I wonder how much the early SSW/reversal played in this winter having a consistently favorable(ish) Pacific. This doesn't seem to be the normal La Nina here, where it's cool for a few weeks before we torch.
Legit can't wait for Saturday. I've got a shift at the farm outside. I will take extreme cold over heat any day of the week. Weather like this lets you know you're alive!
I'm excited to see what the Bittinger and Frostburg mesonet stations report this weekend. Bittinger hit a new network record low of -15° with this last cold wave. Maybe we break it?
