We're done dude, hasn't snowed the whole month. More rain Thursday night and next week could turn wet. Might as well get our water supply built up and the reservoirs full now. Hopefully by May we turn full spring mode. April is always a toss up.

2.7" for me with that one, don't recall how @snywxdid with that one.

It’s great to see these additional METAR sites coming online, especially for areas like Belmont, Forsyth, and Jamestown. The link shared gives a clear list of all seven new sites along with coordinates, which is helpful for pilots and weather enthusiasts tracking local conditions. This expansion really improves coverage across the U.S.

seasonal slowdown as all the winter guys go into hibernation

Yikes 11 hours since a response in this forum, 12pm on weekday. Tenn valley is the only forum that has a longer posting drought. They are saying I'll get up to 74 degrees tomorrow. Not bad for March, huh?

Leave that until mid April

Bro i love snow but its almost April..... lets get the warmer weather here!!!!

Shocked how quiet it’s been for the Northern IN and OH folks concerning tomorrow. It looks like a pretty solid threat overall at this time

Wow, somewhat good news. How far away from where it was stolen was it found? Sent from my SM-S921U using Tapatalk

@WinterWolf @dryslot @Lava Rock Quick update on my sled saga. As I mentioned before, the RCMP found one but the other one never turned up. I went up the weekend of the 14th to pick up the recovered after the insurance company declared the other one a total loss. State Farm reimbursed me for the gas, hotel and storage fees related to me having to go up and get it. The money hit my account within a matter of hours after I submitted receipts. This past Saturday, I took the recovered sled to a Ski Doo dealer to have them go through it. The estimate to replace the front bumper, belly pan and the stolen LinQ gas caddy and tunnel bag is $1,361. The parts will be in this week so that should be done next week. Now I just wait for the settlement for the second sled.

Cory, is that you?

Yup. Had a 0.3" flurry on the 2nd and 2" paste on the 3rd.

One thing about using RONI vs. ONI is you have to be consistent. If you’re going to use RONI to say that the Nino isn’t going to be as strong, you also need to say that 24-25 and 25-26 were weak to moderate Nina’s, not neutral.

suspect action will be south/east of ord but airports are a cluster fuck right now for many reasons, good luck!

23-24 reached super criteria based off of traditional ONI, which peaked at +2.1C for NDJ. Using the new RONI however, it peaked at moderate to strong.

Had it been colder-all locations would have had another 2-4 inches-Sunday daytime was rain/white rain for most areas

Many climate alarmist like to point to the Time of Observation Bias (TOB) as solid "scientific adjustments" required to correct that bias. NOAA/NCEI in fact chose to chill every year at Coatesville from 1895 thru 1982. However, if anything when we look at the facts of when these observations were taken (see the below of COOP observation time/years) we see that with the exception of 11 years.... temperatures were in reality recorded in the morning. So if their rationale is correct the bias for Coatesville should in fact be too cool with all of those AM minimum temperature reports. Yet they chose to not warm those years - they actually made additional chilling adjustments.

Climate realist board....

Yeah I've been keenly on this every day for the past month as we're globally getting set sail into this next ultimately unknown +ENSO. The warm/NINO phase is all but certain, but ...the amplitude and so forth, tbd. The last time we were in switch from a NINA to NINO, there was a global temperature surge, air and sea, like never before observed since humanity picked first up the first burning stick, wondered, and ultimately doomed their fate ( whole 'nother dystopian story). It's not clear that the NINA/NINO switch was causal in the global multi-metric temperature surge in 2023; it in fact preceded the on set of the NINO. However, intuitively ...having a warm tropical anomaly concurrent certainly is not helping to offset a warming world, incrementally. This is concerning, this hot water curve above. +.58C as of that last tick ( to be verified but seldom do these not - ) is a mere .1 < than the 2024 historic max, which took place there nearing the end of April. This sets off a chain of reasoning for me... Most of those curves, in fact all of them at a glance with the exception of last year ... were already beginning to fall by now, the Ides of March. Last year, however, was the first in which that was not the case. The SSTs gained yet for another month - doing so during a NINA, no less?! The Earth had for the first time in decades, gained when the climatology inference clearly argued(s) it should have been falling. I don't believe that it trivial, albeit easily overlooked. More on that in the bottom paragraph. When looking at the recent month(s) of this year, and combining with those aspect... there's no sense there that this curve isn't going to set a new record. We are preset at an elevated state, with yet an impending warm phase of the ENSO ...? Just beginning to register, and we only have .1 to spare. It's my opinion that we are not done with the 2023 burst. I sense that was a first step during what could turn into a much more important total geological threshold/move. Last years odd global SST gains is an insidious way of signaling we are still in burst-prone' state ... Possible the same burst, but to our perception moving too slowly to notice. "Burst" in geologic time is misleading. It is going to be difficult to see to a sentience ( us ) whose perception of time moves too swiftly?

I see what you're saying.. for some reason I thought Nino was more +PDO-like, with a ridge overtop the N. pacific trough. I think in the 1895-1950 dataset they are a little more neutral or negative EPO/WPO

Winter 23-24 did act like a Super Nino in terms of precip. although November was dry

The PDO is a 50/50 index, half warm vs half cold or visa-versa.

Those storms you listed didn’t add up to 37.2”(18.5”,11.2”, and 5.2”)=34.9”. So I’m assuming you had a couple small snows in there too?
