HIPPYVALLEY

I’m 37/33 with clear skies. Wondering if I can actually freeze up a little bit tonight?

High of 68° today but back down to 49° with the clouds. Because even on the sunniest days, somehow the clouds find the upper Valley. The DP‘s are going to take their toll so I’m guessing I’ll be down too 50% snow pack by Thursday. Probably about 90% right now.

My neighborhood is where spring goes to die.

@tunafish approves of this reference. Soak it in because we’re not gonna see this again for weeks. I need to get out of work early and go in the woods.

Yet another March with below normal snowfall. At least last week got me a bit above my seasonal average. If the rest of March is a shut out, it’s going to be hard to give this winter more than a B grade here.

Enjoy today, rest of the month looks fairly miserable.

Low of 26°.

That bottom pic looks like he/she wants to pluck your eye out. It's amazing how many eagles are in the valley now. I see probably one a month but rarely as close as that.

Scooter says we have to wait until December 2027 for our next real winter threat.

Will this be the warmest week until Memorial Day?

Amazing that we’ll be able to melt out without experiencing any flooding anywhere. That’s the way to do it.

Big temperature differences from the valley to the hills.

Yeah got down to 25° here a little while ago while some of the hill towns near me were upper 30’s.

Oil will be $120 by Friday. Winning. Looks like we will cool to BN for a bit before real spring takes over.

Already down to 37° off of a high of 53°. Radiators are goin’ to radiate.
