It least some of the higher elevations were able to reach average snowfall with the recent storm.

@bluewave why do you think we keep getting a stronger passage in p8-1 outside DJF
I guess the orientation of the marine heatwaves in the MJO 4-7 zones holds the convection there longer during the winter. Then the last 2 years the convection finally was able to shift at some point in March. Our last solid winter month here was Jan 22 when the MJO was able to linger in 8.

Tell us you wouldn't enjoy a snowstorm at the end of May? Of course you would. I'll wishcast that storm right now
This blocking pattern going into April looks legit. MJO 8-1 is teaming up with a wave break for Greenland blocking. While the higher elevations are always favored for April snows, this is the type of pattern that could produce a trace that doesn’t accumulate much closer to the coast. I guess it would be like what happened in May 2020. Late season blocks have been becoming more common in recent years.

Last month at this time 8% of the country had snow cover, as of yesterday 48% of the country had snow cover.
Approaching the middle of the pack for late March but lower than the record highs were seeing at this time last year.

It either phases or it acts as a kicker. Really no in between IMO.
I'm not leaning one way or the other yet.
The two streams eventually phase on the EPS by the time it gets east of New England and becomes a potent 50/50 low. A sooner phase like the UK /CMC will just mean heavier rain totals than a later one further east of New England. Either way it looks like more rain for us later in the week. That low creates the wave break and Greenland block then the follow up systems behind are more opportunities for rain into April.

It will be interesting to track the evolving storm details for later in the week. It looks like there will be a powerful phase involved. So the timing will be important as to how much heavy rains the region can get. It is also forecast to generate an impressive wave break which could set up a strong Greenland block into early April. That would mean a continued stormy pattern and probably limit the number of 70° days until the blocking relaxes a bit.

That storm later this week should allow several stations to cross the 10” mark for the month.

Yes we are still breaking daily re-analysis records, but not by "gobsmacking" amounts like we were in the second half of last year. Anomalies are running closer to where you would expect them to be, above last year and moderately above 2016, the last strong nino. We have been in a rough anomaly plateau since last September. With la nina developing, and normal seasonal effects, would expect anomalies to begin to drop soon, similar to 2016, and to cool below 2023 later in the year. We'll see.
Yeah, the second half of 2023 was so much more extreme than anything we have seen before.

Despite record warmth this month we're still getting late freezes.
29F this morning
If we had another week of the 65-75+ warmth and then got hit with these freezes we would have seen a lot of bloom damage.
It figures the MJO would wait until March to finally go into phase 8 like last year.

A harbinger of what's to come this summer & early fall?
Pretty ridiculous SST warmth in the Atlantic for so early in the year combined with a developing La Niña.

this is absolutely crazy Don, how can this happen in March, with no tropical air around?
The radar presentation reminds me of when a tropical system makes landfall to our south and runs up just inland from the coast.

Hopefully, the EPS high pressure forecast works out for the 8th.
