E PA/NJ/DE Spring 2025 Obs/Discussion
Ralph Wiggum replied to PhiEaglesfan712's topic in Philadelphia Region
This has been an odd March based on average. I don't think we've even seen a wet flake mixed in. Most years we at least see some white rain in March at some point. Buckling up for our BN April and May probably. -

In his defense it wasn't just him. There were several here and other subs targeting that period. But can't fault them, the ens and tellies all looked good. It was actually refreshing, however, to see many regular posters learned from past experiences not to 'lock it up' wrt post day 10 patterns. Eta: Maybe the mass hysteria hype train didn't leave the station due to it being late in the season? I'm giving the benefit of the doubt though, that most of us just learned from the past, so we'll stick with that story.

Only 1 day left to cash in on our epic window Feb 20-March 15. I think we got this.

The geese are starting to pair up and chase/harass each other. March is clearly only a few days away now. -

I'm going with a C+.....if we had reached seasonal avg probably a B but doesn't look likely now. White Christmas, 13 or 14 'events', cold asf January, a couple minor icing events. I'm comfortable with a C+ -

The bluebirds have been around for about 2 weeks now, heard a woodpecker yesterday, and saw a bluejay today. I dont know annual birding patterns so for all i know those three species are active year-round. Regardless, winter is over. Wouldn't be shocked to see flakes or accums 1 more time as a fluke, but overall winter packed it's bags and is done. -

Well, we got the epic psu event yesterday that partially verified and now we have the great @Heisy storm he has been touting between March 4 and 10 iirc. And Bastardi says a March 1993 is looking likely. So be patient and buckle up. -

Im a C-2" guy but I will chime in. I can confirm i got 1.7 here. Was at half an inch until the narrow squall deathband came thru. Thought I heard thunder as well cant confrm that part. Little over an inch in 30 mins was insane. Ratios helped was 20F at that time too. -
