Im assuming everyone already saw the new “retro” weather forecast on the weather channel? Straight back to high school…Local on the 8s, narrator and music included! https://weather.com/retro/

Hard to argue with how this winter went, although I certainly would've liked to have seen more than 5" at a time. I ended the year with right at 20", pretty solid and right on average. I've seen plenty of below-average winters since moving up here so an average year is a win for me. That absolutely gorgeous December snow also gives a boost.

One for the ages, 13 inches of cement on the ground here. I'll never forget watching it rip down big, wet, silver dollar + sized flakes. Started around 3pm here and fell overnight. Probably close to 20 inches fell, but there was lots of compacting for 13 inches on the ground.

Will do.

I'd be so happy, in fact I'd be so REBORN from the April Fools Blizzard of 2026 in Washington, DC with 39 inches of fresh snow, that I'd fly in on a red-eye just for the occasion.

Please hid my thread Michelle. I'll gladly take a little less than an inch out of the front. Here's to a typical Season with no damaging Tropical Mischief!

Its getting close to 4 dollars a gallon in Buda.

I'll believe it when I see it...

My numbers for the month of March 2026. Total precip was 2.12 inches vs a normal of 3.52 inches, -1.40 inches below average. The greatest rainfall was on the 16th with 0.65" falling. There were 13 days with measurable, 1 day with a 'T' and 17 dry days. Total snowfall for the month was 0.5 inches vs a normal of 4.5 inches, -4.0 inches below average. The greatest snowfall was 0.4" on the 17th. There were 2 days with measurable, 2 days with a 'T' and 27 snowless days. The average high temp was 62.9 degrees vs a normal of 54.4 degrees, a +8.5 degrees above average. The warmest temp recorded was 83.9 degrees on the 23rd. The averaged low temp was 34.2 degrees vs a normal of 30.0 degrees, a + 4.2 degrees above average. The coolest temp recorded was 17.0 degrees on the 18th. Overall averaged temp was 48.6 degrees vs the normal of 42.2 degrees, a + 6.4 degrees above average and places it into a tie for 3rd warmest March with 1997. There were 17 days with winds above 25 mph. Several new records, 3 new record highs on the 7th, 12th and the 23rd. One new record 'cool max' set on the 18th. A wild and weird month, overall very warm and dry, with several days that went from near record highs to snow within hours. And several days the exact opposite of going from a very cool morning to near record highs by with 40+ degree swings.

Yupp. Got a lil sun burnt doing garden clean up. Once the sun burned off the fog and mist it got warm real quick.

I'll take almost an inch and be happy! Here is to a typical Spring/Summer period with NO Tropical mischief!

Not a problem thanks for the forecast. @donsutherland1 @MJO812 we will be starting May forecasts to be due back at May 1st by 6z and each month after for the future. Would love to see everyone still participate but of course life happens. I will do my best to make it as close to what Roger was trying to do for these contests as we go along.

Awesome if you have time to drop a forecast this weekend we will keep late penalties out for this one.

First garden variety storm of the season rolled through.

I escaped the wedge around 1 pm. Damp and cool when I got in the car at home...sunny and glorious when I got out in College Park.

not here: DCA hit 82F, IAD hit 84F, and BWI hit 77F.

Far different air mass here compared to yesterday evening. Cold northeast winds from Alekville have kept us north of the warm front, and thus reducing the nader threat to zero.

At least we may get a 2am high while we’re in REM sleep.

I remember models were showing a lot of moisture, for several weeks. Maybe it didn't pan out. I'm also talking about for the whole US.

I have no idea what temp I hit but it felt somewhere around 70℉ about an hour ago. The sun's been out here for the last few hours. I'm experiencing a little qdrizzle at the moment ,mbut the sun's still out. I'm working right down the road from my house in Fairview, township atm.

Yeah got up to 53 here with very little sun. nice day said no one ever

45.7° off a high of 49°. Still some snow piles around. We Chernobyl.

The only time we got wet was the Nor'easter in the closing days of April, which brought a lot of rain the weekend of the 28th-30th. Other than that, late winter and spring 2023 was dry, with May being the driest on record. Late June and early July is when it got wet.

Looks to be rocking and rolling down south of Peoria

First flowers on azaleas . Not many , but purple close to pop
