I know it's easy for me to say I wouldn't but maybe I would. I think I would be totally fine with that and then to change it up maybe deal with 3 months of winter like weather with snow.

Someone had mentioned this but looks like we could see some thunderstorm around tomorrow. Too bad dewpoints aren't even another 10F higher given the lapse rates.

It really does suck. Let's face it, the only people who enjoy winter in New England are those invested in weather or those who like to ski or snowboard. Outside of this, winter is generally depressing with the short days and dark by 4:30. It then takes forever to enter a weather pattern where we're consistently warm and not have to worry about whether outdoor activities will be ruined (minus thunderstorm chances). With both my parents gone and the ability now to work remotely, I am strongly considering at some point re-locating down South. I still have family up here but my girlfriend's family and parents are mostly in Florida. I can always come up this way to visit. I've even considered something like living in Florida from March - May and then September-November and then here from June-August. Just thoughts though...not sure if they will ever become serious enough to act upon but it seems like seasonal depression gets worse every year.

Frosty the Snowman paid me a visit this morning

downbursts can be just as damaging and across a larger swath as EF0-EF1 tornadoes.

We're going through April and towards May, things bloom. Some areas start earlier, some later. Happens every year.

hopefully a shot for thunderstorms at least.

It really isn't bad out. It's great under the Sun with little breeze. Can't wait for it to be 30-40F warmer though with dewpoints 60-70F higher but soon enough.

The NAM almost seems a little too warm Wednesday night

yeah for sure. nice lapse rates and some weak instability

I agree...I don't want average. I want to get right into consistent 70's and even 80's. Luckily, I'm located in a spot in the region where there have been some tremendous days with highs into the 70's...they've been teasers but it's a sign of what we are moving into. I hate though how we really have to wait until mid-to-late May and sometimes even June to get consistently nice weather with very warm temperatures. Nail bitter towards the end but can't complain thus far.

More times than not over the next few weeks we will be above-average, and at some points well above-average (but only a few days at a time). Any periods we get which are closer to average or maybe a bit below are going to be if we're wedged as a frontal system approaches or post-fropa so those periods will be brief.

Today seems to be going as advertised to me

Here is GYX for that date...verbatim would fall a bit short of the record it looks like.

We'll see what happens with that. I'd hold a bit of skepticism right now. It's not a typical frontal system dropping south and east across the northern Plains or upper-Midwest. But this is where the feature in question is currently located. Becomes pretty vigorous and then a piece breaks off and is ejected across our northern areas. If this doesn't work out it will be much warmer than advertised.

I expect any B's playoff series to go 7 games they seem to love them.

The only leaf blow out that matters these next few weeks are the ones from Toronto getting blown out of the playoffs.

It's freezing. Had to wear thermal socks today. booooooo

Time to start looking at CAPE maps not snow maps lol

The only frost or freeze I want right now is on my beer mug when I put it in the freezer

Well the end of the GFS run is getting into May. Just a few weeks away from getting serious about convective/severe monitoring

What a day...top 5 material...hell maybe even top 3.

0z run of the GFS tonight will get into 0z May 1!!!!!

THUNDER!!!!!!!!!!!!
