I'm up to 49 now and slowly going up. I think I'm probably around 15 miles south of you. -

The fog has lifted and the sun just popped out here, with the sky clearing rapidly and temp going up. I think the warm front is finally on the move. Currently mostly sunny and 48 with dp 44. -

Forecast was for the front to finally pop up and off the mountains by the early afternoon. Currently still in the 30s/40s in the CWA. -

Wow, I think maybe the warm front is on the move and although the temp here hasn't gone up yet, the fog has rolled in like mad from the north. Vis down to about 1/10th of a mile. I ended up with a high of 44 and 0.02" of precip yesterday despite all the stuff that blew overhead. Currently a damp and foggy 40 after a low of 39 and with dp 40. -

Currently getting very light rain and drizzle here (not enough to be measurable yet) but no pingers. Temp currently 43 with dp 30. But you won't have to use it until the March/April frosts and freezes that will be just in time for when my blueberries are blooming, guaranteeing a perfect kill!!! -

It had cleared enough here oveernight and early this morning to drop me down to 31 for a low just before 5:30 am. It started out partly sunny earlier but has clouded up much of the rest of the morning. Currently overcast and 42 with dp 30. -

You appear to possibly be in the NWS "survey area" for the suspected tornado! Map from the NWS tweet - -

Survey teams for the possible tornado in Jersey will be out tomorrow - Meanwhile, I ended up with a couple hundredths of an inch on top of the morning rain and have 0.19" rain so far today. Current temp is down to 43 with dp 37. -

TOR expiring soon although it may have already been dropped. Just popped outside and there is some weird mixing winds with the cool air being felt and a bit of a dp drop. Currently 55 with dp 39. -

Had 0.17" rain with round 1 this morning and have been watching as stuff has passed overhead but no precip. yet. The lightning detector did pick up some strikes so the convection is definitely out there and I saw STS up over in Jersey. After a 40 low, currently changeable skies (with some storm clouds looking west) and 57 with dp 42. -

Have been progressively warming up since the weekend after a Sat. 26 low/41 high and a Sun. 31 low and 52 high. Today's low was 43 and I got up to a comfortable 62 for a high. Have had an unsettled day with clouds and sun. Was expecting it to rain earlier and it was delayed but not denied, with some non-measurable at post time (walk is wet). Currently damp and 55 with dp 40. -

Rather obvious fropa. Ended up with a misty shower with it for another 0.01" for 0.55" for today (at least so far). Temp has settled at 48 after shooting up to 60. Dp is 45. -

I made it up to 67 for a high after a 48 low. Ended up getting 0.21" of rain with this round 1 (it didn't start until sometime just before 2 pm. It's currently mostly cloudy and 53 with dp 53. -

Yup. It definitely caught my attention and I believe it is associated with some atmospheric turbulence. Based on the timing of it, I *think* that may have happened when a warm front was wobbling in the area and there was some mixing going on up high. I had a screenshot of what the temp/humidity did right around then and both suddenly did a hiccup and stabilized. -

I had texted one of my sisters yesterday about seeing some early forsythia blooming in my neighborhood and how I had a work trip about 20 years ago to San Francisco in February - left Philly in snow boots with the remnants of 8" of snow on the ground and got there to find temps in the 60s during the day and 40s at night (only needed a sweater). They had tulips blooming at their annual "Tulipmania" Festival at Pier 39 (didn't even know that was a "thing") and this was near the end of February (apparently considered a bit "early" back then but now they have pushed the festival earlier and earlier over the years since). This was an article from the year that I was there - https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Tulips-spring-to-life-early-this-year-Pier-39-s-2631698.php I know that England also gets those early bulb blooms as a matter of course for their Gulf Stream climate. Am currently mostly cloudy about a half hour before sunrise and am at my low of 49 at the moment with dp 42. The winds have gone calm so may drop a few more degrees. -

I had some stratus earlier and then some funky Monet-like impressionist clouds that are apparently called asperitas (a new cloud designation as of 2009) - https://www.theguardian.com/environment/gallery/2009/jun/01/2?picture=348217732 This type (above is an example) were off to the west some time this morning around 9:45ish am. -

After a low of 41 this morning I made it up to 65. Expecting a similar high tomorrow too. It was unsettled today though with threatening stratus clouds coming and going much of the day. -

After a 39 low this morning I made it up to 57 for a high. Ended up getting 0.17" of rain yesterday which was the first measurable recorded for the month so far (other times there was enough to wet the walks but not tip the bucket). Currently 48 with a dryish dp of 21 (I saw SPSs up for the N/W burbs for fire potential weather issues). And 18z GFS - end of month frozen from what looks like a fropa. Lock and load. -

My "low" for yesterday ended up being 43 just before midnight last night and the low today (so far) was 36 about an hour ago. Currently mostly sunny and 38 with dp down to 21 (thanks to that earlier CFP). -

My non-diurnal "high" was 60 just after 2 am and I'm currently at my "low "with it mostly sunny and 50 with dp 35 (I expect the temp will drop further overnight to revise the low for the day). I did have some kind of non-measurable precip the past couple days that wet the walks but didn't tip the bucket.
