How about more “evidence” on the highly regarded 18z AI EPS. Lots of cold green temps showing up nearby on St. Patty’s Day.

More “evidence” on the 18z GEFS towards mid month.

Clouds will increase tonight and cloud cover will likely impede viewing of the lunar eclipse near sunrise tomorrow. Periods of mixed precipitation giving way to periods of rain are likely later Tuesday and Tuesday night. The temperature will reach the upper 30s and lower 40s. A sustained warming trend will commence on Wednesday. The second week of March could feature springlike readings. Long Island and coastal sections could be noticeably cooler than interior sections on a number of days on account of a chilly onshore flow. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +1.0°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was -0.1°C for the week centered around February 25. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +0.62°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged -0.28°C. Neutral ENSO conditions have now developed. Neutral ENSO conditions will continue through at least mid-spring. The SOI was +16.18 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was -0.670 today.

Shocker with the water temps. I know people want the warmth, I’m among them, but it’s going to be a struggle to see serious sustained warmth.

How about the “evidence” on the best ensemble in the world, the EPS from 12z today. By March 14, the colder pattern is emerging & remains in place at the end of the run on day 15.

Probably the last night or two with partial snow cover. Remarkable that we’ve had cover since 1/16. 45 days. Highly unlikely we make 50 with the rain and temps the next few days but still a month and a half straight of snow cover here. Another rarity around here.

Don - do you have access to the winter season severity index specific rankings for cities like NYC and Philly? Both are listed as "extreme" for both cities (and most in the NE), which means top 20% (top 33 or so out of ~165), but I'm curious where this winter ranks exactly. TIA. Also curious how close your scores are to these. chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://journals.ametsoc.org/view/journals/apme/54/8/jamc-d-14-0217.1.pdf

I did see this today. I even mentioned to myself that it was one of the cleanest contrast differences I’ve seen.

He said it would be a blowtorch & then cold around the 15th Good Lord did he steal your woman or something

Less than a week.

Only really shows up like that on the GFS op. All the ensembles, Euro, GEM, show a toasty Saturday.

I thought I was the only one who hates later sunsets. Nothing better than those early December sunsets

I’m expecting norrisville to have gotten the same

Think mby is done for today, 2.1” final. Brings me to 17.4”, close to my median climo (which is lower than mean climo). Beating last year’s 16.9” by a hair.

Measured 0.5” here. Light sleet currently.

Did anyone else see this at the northern edge of the overcast cloud deck today? It's like someone took a straight edge, drew a line across the sky, and colored the bottom blue. I saw it, but this is NOT my photo.

Bye-bye, fruit trees?

Yes. It's science.

This is depressing. I rather have early sunsets.

Wait until Morch 15-24

F’n cold tonight!
