Itstrainingtime

As of noon on 4/8, snow pile along the river in Columbia is down to approximately 8" or so. This is the remnants from the January storm. In the weeks that followed it was piled over 20' high. That is the only snow that I know of in my general driving area. LCBC Church in Manheim used to have enormous piles years ago but I haven't been by there in a long time. Gotta give a shoutout to Camelback Ski Resort in Tannersville. Not only are they still open, they actually made snow last night! They've already announced that they're extending their ski season into May this year. Should be interesting next week with the onset of VERY warm weather. Here's a look - the base looks really good for this time of year: https://www.camelbackresort.com/resort-information/live-cameras

Frosty low of 26 this morning. Looks like you'll be enjoying a lot of relatively dry weather here at home while I deal with the onset of the rainy season in the Caribbean.

If you want hot weather in April, well then, here you go - MU Weather Center REAL spring is about to arrive.. and in a big way.. across the eastern U.S. next week. I might be on "90 watch" next Tues and/or Wed!

I'm heading to the Virgin Islands for 11 days starting on Thursday. Perfect timing, I need a break from here.

But that's just not always true - just go back to last week. On Thursday afternoon temps in eastern PA were mostly in the 40s. 24 hours later we were in the low 70s. At least at my house, it was 25 degrees warmer on Friday PM than it was Thursday PM.

Finished with .60" of welcomed rainfall. I hope everyone is enjoying your Easter Sunday.

I'm still waiting for all of the snow you said was coming back in early March.

Quite a few 90s in the greater DC area.

Sad fact - most Memorial Days aren't this warm.

78 at noon. Dang

Alaska has had a lot of un-Alaska like winters lately.

At precisely 5:05pm yesterday, the temperature in Fairbanks, Alaska reached 33 degrees. This marked the first time the temp climbed above freezing since October 31st, 2025. 153 consecutive days below freezing. You needed to know this.

Couldn't disagree more. We just had a couple of very warm days and the next 2 days will be WAY above normal with potentially record heat on Saturday. March ended well above normal. Sorry.

That first batch lasted all of 4-5 minutes if that. When it started, my wife looked at me and said "what is THAT"? I knew, opened the front door and she said "wow!" Here's your disparity in a single picture:

Picked up .54" of much needed rainfall last night. Super pleased. Breezy and 47 currently.
