Now that you bring that up -- I've been reading that Canada had a very warm and dry winter and some think that 2024 could be even a worse wildfire season than last year As much as we love those cool, low humidity days after summer cold fronts, I'd rather take the big heat that comes with a SW flow if there are big fires burning up there

Yeah that months-long period of 40s/50s with dreariness and bare, forlorn-looking trees and barely any snow most years is too much. I call it "The Dark" lasting from Nov. 1 to March 31 and am glad it's over. Although sometimes April can stink but next week's looking great

What a gorgeous afternoon - you can almost see the trees greening up Next week is looking real good with late spring-like temps

Remains to be seen but it's nice to see 60s and 70s all the way thru the forecast period. Lot of rain later this week hopefully several dry days starting this weekend

2045 center path goes right over Disney World -- that place is gonna lost its mind over that I wanted to see this one but it didn't happen so it's 2045 or bust! (I'll be 78)

It would be cool to be at Lake Cedar just south of Carbondale, IL where "x marks the spot" from the 2017 and 2024 eclipses. Weather looks great there too. I wonder how rare it is to have two eclipses intersect just a few years apart?

I'll second that! They're advertising three days of sun starting Sunday so better enjoy before we get days of rain again after. There's light at the end of the tunnel though as the 6-months of 40s/50s and rain that we endure here is almost over

Go with the inch! I was also suffering thru a two hour Teams meeting at that time Burst of rain is thru here and had a little graupel mixed in

Nice looking line moving in from the west. I await my serving of graupel

Snowshoe by chance? We want pics!!

Oooh Sydney is right in the center of totality at 2 PM! That's gonna be a huge event. At first I thought aw man mid-winter but July is actually their 3rd sunniest month in terms of percent of possible sunshine. Average highs in the 60s

Looks like the southern side of the eyewall is starting open up as it moves thru the Eastern shore

Wow at that squall line blasting thru western WV -- warning says it's moving east at 70 mph

I saw that too! Earliest I can remember around here. I usually get my first sighting the 3rd week of April, and occasionally 2nd week. Looking forward to them arriving Cloudy and 57. Hope LWX radar is back up for tomorrow

I don't know why but my area gets as much rain as anywhere, except summer thunderstorms. I guess it's the higher elevations to my west around to the north

I think I might have had more thunder already than all of last summer LOL My area has 12-ish inches of rainfall for the first quarter of the year and April looks to start off wet

Looking forward to rare sunshine today, even if windy. I think we're in for a rough spring with clouds/rain at least 50-75% of the time

Already 72 in Germantown. That smoke you're seeing is from an Oil tank fire at asphalt plant

Yup! I say we see some 85-plus somewhere. Northern Michigan hit 70 today

Thunderstorm moving in from the SW with some good lightning

Gonna be another nice one before rainy Saturday. I like the 6-10 day with way above avg temps. Hope we stay above avg thru April then normal May and below avg June

Wow you're in summer form already? We're actually really wet here. We do fine in synoptic rain; it's the summer t-storms we mostly miss due to orographics

WOW I can't wait to see some of your videos of this. Current Donner Pass forecast: Thursday: New snow accumulation of 8 to 12 inches possible. Thursday Night: New snow accumulation of 17 to 23 inches possible. Friday: New snow accumulation of 19 to 25 inches possible. Friday Night: Snow showers. The snow could be heavy at times. Widespread blowing snow. Saturday: Snow showers. The snow could be heavy at times. Widespread blowing snow Saturday Night: Snow showers likely, mainly before 11pm. The snow could be heavy at times. Areas of blowing snow before 11pm.

A beautiful day but no walks for me for a while as I just had surgery for a torn achilles. I love gardening too but that's not looking good! Partly sunny and 58. I know it's been said a lot but we so better not get a perfect block and a gulf/east coast low in April for low 40s and rain for two days

Yes much lesser amounts out west with just a few inches Hagerstown to Winchester. It was like a monster version of Jan 2000 with the heaviest amounts by the Bay.
