  1. Euro really backed off the cold shot for end of week...went from mid 20's on Friday to low 40's, and lowest Temps from low teens to low 20's by Sat. am. Other models do still show the colder outlook however.
  2. Euro has us going from 60° Thursday to well down into the teens for Fri--Sat am.
  3. Low temp here yesterday and today of 27°...still above normal.
  4. Yesterday's pressure trace, from 28.80" to 29.80" in about 12 hrs.....
  5. Had a couple gusts to 40 Mph on my vantage... nearby mesonet gusted just over 50.
  6. Even with a strong nw wind behind a departing record low pressure Feb storm, could only manage 29° for low.
  7. Still have not reached freezing yet this month...even here in suburbia.
  8. Lets hope its not THE event of the winter.
  9. Pressure bottomed out at 28.79"...Total rain of 0.97"...Wind gusted to 45 mph. High temp of 58° which is a date record...Had a 10° temp rise in ten minutes earlier this am.
  10. Yes how did I forget that storm...pressure here got to 28.50".
  11. 2 lowest pressures I've recorded are 28.40" with Sandy and 28.53" with Irene....Expecting to hit around 28.75" tomorrow.
  12. Those excessive rain totals earlier forecasted have gone by the wayside....now look to finish with around 1.25" from last night thru tomorrow midday, more s less n. So far 0.64" here.
  13. I for one am looking forward to my 28.85" pressure reading tomorrow...it ain't much, but its all we got...
  14. Definitely the Vantage Pro2... Still using my original installed in 2003. Have replaced rain gage, anemometer and temp sensor once during that time...No other problems to speak of. Backup battery in iss has been replaced 3 or 4 times, so very good indeed. Not a fan of the all in one stations at all... Can't have temp, rain and wind sensor at same height and expect accuracy on all three. Of course budget and installation availability may limit what you can purchase.
  15. Freeze, flood, rain, snow...bring it. Only thing I don't want in winter is warmth.
  16. Feb 2017 and 2018 were mild, some stations did hit 80° in 2018...last Feb was about 1° above normal only, my station got to 65° max.
  17. The only good thing so far for me is that Dec, at least the first three weeks was ok with some snow and cold....got to enjoy the winter feel leading up to Christmas.
  18. Where we end up Feb temp wise remains to be seen, but with 40 years of records, the last two Febs were my warmest on record...hate to make it three straight.
  19. January finished here as follows.... Mean temp. 37.2° is 5th warmest, Precip. 1.88" is 3rd driest, snowfall of 2.8" is 6.6" below normal. Good riddance!
  20. Don't know what station you're using, but low temps last 6 winters here on SI .... 2, 0, -1, 11, 2, 1 .
  21. We also have to break out of this dry pattern we've gotten into this month...which looks to continue thru the first week of February.
