As expected no warm sector here but 37/36 for 12 hours does a lot of damage. Overnight dews just a little above freezing with duration is a pack eater. Snow only remains in the piles and the heavily shaded areas.
Any areas still hanging on are eliminated Sunday into Monday with another furnace.
Friday is pretty cool to monitor in the sense that it is the persistence scenario but with the jet a few hundred miles further north due to the seasonal tide, it’s not even close to a wintry event for most.
GFS for Friday continues to be way too cold vs everything including the GEFS.
I’m expecting a decent day with warm sector out ahead. Widespread, highs near 50.
I do wonder though, how much of a positive offset —this time of year— is the absence of tree foliage, from our latitude to all points upwind in the northern mid Atlantic.
Of course. Easy to say. Staying up here is a terrible bet. Not sustainable.
That said, I think mid level troughiness on EPS and GEFS at that window is more bark than bite.
Looks like a move from ++AN to AN to N (behind fronts).
We did not have a stretch of significant warmth like this in March through early April that I can recall.
1-2 days sure, but not a 3 + day torch with continued AN after.
Really nice.
Local tree company agrees. Called to verify schedule cutting down a tree growing too close to my garage foundation on Tuesday….
Looking at guidance today, seeing I do have a chance to get some sun. Would be a big win after this shit stretch, especially on a Saturday…
Expectations low given the climo fuckery…I’ll call it a win if I can eke out mostly cloudy by 2 pm.
It’s incredible how many times the more densely populated areas in the coastal plain narrowly dodge this bullet. It’s like at least a few times a season.
We’re gonna get nailed one of these years very soon.
