seasons change is a rite of passage

this recent storm could have been similar but those hours of heavy sleet messed that up
