Must be an abnormal day

This post is aging like fine wine. Great forecast!

I'm still at home in Harford Co where it has only been rain imby. 38. Heavier precip on the way.. Heading to Columbia in a couple hours, so tragically missing the deathbanding there.

Driveway and street are trying to cave here as well

Where ya at?? You've been taking L after L lol. Say "uncle" hahahahaha!!!

Eyeballing an inch on the deck railing

Just measured a very unofficial 1.0" on the car. Obviously less on the grass. But looks like more than 0.5".

All right, WHO turned on the snow machine? And turned the DCA temperature down to 34?? Still melting in south Arlington, though.

These models are a shit show. How have we not gotten better at this?

Last pics as it has moved on. I went on a snike (snow hike) just a few miles from my workplace. Beautiful!!

33 and legit SN+ in Montclair. Possibly best rates of the winter

Has to be close to a world record

Yeah. as you suggested fringe folks dont have the rates for flippage. I expected nothing as I shared yesterday, but some mood flakes always make me smile...no matter when I see em. Save a snowball for me down on Turk hill

About 50F drop from this time yesterday!

We really did get lucky here this winter and fortunately we were able to cash in. While I didn't write up an official outlook, I did make several posts that I was fearful of anomalous above average temps across the U.S. based on how the state of the PAC was right through fall and into early winter. But I think you could argue too (and I'm sure Ray will address this in his post analysis) that the state, obviously combined with the early on SSW really helped to save us from those anomalies stretching east.

In Oakton.

Meh... not really. Factually, that product covers the 99 years between 1901 and 2000, only. Factually, the compendium of science in climate change is based upon Math, Physics, and Chemistry, beginning ~ the late Proterozoic geologic eon, which covers the last 480+ million years. Relative to that range, there are changes now that exceed the change rates that have occurred at any time during the last half billion years. However, if the 2nd paragraph is true - which it is cannot be controverted with any veracious objectivity, than the first paragraph has confidence as to its significance. Understanding and knowing that is purely a function of whether the person is smart enough or not. It's far in a way more likely that the planetary system is lagging behind the change being forced within it, too fast. In other words, it is still responding. Doing so in 2023 like surges is troubling to put it nicely. The next surge in wholesale planetary temperature ( ie. 2023) may not be a single degree. NO one saw the first surge... ALL opinions on the next are meaningless, until the former lag, and the latter surge, have been explained by Math, Physics, and Chemistry. The data recency discussion is apples and oranges to ^. Conflating concepts and utility.

March sun having near zero effects

Some sleet mixing in with the rain in Swarthmore. Still mostly rain, though.

Pretty much all snow here now! Fat flakes parachuting down as well

Had switched back to mostly rain , now some flakes mixing in

Sigh wishing it had done this last month instead of now

Just insane 3/11 1pm ob-72F headed to high of 83 3/12. 1pm ob-35F moderate to heavy snow . All areas covered and near 0.5” in full shade spots can’t remember another one like this
