Participation medal. We are all winners!

so you didnt get anything yesterday??

Thanks! My boss just returned from there today. I know he was lamenting the damage that would be done to his wallet ha.

We didnt have a volcanic eruption this winter and look how it turned out. I think people are too fascinated on that aspect about a volcano helping or hurting the atmosphere.

57.5” on the season to date bud. I private messaged you last week with that number …but maybe it didn’t go through?

Wow! That is awesome data. Thanks for all of it. One other fun fact, in February, Disney World recorded their lowest monthly temp since the resort opened in 1971 with a low of 23 on the 1st.

melting snow on the sensors...

The Frontier Airlines of weather advisories. It’s not even a Bronze medal.

Low of 7 here in my part of the Poconos. While I wouldn't mind another late season or two snow event. I'm over this kind of cold. I still have a solid 7 to 8 inch deep snowpack in my area. Looking forward to rain washing all the salt residue away honestly.

It's like symbolically ( perhaps even philosophically ...) this event is a warm front passage. Look at these FOUS sounding numbers at Logan for Wednesday afternoon 36016989370 05106 251211 43000300 42059989570 05307 182808 45010300 48004903707 -4908 223211 39000200 54000861937 -3712 252705 44040401 60000811632 -0113 262213 46060501 Prior to dawn on Wednesday, that's like snowing where I am, freezing rain/IP in a band between Rt 2/Pike, and cold rain, all yielding to explosive temperature rises immediately after the sun comes up. Those thermal profiles nearing 0z Thursday suggests it was over 60F early in that afternoon over thoroughfares and parking lots. Probably not over snow packed fields .. buuut, there'll be residual moisture being baked by March sun at higher mixing temperature - that's going to have DPs probably in the 40s with Ts say 57. Likely the greatest melt day yet in this slowly unfurling spring.

Except for all those cancelled mega torches from this past met winter.

March 2 1913: A record low of 24 degrees below zero is set at the St. Cloud Regional Airport. For Monday, March 2, 2026 1846 - A great storm hit Virginia and the Carolinas. The storm caused half a million dollars damage, and in North Carolina drowned fifty families and a thousand cattle on Notts Island. (David Ludlum) 1927 - Raleigh, NC, was buried under 17.8 inches of snow in 24 hours, a record for that location. Nashville NC received 31 inches of snow. The average snow depth in the state of Carolina was fourteen inches. (The Weather Channel) 1975 - The governor's Tornado in Atlanta did considerable damage to the governor's mansion and surrounding areas resulting in three deaths and 56.5 million dollars damage. (The Weather Channel) 1985 - A massive winter storm struck the Northern Plains Region. The storm produced up to 33 inches of snow in northeastern South Dakota, at Summit and at Milbank, and also produced high winds which whipped the heavy snow into drifts twenty feet high. (Storm Data) 1987 - A storm in the northeastern U.S. produced heavy snow in Maine, with 16 inches reported at West Grand Lake and Guilford. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1988 - Thunderstorms produced severe weather in the south central U.S. A tornado at Baton Rouge LA injured two persons, and another tornado caused five million dollars damage at the airport in Lafayette LA. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1989 - Snow and high winds plagued the western U.S. Up to 16 inches of snow was reported south of Seattle WA, and more than two feet of snow blanketed the Sierra Nevada Range of California. Winds gusted to 89 mph at Hidden Peak UT, and reached 92 mph at Peavine CA. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data) 1990 - Mild weather continued across the northern tier of states. Highs of 52 degrees at Saint Johnsbury VT, 63 degrees at Olympia WA, and 64 degrees at Seattle WA were records for the date. (The National Weather Summary)

Curious about school decisions in CT. Looks like bad timing yet again as we don’t completely transition to rain until evening

Bradford hit 6 last night, Mt. Pocono 8. National high of 101 at Rio Grande Village, TX and low of -25 at Estcourt Station, ME. Met Winter at MDT came in cold (4.4 BN), dry (3.00" BN), and with typical snowfall (.9" AN). The last part may surprise some, as MDT recorded 23.8" of snow, whereas normal is 22.9". So basically, we did alright on the snowfall front considering the lack of precip. Some other random stats: Average wind speed/direction was 7.9mph/WNW (300 degrees to be precise); average sky cover was 65%; and, MDT observed 27 days with light snow falling, 6 with snow, 2 with heavy snow, 6 with sleet, and 11 with fog reducing visibility to <1/4 mile. Onward.

got it, i thought about that for a sec but nothing indicated sarcasm, over txt it can be hard to tell sometimes.

Its snowing in Deep Creek right now, hopefully the moisture makes it over the mountains.

@MUweather Due primarily to a frigid start, aggregate temps in February2026 ended up about 1.5°F below avg. at millersvilleu. For the 4th month in a row, liquid equivalent precipitation (LEP) was slightly below normal. The 3.8" of snow that fell was well below the monthly average of 8.8".

vroom sarcasm. It's alright. there's no vocal inflection in here

and why is getting model data later a good thing?

10's (some sd's) this morning. Pleasant wx with seasonably warm to warm conditions on tap. -Rn to -sn late week possible. Loving the longer days, and DST starts next weekend.

What's your seasonal total up to?

And central Park ignored all of the snow from 1 PM to 4 PM that day and stuck with 19.7. Typical and happens more often than not.

There have been a series of temperature jumps over the years which have resulted in changes to how the CONUS experiences their winters. We had a fairly stable global temperature regime from 1895 to 1982 with only a gentle increase in temperatures. This why the CONUS and our area haven’t had a top 10 coldest winter since then. Warming began to pick up in 1983 and gradually increased until 1996-1997. The first significant jump in 1997-1998 kicked off our all or nothing snowfall pattern with nearly all the sea seasons well below or well above average snowfall and average seasons largely missing. The all-time snowy winters patterns were able to continue up through 2014-2015 in Boston. The 2015-2016 even larger temperature jump shrank the Northern Hemisphere winter cold pool so we haven’t been able to challenge the all-time snowy seasons that we experienced during the 1993-1994 to 2014-2015 period when the global and CONUS temperatures didn’t change that much. That was the sweet spot that I was referring to when temperarures were in a colder range than today.

oh yeah ... clocks go ahead an hour this Sunday. Finally getting models in the middle of the night - thank god
