Seen last week a coal company in Schuylkill county said they are raising. prices $20.00 a ton for all coal sizes i think starting next week. Because of fuel prices to operate the equipment and trucking costs. And they said if fuel prices don't drop till near fall they will have raise them again. They were giving a heads up for people to get coal now.

Just awful. Can we get a 75 degree day please? LOL

57-58 and 65-66 also didn't have a strong east-based orientation. Since 1948, only 5 events: 72-73, 82-83, 97-98, 15-16, and 23-24 have been basin wide Super Nino. Kind of interesting that this will be the 3rd one in 12 years, in the midst of many weaker La Nina's.

If northeast Alabama into northwest Georgia can push 80 degrees this may expand east. I still think Tennessee will be too messy. We'll see about Tenn. Crossville likes to Crossville these skinny CAPE low level shear days. Upper Plateau gets first crack at the LLJ. Otherwise, as of 10:30 Central Time, a west-east differential heating boundary is noted from Birmingham to Atlanta. Northward lift will depend on precip.

Absolutely fantastic for many outdoor activities.

Let's see if it comes to fruition.

I consider Alaska's southeast coast the worst climate in the country. Today's weather in the DC area is quite possible on the Fourth of July there, except with 40 mph southwest winds. Juneau once had 51 consecutive days with measurable rainfall.

Ditty's winter moths doing some damage. Enough of them so you can hear them crapping.

Wasn't expecting this extended dry period this morning, I'm taking advantage and doing some outdoor stuff until the next batch comes in.

Yea, I know what you mean. 1957 and 1965 were very good here, but they were kind of borderline strong versus super.

Happy Memorial Day Weekend! Unfortunately weather wise it will be wet and almost record cold especially tomorrow afternoon. Most models now keep temperatures below 50 degrees tomorrow afternoon - this would break the Chester County record for low maximum temperatures for the date set back in 1982. There is a chance it could be the coldest late season high temperature on record. With gusty winds it will feel a lot more like early March than Memorial Day Weekend. Rain-wise models show between an inch to as much as 3.5" of much needed rain!

To clarify...I meant 1982-83 was the absolute shittiest winter of the bunch here. I grew up with my winter-hating dad saying he remembers how "great" that winter was. My mom (who loves winter) was pregnant with me and said she remembers feeling sick at Christmas Eve midnight mass because it was warm in her coat. It was pretty much on its way to being the least snowy winter on record, with only 9" falling thru March 19, but then two spring snowstorms (Mar 21 & Apr 17) added 11" so the winter finished at 20". No winter since has seen that little snowfall. Also, it still stands as the least snowy astrononomical winter on record with only 5.8" falling Dec 21-Mar 19. 1957-58 and 1965-66 at least had some cold, white stretches but were also absolutely atrocious snow years. In fact, both finished UNDER 20" of snowfall. I only give them the nod above 1982-83 since they had some cold & white stretches in winter. With the abysmal snowfall, as you would imagine, the snowdepth was only 2-3" during these wintry stretches 1997-98 and 2023-24 sucked overall, but were better than 1957-58, 1965-66, and 1982-83. 1972-73, 1987-88, 1991-92, 2015-16 all had some fun winter stretches and while none of them were great winters Id take any of them in a heartbeat over the others.

.35 now total since Wednesday. I was really hoping for 3 to 4 inches from this stretch.

Finally soakers have arrived here. A little over an inch since midnight.

I don't buy it.

Shocking

So far today .43" 1.47 mtd

Nonstop light rain since last night Vienna/Fairfax. Feels similar to Memorial Day weekend 1996, which was in the fifties and raining the whole time.

We finally got a little something overnight but we definitely need a lot more.

And obviously cooler on The Block but still plenty of nice beach days
