It's time!

Is there any hope for me, or are we going to stay more cold than mild straight into April? Is this pattern ever going to fully break down or is it going to be cold shot after cold shot for weeks and weeks?

28.6 for a low last night. Last hard freeze of the season?

The warmth finally came east after geting stuck in the west all winter.

Exactly

Yes for the west coast and parts of the Midwest but not for the east coast.

Really cold air is finished. Slight chance of more snow in the east south of New England but its mostly over . If these would like a few days ago then we would of had a good chance of anow.

Can’t wait to dig into this

Palm Springs, CA hit 106F today, a new monthly record. Palm Springs, CA has now come within 28 degrees of the all time highest temperature ever recorded on Earth in the wintertime! They are expected to go higher tomorrow and Friday.

Exactly. I feel for you. it's real. Worcester however? I don't think so...

Good for the globe! Its been mentioned many, many times. It doesn't change the fact that it was a colder than average winter in the Great Lakes and northeast, or that the cold in that part of the globe often refused to budge. I understand that getting a cold winter where 90% of this forum resides, despite more widespread world warmth, does not sit well with some. But it doesnt mean it didnt happen or cant be discussed.

Sounds delicious. I can cook pretty well, but my fiance makes some bomb dishes. Will post a pick when it’s finished.

The heat wave in the SW, US over the next 10 days is probably more impressive than 2012. Ranks up there with June 2021 in the NW with std of top warm departures all time.

Both the 12z and 18z GFS have another system in the d8-9 range. This is the time of year(shoulder season) when that model can score a coup just like it did a couple of days ago. Not saying it is the gospel, but I think the end of the month is a time frame to be watched. That was a pretty stout run. The 12z Euro has the amplification w/out the storm.

Im referring specifically to several posts that repeatedly referenced that following this cold shot, the western torch would envelop the entire conus and clearly that is not the case. Just had our coldest st paddys day in 59 years. And after milder days this weekend, there are several more cold shots en route for the lakes and northeast while the southwest continues to burn. Torch is subjective i guess. The word torch was never used til 2012. Now anything a few degrees above normal is a torch to some.

HH GEFS lost the 23rd, which was the best signal for something at 12z. Moved towards the Canadians and Europeans with signal for frozen for the rest of the month well north. Shocking.

Damn, even warmer than 2012? That’d be extremely impressive

1.4" of large flakes at home, double that in Grayling. 11.4" for March, 67.6" for the season which is 115% of a normal season here and my first AN season in 7 winters. I moved so they were not all here fwiw. Drift on the balcony keeps getting deeper, lol.

Anthony, today’s NAO forecast is consistent with yesterday’s (bad/+): Yesterday’s GEFS: Today’s GEFS:

This is incredible stuff JNS, just outstanding. I’ve known about the MDT/CXY seasonal and diurnal temperature differences you outlined but never laid it out so eloquently and obviously didn’t have the data to back it up. The other data you put meaning to is fascinating as well. Excellent work all the way around. I did want to mention that we’ve had several discussions over the years about the Harrisburg climate site changing locations but no one has ever done a deep dive on the data as you have here. Tremendous work and extremely informative. You have a real talent for this. Bravo, good sir.

I mean when are we talking here? Or is this just fantasy? Edit: oh ok..I see, that’s for Monday.

Delicious! One of my favorite things to do for dinner on Friday nights is prepare a chicken and flank steak and create a little "Build your own burrito bowl" station in the kitchen and everyone can customize. We get Guatemalan crema from the local Hispanic market 2 minutes from the house. On nice days, I'll just walk there. Fresh cut veggies and cilantro lime rice as the base.....incredibly good! Gotta make fresh pico de galo too!!

I am gonna try it lol. Got pretty solid reviews.
