Canadian is also a nice hit and Euro is a close miss. The next week of tracking should be fun. -

Have fun down there! Next Thursday is my birthday so I'll be hoping for some nice action, both with weather and my wife -

Low of 36 with a trace of rain overnight. My highs for today and tomorrow are now down to 52 and 44, quite the change. -

All the models show plenty of possibilities "rounding the bend" and that is good enough for me. As you've said, we'll have stuff to track. Whether any of it hits the LSV or not, only time will tell. -

I can't love this post enough. It's so cool that you have records going back that far and developed your love of weather early on with the help of your father. Great stuff. -

Low of 34. Looks like the rain is indeed cutting back on the forecasted highs for saturday, as I'm now down to 51. Maybe Friday will pop with a bit of early clearing. After starting this stretch of warmth ~4 degrees BN, MDT will end it ~4 degrees AN. Then things turn "interesting" again. -

Sure does. The airmass is in place to hit your 60 degree prediction but I wonder if there will be enough clouds and rain around to keep us just shy. Could be close. -

Debating with myself over here, as I see some Cocorahs peeps in Lancaster reported .01 or .02 inches of precip. I would say they fell for the heavy dew trap but then I see a few WU stations right near me reported .01-.02" around the 9-10pm timeframe last night, which would seem to nullify the dew theory. Is it possible I missed a little shower late last evening? Can any of my local friends chime in on whether we got rain or not? Got to keep those KMJS books accurate! -

Low of 37 and heavy fog in the valleys. A solid .015” in the gauge but not seeing any evidence it rained. While all surfaces are wet, it has that classic heavy fog/dew combo look, so not putting anything in the books. -

Low of 27. There is no greater joy in life than waking up to Blizz having posted GFS 240+ hour snow threats. Always brings a smile to my face haha. -

Low of 24. I ended December with 4.7" of snow and 2.04" of total precipitation. For the year, I recorded measurable precip on 135 days totaling 52.41", nearly 13" more than MDT's 39.69". MDT ended the year with a mean temp of 54.3, exactly equal to its climate normal period average. The Northeast has been dominating the national lows lately, with the latest iteration being won by Mt. Washington at -17. A spot in Maine hit -27 the prior night. Onward.
