Itstrainingtime

25 this morning in Maytown. I'll tell you what though...it doesn't take long after the sun's up for it to start feeling pretty good outside at this time of the year. 39 right now and just completed a warm walk across campus here at work.

12z models generally painting between 1.0 - 2.5" of rainfall later this week for most of the Susquehanna river basin.

38.88". This was an obvious ploy of yours to once again gloat over your victory!

Until this past weekend you were running a decent amount ahead of me for 2025, but now I'm at 7.49".

I got very lucky - there was one wave that brought most in our forum a few tenths of an inch while I somehow got over 1". I'm ducking out early today to go home and try and mow the swamp.

Wait...did someone say it was a jacket morning? Oh yes - Canderson did say "most".

31 was my low and I tacked on .05" since midnight. 1.57" over the weekend into early this morning, a whopping 2.88" since last Sunday. Biggest difference between the two of us occurred with the late week event when you reported .41" while I managed to receive 1.03". What will the late week bring us this week? This was bumped up about .5" since yesterday morning:

Careful what you wish for. Seriously...thank you. It truly is good to be back.

Yes indeed! I have become a spoiled brat when it comes to home comfort. I can and am frugal in a lot of areas in life which allows me to pamper myself with my year-round 65 degree comfort.

39 at noontime on April 7th is actually pretty impressive.

More beneficial water this week: I ended up with double of last week's projections. (though many of you had far less than I did)

I mean...I get it if you haven't turned it on when it reaches the 60s, but it was in the 80s a week or two ago. I can't fathom not having AC on at that point.

Thank you very much!

Every day like today is one less hot day to worry about. Thank you. I appreciate it.

Also - it's good to be back. Shoot, this is 2nd family to me on here. I missed the daily banter. Learned a few (hard) things but I'm back better for it.

40 and just misty this morning in Maytown. An additional .33" of rain fell overnight. A lot of rain across MD and VA but it looks like the southern tier will pick up a little bit more shortly. Best week of rainfall just concluded in many months - I need to add up the totals but I received approximately 2.5" of rainfall since last Sunday.

I guess anything is possible. Who am I kidding...no way.

Bad assumption.

My noon temp was 50, it's up to 53 now. Also - I received 1.03" of rain last night. That was my first storm with 1" or more of rain since the first week of August...

I am the reason that Bubbler is no longer posting. He has not been active in our thread since my "Day In The Life" post. I did reach out and sincerely apologize but it was not acknowledged. It has been difficult for me to accept as I pride myself on building relationships and yet I destroyed one on here. I do hope he returns, I also told him that I would leave so that he could feel comfortable returning. Based on the comments from many in here, I do think it's the right decision for me to step aside. I am so very sorry to each and every one of you - that one post that I made changed everything in this thread. I feel terrible for what I did.

Should be an interesting time period to watch - MU has highs in the 70s to low 80s during this general time frame.

MU reached 84 today. My high was 82.

80 at noon here. 81 at MU.

It was all about the night time low temps. For all of my life I have always been colder than MDT for low temps. The only exceptions are special situations involving a cold front that came through MDT but not through my area yet OR a winter storm situation where warm air invades my area quicker off the ocean. Outside of that, I'm going to be a few degrees colder than MDT 95% of the time. For whatever reason, this winter MDT was running consistently about 3-5 degrees colder than down here almost every night. No idea what changed, but that's where the difference happened. My original point was much more specific to snowfall because you were calling a bust for Elliott prematurely and it came back to get you.

Final winter stats for Lanco (MU) vs Elliott's Winter Forecast: Total snowfall: 16.5" (prediction was 10-20") Snowfall for this past winter was LESS than last winter's 18.0") Temps: Dec: 1.6 AN, Jan: 2.2 BN, Feb: 1.9 AN (prediction was 2+ degrees AN for the season) MU forecast 3 weeks of extreme winter from approximately 12/20 through 1/10. We had just about 3 weeks of extreme winter though it came about 2 weeks later than he predicted on 11/1. Overall: Perfect snow forecast, he went too cold for the season overall mainly due to January being even colder than he saw but he had the spirit of length of time correct. @Blizzard of 93 you were sort of mocking his forecast as a major bust back in January in regards to snowfall but he ended up nailing it.
