Hopefully we get some good rains Friday-Saturday because it looks exceptionally SE-ridgy/dry beyond the weekend and it truly hasn’t rained much here lately. Western areas and South Carolina a different story
Not to mention everything is lemon yellow from the pollen

80. Pollen like fog. The Pollening has begun.

Only made it to 60 today but 60 in mid March sure feels nice. Strong sun, late sunsets, birds going nuts.
spring is here. Let’s enjoy this magnificent weather week!

RDU never gets below 40 on the 6z GFS through 384
-
Still somewhat skeptical we get another hard freeze this year Raleigh eastward

It’s actually incredible we’ve gotten this dumb cooldown every spring 5 years running. I remember when we used to commit to spring and do it right.
-
I think that everyone is just past the point of rooting for snow — particularly in spring, when cold is not a positive.
Note: end of OP GFS features another west coast trough mid-late month

Pretty big temp bust today. Only made it to 66 on forecast highs of 74/75

Model consensus is suggesting a short chilly period in one week and a potentially colder period in about two weeks (near/just after St. Patrick’s Day).
At which point a lot of this forum will average 65+ degrees

I have no more words for the disaster of a winter this was. Today was a 10/10 weather wise though. Hopefully we keep a mild spring well into May and turkey hunting and fishing is pleasant. I plan to bring my daughter along to the turkey blind for the first time this year so I hope we get some weekend days just like today!
If we can just get to April 15, we’ve beaten it. 10 degree cold anomalies are then just 65 degrees.

I was just thinking about the great lakes ice this morning. Am I wrong in thinking that 15-20 years ago it was normal for most of the lakes to be completely covered in ice? I feel like they used to talk about lake effect snow "until the lakes froze." But haven't heard of talk like that in a while. But maybe I'm remembering incorrectly.?
They average 55% ice coverage. In 2014, they achieved 94% coverage and it was a big story.

We thought the same thing in December ‘93 after not seeing snow since the 80s.

I have zero doubt in my mind that this will finally be the moment cold air moves from the long range to the medium and short range. Expect that pattern to persist through June. It does every single year.
It does make for a comfortable May though

Like clockwork. Blocking that is good for nothing. It can never just be 65 and sunny like it’s supposed to be.

It doesn’t seem to be that far ahead here compared to normal. That being said, the last few Februarys have been so warm that maybe it’s skewing what normal is… Blooms on most flowering trees but nothing popped yet

looks like we’re about 10 days ahead of normal

God bless you GaWx, it’ll be 80 in Atlanta on March 7th but you’ll still have hope for snow.

The end of the GFS wants to dump a lot of arctic air down onto the east coast.
It realized its mistake and corrected at 0z

The cherry trees are blooming, maples with big buds, and pear trees should bloom this week or next.

Yeah at this point Raleigh has the climate of far southern Georgia so who knows.
It’s funny, when I was in DC in 2008, the phrase was DC now has the climate of Raleigh. Then 2009/10 happened.

It cannot be understated how bad this hurricane season could be with the base state of the Atlantic and La Niña forecast to come back.
Well our Nino just acted like a Nina, so not sure we can plan for anything in that regard.
