Scarlet Pimpernel

Not sure if you changed it once already, but yeah, there's some ridiculous amount of time to then change it yet again on one's own I believe (it's possible to do it once, basically, on your own). So I'm guessing that you had changed it sometime awhile back, thus got the "30,000 day" denial or something like that when you tried again more recently. I'm sure perhaps a mod would be able to go in there and change something to let you do it again. ETA: I'm tempted to suggest that you change your name to "The User formerly known as Prince[FredericWx]"!!

Just you wait until we see a tropical system near the Bay in late July that drops 24"+ snow on us for a cycle or two!!!

And thank you for keeping the faith, for the fun PBP (guys, folks...jaws!!) and commentary, and of course for being a Beethoven music lover! Until next winter then!

March 32nd snow is the best!!!

Dammit, you made me look!

The anti-FOLKS!!!

Et tu, Yoda? Say it ain't so!

LOL, by then you may be in the bullseye there! You can find an Irish Pub in Charlotte to toast the St. Pat's Day storm!!

Interesting. Looks like most of the cold was on the other side of the hemisphere, as well as that strip of colder across northern Canada and AK. I would imagine given that distribution, a huge and persistent ridge over the eastern half to 2/3 of North America and another over much of Europe/Scandinavia (though not as warm there). It's kind of reminiscent of how warm December 2015 was here (similar warm departure). I'm just grateful we got those large departures in December and March, and not a +9 in July!!!

Well, I recall March 2012 was insanely warm (+9 departure at DCA for the month), DCA hit 80+ degrees four times. Only two nighttime lows at or below freezing, the rest were well above. The cherry blossoms were essentially finished blooming by St. Patrick's Day since they came out very early. I believe that was an extremely warm month for much of the eastern third of the country. (ETA: In fact, I remember seeing that some location in upper Michigan had a low temperature one day that was a few degrees warmer than the previous record HIGH for that particular date; it also of course broke a new record high).

You mean it isn't already?! But seriously, yeah, we've got through mid-March typically and some years even longer. Wouldn't be surprised if we get even something small before it's over.
