2 weeks till 7 PM sunsets

Sunset from Saddleback. Just a bit too cold for comfort on the slopes. Started at -10F this morning and barely got to 10F above. Tomorrow and Wednesday look almost too balmy but we’ll take it.

How’s the band on 66 headed into DC? Looks legit on radar

Rte 3 median in crofton.

really felt warm today because of higher sun angle

Interesting. I hiked Seneca regional park (super pretty, pictures will come later) but didn’t notice a different between the top of the hills and the Potomac at the bottom. Guess everything was cold enough.

Mid 20s all day. 1.5" total. Nice little event to whiten up the bare ground.

Yes I'm just about 1 mile from the river... I know the Billop house well, been there several times. My Travis house is our family home that my dad built in 1959 and where my weather equipment has been for ages. Truth be told we have been in some conversations about selling, so don't know what the future holds.

Man the Euro weeklies beyond 2 weeks have been deeply unserious all winter--they've been hawking the warmups all winter only and then bail out everytime, lol

Snowing in Cape May.

29 with a steady light snow falling. A solid inch on the deck.

70 after 29 getting snow covered .

This Winter Season (December thru February) of 2025-26 here in the philly burbs of Chester County PA finished as the 14th coldest winter across 133 winter seasons since 1893-94. Below are the top 20 coldest winters. Of note 4 of the coldest have occurred since Y2K.

I would have bet money the weeklies would cool at least week 3 seeing how all the ensembles look by mid month.

Solar production is spiking even on cloudy days. Sun angle and length of days really evident now.

Remember, while a big snowstorm can happen, im simply referring to getting accumulating snow. I dont think you realize how rare it is to get NO measurable snow after Feb 28th. Since 1884, it happened once at Chicago (1994) and since 1880 it happened twice at Detroit (1946, 2010). In 2010 we had snow on the ground to start March, so only 1946 saw no semblance of measurable snow after Feb 28.

Not on my side of town. Grass is white and that's it. Maybe a 1/4". My guess is that spotter is east or north of town. When I left Kernstown (3 miles north) earlier there looked to be close to an inch on grassy surfaces and trees.

2-4" looks good.

Every vertical foot matters.

Big ol' parachutes coming down here with this little WAA driven event. Enjoying them while they last!

That week is probably our last legit shot until next year.

Columbia pre-snow hi temp 35.1 4:30pm - 29.9 Widely scattered on/off flurries began 1pm but snow didn’t pick up in intensity until 1:45 and it quickly became heavy, tiny flakes. Eyeballing about 1” so far altho 0.75” is more conservative/accurate(?). Will wait until this round ends. Roads and walks fine. Of the list of items we usually monitor to confirm “first signs of stickage”, the last one today in my ‘hood was car tops, just not what I expected. I’ll blame it on that damn morning veiled sunshine.

Saturday is going to one of those times I hate CAD!!

Perish the thought. No not a city boy, it's fine for some, but I could never live there, or any city for that matter. I grew up in Rockland but as an adult I've lived my entire life in Orange County. The first five years in New Windsor and the last 30+ in Highland Mills. I never did think of joining. Other than snowfall, days of snow cover and first freezes, first hard freeze, last freeze,sub zero days, I don't really track daily, highs and lows or even rainfall.
