CAPE

0.58" Most moisture here since the snow melted into the soil.

Exactly a half inch here too, and still a steady light to moderate rain falling. Should end in the next hour. Much needed.

Long season, but the Orioles completely suck right now.

Same here on all 3- saw a big black snake slithering across the grass near the firepit. Looked like around 6 ft.

82/65 This would be a nice day in late July. In early April, no thanks. Wasp fest happening out there. Looking forward to the Tuesday night freeze.

Our summers are basically now 7 months- AMJJASO.. and sometimes into N. We are kind of the inversion of a hyper-continental climate, where Spring and Fall are brief to almost non existent, but instead of long cold winters we get seemingly never-ending summer.

Yeah if it makes it into the 70s here today its probably going to be towards the end of the day and brief.

46 now with the heat on. Low 80s yesterday with AC on. AC might be back on tomorrow lol. BDCFs are a thing this time of year with HP to the NE. Looking forward to next week, which looks Fall-like with low temps around freezing possible a couple nights. I will be in Rehoboth mid next week. Forecast is sunny with temps in the 50s. Perfect.

Its so far out, but it is a pretty good look at this juncture(and it will obv adjust with time)

Looks like a basin wide Nino

Bring the 50s with lows in 30s next week and fair weather. Early Spring should feel more like Fall. Too soon for 80s.

Looks chilly mid-late next week. Temps near/below freezing Thursday AM?

83

Drinking a voddy tonic, watching the Orioles(lose) and waiting to watch this. I'll take 2 songs for free, Live.

Needed rain. Been dry AF here.

Warm is gonna win in this pattern, other than any rainy periods. Upper 70s- low 80s. Too warm too early for my liking. Why cant we just do 'normal' in early Spring sometimes lol. Right to late May/Early June weather. Fuck that shit.

Low of 26 with frost. It will probably be 8 months until we are this cold again.

Climo snowfall varies quite a bit across our region as you know. 20 inches here is a pretty good winter, but not so much for places N&W. That said we probably all should have more "reasonable" (lower) climo standards for what qualifies as a good winter.

0.15" Been pretty dry here latley.

A Cape winter story. It was a pretty impressive winter. First snow in early Dec The glacier storm a week after it fell Tuckahoe in early Feb Late Feb storm The late day March snow after a morning high of 70

Cant argue. Last winter was a good one with 2 6"+ snowstorms(both all snow) and had snow otg for 2 weeks or so in Jan. I was just above climo here. Our area has a had a pretty nice run overall since the 2016 Nino. A couple lean winters plus the ratter mixed in.

It snowed in D,J,F,M. Brutal cold period after the glacier. 3 weeks with snow/ice cover- that period ending up bone dry was the one nitpick. The Feb storm topped it off with 10". Over climo with 22.7"- and my measurements are usually low because I typically measure what's otg as I am often not home during the whole storm. (There was a report from an EM in Greensboro of 14" in the Feb storm). Anyway.. A- Had there been even a modest 2-4" snow event on top the Glacier I probably would have gone with a perfect score.

This winter was impressively cold overall, but some/much of that cold was wasted. Some areas did well with frozen precip opportunities wrt climo, others not so much. Time to grade it.

Some are likely shopping for a new computer, printer, TV, etc today. Happened to my parents last summer with an explosive nearby strike. Unplugging is a good idea when prolific lightning is expected as it removes the physical path for electromagnetic surges.

Or high humidity lol
