The Ides of March end of Winter 2023
ChescoWx replied to paweather's topic in Upstate New York/Pennsylvania
The thunderstorms last night and showers overnight have brought us a much needed 0.81" of rain here in Chester County PA. More rain with temps remaining in the 40's both today and tomorrow before Sunny and milder on Sunday. We could see an additional 0.5" to 1.0" of rain by Saturday evening. Records for today: High 77 (1929) / Low 12 (1940) / Precipitation 1.21" (1989) / Snow 3.5" (1965) -

Agreed no need to run it down on this site....but there is absolutely no proof of any "extreme increases" even when using the popular adjusted data you show above. Even if that post obs adjusted data was deemed accurate - that rate of increase will not cause any calamities. Also food for thought...what is the right temperature for Earth?? The extreme ice ages and previous warm periods were indeed extreme...what you show above is no emergency no matter how you slice it! -

This is a great global map that truly puts the "crisis" in perspective.... -

Through today we are only at 62% of normal precipitation. Much of this due to our snow drought ( we should be at over 34" of snow so far this season but stand at only 2.7") However, we received 0.14" of much needed rain overnight with more over the way over the next 3 days. With somewhere around 0.50" possible. Today will be mild then we turn much chillier for both tomorrow and Saturday. The NWS has highs in the 50's for both Friday and Saturday...my bet is we get nowhere near that warm as both Friday and especially look like we won't escape the 40's with a chilly cold rain. The sun returns on Sunday with temps near normal in the mid-50's Records for today: High 81 (1907) / Low 14 (1940) / Precipitation 1.20" (1903) / Snow 4.5" (1896) -

Today should be the best day of the week with temps near 60 degrees and sunny! Rain chances start to increase by Thursday through Saturday. This would be some much needed rain for the many farmers in the county. We may not see another sub freezing morning for at least the next week or longer. Records for today: High 85 (1948) / Low 12 (1986) / Precipitation 3.45" (2000) / Snow 5.0" (1932) -

Very cyclical snow totals by decade - low points were reached during the 1930's - 1950's. Average snowfall for the 1910's vs. 2010's almost identical -

It certainly evens out in the end. As here in Chester County we have seen 4 of the least snowy in the last 20 years and 6 of the snowiest seasons since 2000. In fact just 2 years ago a top 20 snow season... -
