we need the rain.

Doug Kammerer said Bethesda / Chevy Chase had some sleet - wondering if upper NW also got into that. We are in Richmond where it was cold but mostly dry (a few sprinkles but that's it).

never underestimate the warm nose

yeah seems like southern CT is well primed for this one, north shore of LI too in Suffolk.

lol yeah - that's not "just north of NYC". Just north of NYC is like just past Yonkers or something.

there have been worse busts - I remember we were forecast to get 24-36", Cantore set up shop, etc - and we got maybe 10" while eastern LI got like 3 feet.

i used to have some pretty epic battles in there lol.

at this point just need some form of precipitation - finishing the year missing about a quarter of the normal annual precip here.

it's approaching 50 here. similar phenomenon - it's in the upper 30s literally a few hundred yards away (and near the bottom of the hill we are on, which is kind of like a little valley).

we had a nice 2' snowstorm in the Shenandoah Valley that March.

strong UHI overnight - 26.6F here, 28F at DCA.

we have folks that cancel winter during the prior summer. That's routine 'round these parts lol.

sometimes he lets the desire to troll cloud his reasoning.

that's late for him tbh

yeah i'd say it's the last two weeks of Jan / first two weeks of Feb. There's always a delay at our latitude in both winter and summer in terms of peak "climo" and when the solstice happens. Our hottest weeks of the summer are generally mid July to early August.
