That is the first and last thing they teach in public met school.  Range, range, range.  LOL.   4-8" snow?  Not enough.  Go 4-10! 

2009-10 was the winter of last minute north trends but razor sharp cutoffs in snow totals. Of the 3 big dog storms (12/18, 2/5 and 2/10) I was fortunate to be inside the snow zone for all 3. Well, the December storm was really supposed to be a mid-atlantic special in the days leading up to the event. It wasn't until the final 36-48 hours that it seemed certain the southern tier would get anything of significance. At any rate...there was a local met (name withheld) who put out a forecast before the storm for 0-24" across Lanco. That later got refined; obviously, but in 56 years I've never seen a snowfall accumulation prediction quite like that one.

I did not realize how dire things had gotten in southern NE...wow. 

Leaves have started turning up there already. It's bad.

You're only going to reach the low 80s.

Yea, maybe.  Definitely not getting 90 here but that was assumed after this summer.

Some 1/2-1" lollipops showing on some 12Z Meso's for this afternoon into the night.

85.2 here under full sun - based on current satellite, 90 is looking like a pretty good bet here right now. 

Hoping for that GFS rain later on tonight.

Nice rains early next week:

Yea, I am just going by the atmosphere and models.  It has actually already rained here but just a T so I did not say anything.    Getting rain on Mostly Sunny zones has been fairly normal this year.   The cell that came by here (I am up in N Franklin right now) is moving up into Cumberland right now.

MDT is steaming this afternoon.  They already hit 90.

Someone said they saw a fireman at the end of a runway with a magnifying glass pointing it at an object.

Sun and 88 - only a 1 degree rise over the past 90 minutes. 

It's a win though - now within my 87-92 range.  

[canderson]

90 at 2:50. 28th(?) I think time to hit it. Probably get another degree or two.

I was already at 28, so we are now tied. Probably for 2nd place behind Pillow who is like at 50 or something.

You 90's guys keeping count, did you notice that 35 is the tops for MDT so that is your goal I guess.  MDT only has 22 this Summer counting today.  That is another question, are you counting summer or year?  MDT's numbers and records are for summer.

I don't say it every time I reach 90, but I've said many times that my count is for 2022 and not just for the summer. 

Speaking of which...it's 90 on the button! Today is #29 for the year.
