Imagine if that were snow
-
Up to Kp 5 tonight on what I think is the anniversary of that pretty good March 2015 solar storm. Nothing on the Sebec starcam and bright moon for the rest of the night means it's probably a snoozer.
-
Another excellent call by yours truly. It's a wonder I'm not the president of the AMS or something.
-
Yeah, nice spring day for sure. Touched 59F but clouds started thickening up before we could manage 60 in my hood. Looks like POU did it anyway. I took the convertible for first topless spin of the year. Roads are still pretty grody though so I think I may have jumped the gun... salt and sand spray on designo leather ftl.

Ants, moths, and ticks are back in full force.

Yeah, we'll get one lukewarm day on Friday and then back to seasonably chilly. I'm certainly not complaining about a gradual progression into spring. It's a bit interesting that we're now into top 30 longest runs without hitting 70 degrees at POU. If the 18z GFS verified and we got there for the first time on March 28, that would be good for 15th place at 168 days. Average first 70F day is March 30, so even though it's the 384 hour GFS, it's a good a guess as any.

Today was a sorry excuse for Morch.

Ice on my pond is still holding tough with almost complete coverage. Meanwhile some of the bigger lakes are wide open, and I saw a dude fishing (probably merely casting and fully resigned to that fact) yesterday from the shore. There really is no rhyme or reason for it as far as I can tell.
-
Mostly sleet here as well, 0.8" of it. Yuck.
-
Looks like IP to RN to me
-
Nice, looks like deep winter there.
-
Pretty much full-on mud season around here in any place that gets even a moment of direct sunlight. Still some snow if you go deep enough into the woods. At sunny and 45F today, even the most secluded walking/hiking spots were crowded... always funny on days like today when you pass one person on the trail in full winter gear – scarf, down jacket, gloves – and the next in shorts and a tee.

Agreed, I've been really surprised by the lack of ice growth this week. It's been plenty cold and mostly still (3F this morning here). I guess the incoming solar energy this time of year balances out the FDDs. And count me as interested in the gtg as well.

5F
-
Meh, not so much. Dropped to 10/3, but it started mixing out again... 14/-4 now. Edit: midnight update, back to making hay again. 8F and falling. C'mon snowcover!!
-
16/4 here heading into dinnertime. Outside chance of below zero tomorrow am?
-
Snow showers unable to survive this far SE it seems. Paying the piper for last night's coating.
-
Definitely. You can see it about halfway through this overnight radar loop (time sensitive): https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/nexrad/index.php?type=ENX-N0Q-1-200

0.3" new here, 6F for a low
-
No, it sounds right to me. Ratios were definitely a bit worse than climo away from the heavy bands. The Walden Cocorahs reporter had .53" which nicely corroborates your value
-
My snow melted down to .45". I think I'm going to go with the 4.5" that fell on the hard, existing snow/ice in open areas. IMO it's a more natural method than the board, which was situated in one of the few areas with bare ground prior to this event. Was really pretty before dawn before the wind picked up and quickly cleared off the trees. As an aside, I'm completely astonished at the 16-18" reports in eastern SNE. Just incredible how that part of the country pushes snowstorms to their absolute limits.
-
Nice! That's what I like to hear. You must have had some truly bonkers rates for a while
-
Storm total is 4.6" on the patio table, 4.0" on the board...
-
1.5" now, so roughly 1"/hr rate at the moment. About as expected. Remains to be seen whether that convective precip over the Chesapeake gains enough latitude to clip my area... sort of doubtful, but should still get into the 4-6" range even without it.
-
Snow growth has definitely improved here as of late. First inch is down, real sticky stuff as expected.
