All it’s been doing is dumping rain this month

No but the nearby sites were all 50-58”…Weare, Francestown, Greenville, and Bradford.

Yes I'm out shoveling stone to put in my lane came in now for lunch and I see the temperature is only 39. I thought it was warmer then that. That March sun is doing wonders. Today despite the temperature and virtually no wind is turning into a beautiful day. To me yesterday sucked with that cold and wind. Better days with heat and humidity are coming...sometime.

Wow, I’m less than half of that.

You have their data from March 2001?

29 this morning. Hard freeze expected again Friday night and Saturday high around 42. Last freeze here is usually end of March/early April. So figure a few more weeks before growing season begins

You are 100% correct.

Normal temps this time of year are fantastic with the late March into April sun. I’ll gladly take that right now. I’m ready for spring (NOT SUMMER). I have my limits

Today's mid 30's feels SO much better than yesterday's mid 30's. Sunshine changes everything.

The death ridge in early April won't help either.

Yes, correct. Neutral/-QBO would be higher than nina/-qbo and Neutral/+QBO would be lower than nino/+qbo.

Reposting some of the charts I posted previously. Your line doesn't look anything like the raw data from individual stations. There is no significant difference in warming between individual Chester County stations and the Philadelphia Airport. Of course cooling station moves should be excluded. That's why the West Chester plot ends in 1969. Per the table below, there are big changes in the Chester County station population that you aren't accounting for. In comparison, the Philadelphia airport heat island is mature and isn't changing much from decade to decade. If heat island is important, why ignore the movement of Chester County stations out of towns after World War II?

I remember those vividly...had like 6" and then 8" to finish the best winter of my life in style.

In addition to Fairbanks, cities such as Anchorage and Yellowknife, NW Territories as well as the area in between and surrounding have a chance to have their all time record coldest Marches. That’s ~2,000 miles long and ~400 miles wide area or ~800K square miles, which is ~18% of the combined square miles in Canada and Alaska or ~25% of the size of the lower 48! Does anyone have a link to monthly records for Canadian cities and more specifically Yellowknife? Anyone have a link to maps showing historic temperature anomalies by month for Canada like we have for the US?

As I recall, in order of most likely to least likely to have a SSWE during winter: El Niño/-QBO, La Niña/-QBO, El Niño/+QBO, La Niña/+QBO

I do know what you mean on that....unlike other disappointments, like 12-5-03, PD II, 1-29-22 and even 12/96 round two to a degree, I wasn't even close this time. I missed 2' by like 40 miles and the holy grail by like 60 miles. It was only awful because guidance got it up here, and then pulled away at the last moment.

Fishing for smallmouths for years on the river. Use 6lb and 12lb Fluorocarbon mostly . Currently 44 degrees. Looks like some more rain Friday.

nice headed out lewes/rehobo way for easter... fingers crossed for a torch

2.59” melted through the tipper here. Sad.

40 now

I had hope that the cold front on Friday would at least bring some showers but it is looking more and more anemic.

The last 4 years, Stratosphere has been a huge hit with favored QBO state Nov-Feb. +QBO -QBO It doesn't automatically translate to AO state, although this Nov's SSW did precede more -AO conditions early to mid Winter. The last 2 March Stratosphere warmings have not lead to -NAO conditions +time. Typically Stratosphere warmings have a lag, and coolings correlate at 0-day

meanwhile up here in ville, 9" of snow, and 1.5" of rain MTD

Thursday night looks like another round

My guess is that we will have a completely different stratosphere/SPV this coming winter given the anticipated +QBO/El Niño/+IOD
