At mid county interchange at 476 and there is a light accumulation, would call it a solid .2"....36F

And like that precip stopped, temp shot up to 45F, and sun is breaking thru. Gusty.

And like that big flakes mixing in with the sleet, 30% snow, 70% sleet. 39F temp dropped 2 degrees in 4 minutes. Sunshine off in the distance.

Sleet downpour in Ivyland currently! 41F

That's a new England look mid season, let alone down here for us in late March of a waning Nino. I'm with PSU, show a couple GFS/Euro runs in a row of snow and I'll bite. This look won't do it for us. Adjust that trof about 250 miles further S.

Watch us get blitzed next season in a twisted turn of expectations.

Have you tried some higher end mezcal? I love good tequilas, but man that smoke component in mezcal makes me a fan.
Mezcal was my poison back in my 20s. I always fought for the worm in the bottle. Always seemed to contain a hallucinogenic component to it.

Just saw on my Google New feed headline that Philadelphia is bracing for a major late season snowfall next weekend. Can one of you fine folks please clue me in on what I might have missed? Thank you.

Always been a believer that the earth has a way of balancing itself out naturally. Sometimes gradually over time...years, decades, centuries, eras....other times thru extreme sudden events. PSU had been poking tongue in cheek about underwater volcanoes. Ironically,an article surfaced in my news feed the other morning about Yellowstone. I wonder if something like that supervolcano (even tho some some scientists dispute that it would ever erupt) would spark a sudden reversal wrt to the elephant? I mean, we've all read the articles about how warming supposedly has created more extremes and shifts in weather. Will something this extreme be the balancing act someday? They don't know how long effects would last but scientists seem convinced it would lead to a nuclear winter scenario. I dunno, just throwing my thoughts/$.02 in the pot if this hasn't been offered as a scenario already. The earth balances itself out over time in mysterious ways.

Beautiful coastal on the euro for next weekend. Seems we do this every March..."where was this look 3 weeks ago?".

May as well issue my final winter grade today. Only a March '58 redux could get me to change my score...
C
Pros: It snowed. We had junk & stuff to track. We had snow on snow. I was under two winter storm warnings (although only one verified). It was better than last year (which isn't saying much).
Cons: Winter was reduced to two, one-week stretches. Other than that it was another long November. Strong Nino, -QBO and this was the best we could do?? There should have been at least one MECS. And where were the nor'easters? It wasn't a dry winter. It started off with those heavy rainstorms in Dec...and then?? Not to steal drought-guy's act but I was certain we'd get our fair share of coastals with wind, beach erosion, watches/warning/advisories, etc. Whether they would be wet or white was the only question. At least 1982-83 and 2015-16 were one-hit wonders.
Final thought: Time to toss SSWE's in the trash bin. They're as useful as Siberian snow cover.
Toss the MJO in the dumpster as well. Didn't really reflect historically what we would expect given the phase. Another overrated/understudied tool wrt east coast winter weather.
