March 9-16th of '95. On 9th I had a 68 high, then a 22 low with 3 inches of snow. Next day an 11 degree low. Rapid turn around and a 77 degree high on the 16th. Crazy.

Either the 2nd or 3rd time already this year where I zoom up to almost a record high then clouds/showers suppress it at the last moment, lol. High was 79.5, record 80 from 1990.
-
Yep, several opened up here today, crazy. This weekend is the Highland County Maple Festival, hoping those 40's and 50's in the forecast there happen. Something seriously wrong with going to a Maple Festival in shorts lol.

Just chased inside by a gusty shower in last 10 minutes. Been outside all day working on the yard and getting garden area prepped for the upcoming season. High was 79.5 about 1/2 hour ago, down to 69.6/56.4 with the rain falling now.

So, I was likely heading to a record high, it was in upper 70's right at noon! Then presto! Clouds rolled in and I had several rounds of small gusty showers thru about 10 pm. Enough to NOT allow a new record high at 79.0 degrees (record is 80 from 2009). Same with the low at 48.8 degrees, sandwiched between the current 'warm minimum' record of 50 from 2009 and the 48 degrees from 1983.

Shattered. High was 78.7 degrees, new record.

Currently 49.5/49.0 out there at 8 am. Yesterday just missed a record high at 76.6 degrees, record was 78 degrees from 1994. If we hit that temp today it WILL be a record, that is 76 degrees from 1995.

The greatest snowfall was 1.0 inches on the 7th. There were 3 days with measurable, 4 days with a 'T' and 20 snowless days. There were 14 days with measurable SOG at 7 am, 4 days with a 'T' and 10 days with no snow. Averaged high was 43.1 degrees vs a normal of 46.0 degrees, -2.9 degrees below average. The warmest temp recorded was 68.1 degrees on the 21st. Averaged low was 23.2 degrees vs a normal of 24.0 degrees, -0.8 degrees below average. The lowest temp recorded was 5.4 degrees on the 9th.

Plenty of new records, the 1.21 inches of rain set a new daily record on the 20th. New record low temps set on the 9th and 10th. New record 'cool maxes' set on the 1st, 2nd and 8th. A cooler than average month with slightly above average precip, but strangely less snowfall.

That would be a no. Watched lightning go from W/NW to N to N/NE as storm skirted JUST to the north. Still got enough sprinkles to get everything wet.
-
Watching the skies fill in with lightning off to the W/NW, MAYBE it makes it here in 40-45 minutes.....
-
38.0/37.5 with rain and fog at 4 pm. Dreary, dreary past two days. The snow yesterday morning was nice though, even if it only got the ground white.
-
Just one more small 2-3" snow area wide should do it...

Just missed a record high at 66.7 degrees, record is 67.5 from 2011.
