Oh please no... No more salty roads.

Going to have to hunt the neighborhood at some point for a lost trash can lol

Not really

Why do you leave for the summer?

Just saw the reporting of blizzard going to hit the Midwest Sunday with sever weather along the mid Atlantic

AI GFS with yet another bump north.

It was a flizzard here, We missed out on some others too, 19.5" for Feb is all we could muster, And was a bit disappointing after coming off of 30"+ back to back months in Dec and Jan.

Yea, my seasonal totals are usually considerable, but scrapped together by the left overs from NNE and SNE...don't usually end up ground zero for large events. Blizzard was a perfect example....royally bent over, but got 10" that NNE didn't get.

You better buy a ticket.

It’s always cloudy on higher risk days. Always get the “ if it clears out” but hardly ever does lol

I have a better chance of winning the lottery than that verifying

HRRR always has pretty meaningful swings from 48 hours to 24 hours and even 12 hours. It seems to often be an outlier that eventually comes closer to reality as the time frame narrows.

it has been consistent, at least. maybe consistently wrong, but we can hope.

Maybe a wintry end to winter for many but defintely a cool start to Spring.

and if you go in August they also have humidity with it.

Sure. 2023 sucked. Anytime you’re wiping out entire apple crops that’s a brutal late freeze. But I don’t recall many issues in previous years. The problem with peaches is a lot of the varieties you get in stores aren’t late blooming or cold hardy enough. So either the buds get fried from -15F in winter or they bloom too early and the flowers die in the spring. 3 of my 4 peach trees are on the late end of bloom timing and the other is more mid…Contender, Intrepid, Challenger, and Redhaven. Stone fruit in general are a PITA to grow.

He grew up and became your avatar…… Stay well, as always ….

Florida may be America's armpit, but phoenix is America's air fryer.

I’m really sorry to hear this. I will keep you & your family in my thoughts & prayers. May you all find strength & peace eventually in the coming days, weeks & years.

trending very unfavorably for central MI to get much of anything other than maybe a light glaze, and a couple inches of snow. sad

Thanks Josh. Damn! Still big ice totals. Im getting plastered in Alpena right now as it is. I got food,gas,propane and my two snowmobiles ready to go.

this is why, IMO, northern high plains is one of the best chasing regions in the country. sure the road networks are pretty sparse, but there's a fraction of the chasers as in the midwest/south plains, and the structure is insane.
