CAPE

Just awful.

Equilibrium Lupus Salictarius Batch 3 Triple IPA Outstanding.

Low overcast with some occasional light drizzle here in Rehoboth. Heading out for some drinks and foodies. Not bad for walking/staggering for now. Rain should hold off till later this evening.

Heavy showers just rolled though here. 0.42". 2.88" this week so far.

60-ish? If we weren't socked in with clouds and an east flow it would probably be 70 here.

We average above normal like 10 out of every 12 months, so what's so bad about being a tad below sometimes? Refreshing.

Outside of the 3 day anomalously cold period a week or so ago, temps have been pretty "normal". I have been doing plenty of outside work and there have been a lot of dry days with sun. Some wind, yes. We do wind here. Not a big fan but if it's sunny and dry its a good outside day to me. Again, you want May weather, and its too early.

Well, temps in the mid to upper 50s in early April is closer to average than mid 70s. You want May, I get it. We aren't there yet.

It's basically warm to hot and muggy from mid May into October now. Crazy to complain about partly sunny days in the 50s and 60s in April. Yeah the wind can be super annoying, but it's not a constant. Saturday through Monday look incredible IMO. Then it heats up for a few days, so those who want a summer preview will get what they want too.

The heavier, steady rain is finally moving out. 2.34"

An absolute soaker here overnight. Was expecting maybe an inch, but just over 2" has fallen and still raining hard. I think the 18z NAM had 2"+ here but then it backed off at 0z.

Lookin good for 70s/low 80s mid to late next week.

33 with a pretty sunrise

They behave pretty much the same way- hardly noticeable as they pass through but blow up offshore and bring us wind.

This was the 'period to watch'. Never forget. Too bad the long lead GFS always sucks, but at least it teases, even in April. It probably will another time or 2 for May. At least 2 people here will be posting about it.

Enjoy tomorrow, and maybe late Wednesday.

It was so nice and calm this morning- just a breeze. That innocent weak little clipper.. now a strengthening low offshore. Damn PGF.

No allergies here either. I get those pollen strings piling up all over the deck and walkway in Spring, and I just go hit it with the leaf blower. The worst I get is mildly itchy eyes for a few minutes.

For those looking forward to 70s- maybe 80- here ya go.

I have been outside digging holes for holly trees. 54 in the sun and I am in short sleeves and sweating a bit. Would not want it much warmer for doing outside work. With just a light breeze now it feels perfect. 75+ and humid will be dime a dozen soon enough. I prefer a gradual transition to our 6 month summer lol.

Dec D Jan A Feb C- Mar D December and March are weighted lowest, as one is basically Fall and the other Spring in the lowlands. January was pretty epic for here with over 19" of snow and generally cold, with snow otg for many days. February was pretty pathetic with very little snow. The late Jan snow was still otg with cold temps for the first couple days of the month- that was the highlight. In the end, snowfall for my yard was slightly above average, and the best pattern set up during the ideal month (combo of low sun angle and cold/snow climo) and delivered with 3 snowstorms and one snow/sleet to rain deal. It was disappointing that literally nothing else transpired after that great start, but so it goes with Ninas in the MA in a warming climate. Overall grade: B-

Mid to late week still looking wet with 2 systems affecting the region as a trough digs to our west and moves eastward towards the end of the week.

33 for the low here. Other than a few showers tonight, most of today and tomorrow look really nice for outdoor activities.
