winterwx21

Just a run of the mill t-storm going on here right now, but it's nice to see.

Next week continues to look very warm. High temps well into the 70s tuesday through thursday, and wouldn't be surprised to see 80 degrees as you said.

It's boring when we don't get many t-storms during the summer. Also annoying when we don't get enough rain for the gardens. Last summer was horrendous with the drought ... hopefully that won't happen again.

High temp of 65 here today. I planted broccoli plants this afternoon. Beautiful out there today.

Had a high temp of 65 here today. Perfect Spring weather. I planted some seeds today .... peas and radishes. Felt great to start the garden in the spectacular weather.

So often chilly weather hangs on in late March, so I'm glad it appears that won't be the case this year. After the brief cooldown this weekend, it looks as if we're gonna see a pretty long period of near 60 degree weather starting tuesday next week. That's great timing for starting the garden with the cool season vegetables.

High temp of 61 here today.

Beautiful afternoon. 59 degrees here right now. Hopefully we'll have plenty of days like this over the next few weeks.

After the cool shot for sunday (highs in the low 40s) the weather pattern for late March looks pretty good. No major warmth coming, but lots of days with high temps well up in the 50s. Not bad for late March. Looks as if next week will be a good time to start Spring planting. Looking forward to it.

I just got back from the grocery store, and yeah it has been snowing moderate to heavy. Still a tremendous struggle for it to accumulate though. Just a very light coating on the grass in some areas, while other grassy areas remain bare. This March sun angle has been a killer. This would have been a nice few inches if it happened at night. It is accumulating on the trees and bushes a little better though. At least it's a nice scene with the trees coated.

Yeah I know some snow lovers might be happy just to see snow coming down, but for me all this white rain is just irritating. A real waste. We would've gotten a few inches if this happened at night. Instead white rain. Best case we get a little coating on colder surfaces if it keeps snowing at this rate later in the afternoon.

33 here but even that's not good enough with moderate to heavy snow coming down. I knew any model run showing an inch of snow for this area would be wrong because it's not accounting for the mid March sun angle. This borderline situation would have worked at night for a couple inches here. Or during the daytime a bomb of a storm in the perfect spot like a couple of those NAM runs showed the other day. That would have worked for a lot more, lol.

Yep even with a temp of 33 and moderate to heavy snow, it can't accumulate even on colder surfaces here. March sun angle is killing us. Too bad this didn't happen at night as you said.

Heavy snow here. Huge flakes, but it's not accumulating at all even on colder surfaces. White rain as expected. We really needed this to happen at night for our area with the borderline temps. Glad folks to the northwest are getting to see accumulation though.

I'm so sorry for your loss and the tough time you're going through, Chris. I wish you good luck in finding a room. I wish I had one available.

This is how I feel now. We're now down to a Hail Mary for this winter. It's not impossible, but snow events in late March and early April for our area are highly anomalous. So I'm not tracking anymore unless we have a legitimate threat that's only a few days away. I hope it warms up in time for Spring planting during the last week of March. Looking forward to getting out there and planting lettuce, broccoli and peas. Hopefully we'll have 60 degree weather during the last week of the month, but I know chilly weather often stubbornly hangs on during early Spring.

UKMET just caved too. It now has nothing tuesday. Looks likely that this is over except for well to the northwest. Doesn't feel as if there's a need to stay up to look at Euro. It would be pretty irritating to stay up for Euro anyway now that it's so late due to the clock change.

I enjoyed the few inches that we got (we had a 2" event and 1.5" event here) even though they melted very quickly. They were pretty scenes with everything coated with the wet snow. Better than seeing no snow at all for the entire winter, but obviously it was still a horrendous winter for snow lovers.

At least we finally got a couple light events near the end of the winter. 4 inches of snow is better than nothing. lol

It looks as if we could hit 60 degrees on friday, so I'm sure that's what he's talking about.

Euro just has some light snow on the backside tuesday afternoon, which would be white rain. Terrible run but not a surprise. We know the NAM is a horrendous model that loves to tease us with crazy solutions.

Not quite as good as last night. It cut back on snow amounts quite a bit. But it's still decent.

Since the RGEM is so warm, it's not surprising that the CMC is warm too. The 12z run gives us a lot of rain/snow mix tuesday, which obviously wouldn't cut it. It'll be interesting to see what UKMET and EURO show in a little while.

GFS still not impressed. It gives only a small amount of snow on the backside which would probably be white rain.

Euro wasn't anything like the NAM though. Even after the changeover it showed a lot of mixing, which is why it showed a small amount of snow for NYC compared to the amount it showed to the north and west. Definitely a big storm to the north and west though. It'll be interesting to see what it shows this afternoon. Hopefully a better scenario for the NYC area.
