  1. Yeah they used to take temperature measurements 3 times per day. Definitely missed a good number of highs and lows.
  2. Recurving typhoons don't always mean a trough in the east. That's a preferred outcome but there are other factors in play as well
  3. the middle of the month is not looking as cool as it once did, temps look to be only average or slightly below. The mean trough position looks to set up further west
  4. 90.5% of people 65+ in dane county have gotten at least one dose. Pretty amazing numbers ETA: 81.2% of the same age group in Dane County has completed their vaccine series
  5. @hlcater just beat me to the punch. Did anyone know anything about this before the report this morning?
  6. Nice line of thunderstorms popping up over Dane County and expanding westward. Looking like I’ll get hit by it
  7. I'm now fully vaccinated and I believe it's the right thing to do. These vaccinations are very successful, do not provide serious side effects(for example I had a worse reaction to the flu vaccine in 2019 than I had to my second dose of the covid vaccine), and they bring us to a place where we don't need distancing and masks. If anyone is having doubts or concerns about the vaccine please feel free to reach out to me, I can help answer some of the concerns or doubts you have and hopefully show you that it is the right thing to do. I don't believe vaccines should be mandatory, I believe a vaccination campaign is much more effective if people arrive at the decision on their own. I do believe that a country may require a vaccine for international travelers, like countries currently do with yellow fever etc. I'm looking forward to spending time with friends and with my father who is immunocompromised without the anxiety of spreading this to him. Life will get back to normal and it will be sooner rather than later. We can overcome this and the world will be a better place because of it.
  8. I'm up in Waunakee now and we've only gotten sprinkles so far
  9. need some rain here. gotten nothing from this system so far
  10. Gonna make a solid run at 80 here, would be the earliest since 2012 and about 3-4 weeks ahead of average.
  11. Nice mild/warm spring so far. Need some rain though, the thunderstorms have missed us the past 2 days.
  12. There should be a rule that for every post in the Covid thread, you have to make 2 in an actual weather discussion
  13. Yeah I think people need to be careful with saying that these new variants are more dangerous for younger people. I think they are just taking up a higher percentage of hospitalizations since older people are vaccinated and aren’t getting sick
  14. Some feisty storms crossing the Mississippi. Really taking advantage of the steep mid level lapse rates despite the meager surface moisture
  15. Amazingly this has been the most civil one out of all of the other subforums.
  16. Finished 5 degrees above normal here. 12th warmest March on record here.
  17. getting some flurries here with the passing convective showers today
  18. surprised no one is talking about the lake effect snow potential in Indiana tomorrow
  19. It's been a sneaky warm March here. 10th warmest March 1-25 here in Madison. Should end the month 4+ degrees above average.
  20. After the turn of the month it looks to turn mild with chances of rain, no real cold shots in sight after next Wednesday/Thursday
  21. and of course after I post last night things trend toward a whiff SE here. Will be lucky to get any precip with this
  22. Models have been hit or miss giving us snow with the storm. But if the column cools enough the dynamics of the system should allow for rates heavy enough to accumulate nicely. Sneaky chance at some snow cover when we wake up Friday morning
  23. reading into the medium range tea leaves, this weekend looks like it will be warmer than previously expected, the mild conditions will remain until mid week, until a brief cool shot arrives late next week and then above average temps flood the area starting easter weekend
  24. got .72" of rain yesterday and overnight. With a tenth or two today this should stave off any looming drought for a week or so but would be nice to get a couple more rain chances over the next week.
