Beautiful forecast for International Falls , Minnesota.

Beautiful forecast for International Falls , Minnesota.

43 degrees this morning. Picked up 1.03” in the last 24 hours. Got new AC/heat split installed this week. Guess I get to try out the heat mode this morning. River is going up to 9.7 ‘ which is almost action stage.

35/ windchill 33 .26" since midnight.

There hasn't been plenty cold aloft since at least early March. I was in Vermont for 3 days (March 7-9), and it was 55+ each day. I knew winter was essentially over at that point. And that's okay, as sometimes, the coolest winters end abruptly. Look at 2010 (after February) and 2015 (after March), for example. 2010 had (at the time, it was broken only 2 years later) the warmest spring on record, and 2015 had a near record warm May. The Euro is also showing a torch pattern mid-month, coast-to-coast.

This video has some awesome fire tornado footage and information on events that i'm both familiar and unfamiliar with.

38 and pouring

March 2026 finished as our 18th warmest March since 1894 here in Chester County PA. The top 5 warmest March months are below. I also have attached the average temperature trends for March since 1894. Blue is raw and Red in NOAA altered adjusted temperatures.

Lots of noise, not much wind. .80 rain in 1 hr. Nice downpours, overwhelmed the gutters. Temp dropped 15 degrees. National Harbor.

Checking in from abroad to see that I got 0.01” at home yesterday, which tracks.

Before I forget mine: DCA: +2.4 NYC: +1.9 BOS: +0.8 ORD: +0.8 ATL: +1.5 IAH: +1.7 DEN: +1.3 PHX: +0.9 SEA: +0.4

Upon further review, Cansips is progging a W to C based ~+2 to +2.2 ONI from SON through JFM. I’d assume that would mean ~+1.5 to +1.7 W to C based RONI. Nothing bad about that if it were to verify. But I’m taking it w/grain due to La Niña temp pattern, which doesn’t make sense per history.

From January scores done by Roger, February done by wxdude64, and March done by myself (just above) here are the standings as of the end of March. I hope this is all correct and this should become much smoother as we move forward. Bolded are the tops scores in each category. The asterisk is for months that were missed. We have quite the grouping going on and love to see newcomers each month. I will send out a message to folks about April who see missing thus far.

A bit unsure locally of threat for SVR, but nonetheless waves of storm chances will keep things pretty enjoyable throughout the next couple days.

my phone decided to show the wizards game scores on the lock screen. Take a look at these scores tonight in REGULATION: PHL - 153 WAS - 151 BOS - 147 MIA - 129 NYK - 130 MEM - 119 IND - 149 CHI - 126 DEN - 130 UTA - 117 The Sixers scored 47 points in the 3Q. The Celtics scored 53 points in the 1Q. Guess no one was playing defense tonight.

Here is the March update. Denver and Phoenix experienced unprecedented warmth for the month of March and all of us were over +5 away from actual anomalies so it resulted in a score of 0. Until I can figure out how to do Roger's 60 rule for extremely anomalous temperatures we will have to keep these at 0. If you find any of these numbers to be off/wrong or I missed anyone please feel free to reach out. I will add the accumulated score through the end of March in a bit. I left out Consensus and normal for now as the way i calculated it (consensus) is slightly off to how Roger had it back in January/February.

Pretty cool to see the moon out and distant lightning

Wait, people follow them?

Yay thunderstorms. I was at Tenebrae for Holy Week in Old Town and saw a few flashes of lightning through the stained glass windows of St. Marys. Spring!

My sinuses are starting to act up with the trees blooming. The one downside to a warm spring pattern.

Looks like a very nice soaker on the way for tonight through tomorrow night. Best rains in a loooong time. The degree of the severe threat is a bit questionable. Models show lots of ongoing rounds of precip through much of the day in the warm sector, so instability may be knocked back some. Still a nice setup though overall.

Fingers crossed for a Jan 25th repeat without the warm tongue.
