Even July 4 weekends. I remember a few years ago it rained that whole weekend and didn’t get out of the 50s. Usually Memorial Day is around when we stop getting hit with the nasty backdoor fronts.

Yeah ... in so far as this, I was not intending to argue that. Ha. No I'm just changing the subject a bit that we've appeared to slip back into this bias of cooler loading into SE Canada and NE/CONUS, not dissimilar to what plagued the the winter months. I provided those monthly means ( C/O NASA) around the 10th of every succeeding new month over winter and into early spring. Every month with the possible exception of March ( though arguable...), demoed we were cooler, either relative to local climatology when not relative to the planet as a whole. That annoys me, full disclosure. And I typically extol my extra special hatred for April, despite my love for "springing" away from winter - which I am definitely done with by ( usually...) February 15th every year but that's 'sides the point. Anyway, looking forward at guidance for the next ...actually out to the end of the 360s, if that really characterizes our verification we will likely be back in that cold bias region..

To state it better - The above chart Charlie highlights shows that NCEI has met their objective of taking out actual raw station data to alter the data to hide the cyclical pattern in the raw data. Of course, if you leave in all the station changes you won't match the revised/altered NCEI or any other "scientific" analysis. The above thread is actual data not influenced by bad analysis and confirmation bias.

People forget that spring sucks here. Always has and always will. Anything before Memorial Day is a crap shoot. We’ve had shitty Junes before where we couldn’t hit 80.

2026-2027 El Nino
LakePaste25 replied to Stormchaserchuck1's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
If it is not going to snow in December then I hope we get a December 2015 type outcome so I can enjoy the nice weather outdoors. December 2023 was not ideal, because it was still hostile for snow but it was in the 30s most days. -

We had a widespread hard freeze (sub 28 degree) this morning with the latest sub-30-degree temperature I have ever recorded (records back to 2004) here in East Nantmeal with a low of 27.4. In looking back at records for the higher elevation spots (+600 ft ASL) of Chester County this appears to be the latest reading in the 20's in 37 years since the 27-degree reading at Coatesville 2W on April 24, 1989. Both KMQS Coatesville Airport and the Longwood Gardens DEOS station with 18 years of records also recorded their latest sub 30 degree reading this morning. In addition, many of our shorter-term stations with 15 years of records also set a record for latest hard freeze including DEOS stations in Atglen, Devault, Glenmoore, Kennett Square, Warwick, West Chester and West Grove. We stay unseasonable chilly through tomorrow with highs by tomorrow warming to near 60 degrees. We should see above normal temperatures by Thursday before we fall back below normal for the weekend. We have some light shower chances tomorrow morning with a better chance at more significant rains by Saturday. -

Ugh! we missed out here in Chesco! So we will close our 2025-26 winter season with 15 winter events!! Actually Birds I am more efficient than you surmised with the entire Chester County data set on 2 cloud servers and an external drive. Spreadsheet wise - even more efficient with only 1 source excel spreadsheet mirrored on Google Sheets for analytics run off of Data Studio (a great analytics program by the way!) -
Ouch and double ouch! Got down to 27.2 here. Currently 38.9/22.1 at 9:20 am. EDIT- on a side note, see that Canaan NWR got down to 8.6 overnight!

Nothing is going on…welcome to spring… in SNE anyway…I don’t think we have to worry about 50 degree days in July in the mid Atlantic or SNE.
-
Yup…55-60 with the sun out bright with light wind is fine this time of year.

There was widespread 10s in the northern plains. My point though is that everyone got a piece of this. Maybe we linger some slightly BN temps into the weekend with chilly mins, but we’ll still have some napey 60° afternoons.

Yeah, I was 91.2 a few days ago and last night 23.9.

Low of 24, was below freezing from 10:45pm to 8:10am, a solid hard freeze, pun intended.

….Certainly slowed everything right down that’s for sure.
