GaWx Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 These last three days of wx have been near ideal for March from my point of view. The walks have been fantastic. The contrast to the very warm and muggy 2/21-3/7 couldn't have been much greater. The dewpoints going way down into the high teens yesterday was awesome. Today's 20s dewpoints along with sunshine and highs in the 60s felt so good. Felt like a pleasantly cool summer day up in the CO Rockies! KSAV had lows of 34 and 35 these last two days, the coldest since way back on January 28th! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Low of 29 with a light frost. Our coldest morning since Feb. 17. High was a mild 62. Dew points stayed in the mid 20's most of the afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olafminesaw Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 47 degrees and no need for a jacket, with a light breeze and that warm march sun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Temp dropped 10 degrees this morning after the front went thru. Currently it is 51/49. Picked up .18" this morning before front came thru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 Picked up 0.30” last night. Beautiful day today with a slight crisp feel to it. These are my favorite spring conditions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted March 19 Author Share Posted March 19 Only made it down to 37.2 this morning (forecast of 31 and freeze warning). Cold air must’ve been late arriving, I figured it would have a tough time reaching freezing while we were still around 50 when I went to bed just before midnight. Currently 45.1 and very chilly. Our high was 48.2 and that occurred just after midnight. Will be close this afternoon but I bet we scratch 50 in the full march sun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Forecasted low of 35, actual low of 45. It was cloudy when I woke up so most likely that is why the temp didn't drop like it was supposed to. Sun is now out and the temp at 11:45 is 50/26. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 For those like myself who enjoy sunny, cool to cold, and low dewpoints for outdoor activities, this is a day to savor, which I'm doing knowing there are very few of these during May-Sep and there almost for sure won't be another near this cold again after this cold spell ends til at least November. I'm especially appreciative of this cold spell knowing 80s should be back here later this week. I had a great walk yesterday evening and look forward to another enjoyable one today. It is now near 60 with breezy conditions, dewpoints in the 20s, and a beautiful deep blue sky that Canadian airmasses often provide along with some pretty cirrus. Meanwhile, wow at how cold it is in the big ATL, what would be cold even for mid January! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StantonParkHoya Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 It’s 55.2 at my house. High was forecast to be 50. Hard to defeat late March sun angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted Monday at 11:28 AM Author Share Posted Monday at 11:28 AM Cold morning, 28.8 at home 25.3 at the farm in louisburg. Maybe room for temps to fall a few more clicks before sunrise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted Monday at 02:34 PM Share Posted Monday at 02:34 PM Just posted by Wilmington, NC, NWS: UPDATE AN INTERESTING MORNING! ADDED SPRINKLES TO THE FORECAST AREA-WIDE PER RADAR RETURNS FOR THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO. SEVERAL CREDIBLE REPORTS THAT SOME SLEET PELLETS HAVE BEEN MIXING IN AT TIMES. TEMPERATURES GENERALLY WELL ABOVE FREEZING BUT SOME STRONG WET BULB INFLUENCE OBVIOUSLY GOING ON. GIVEN THE SLOWLY RISING TEMPERATURE FELT THIS WOULDN'T BE THE CASE FOR MUCH LONGER ESP AS VIS SAT IMAGERY SHOWS THAT THE WEAK ISENTROPIC LIFT APPEARS TO BE WEAKENING. ------------------------ It makes sense with 850 mb temperatures well below 0C (-3 to -4 C) there. 925s were also sub 0C. Edit: Lows of 36 at KSAV and KSVN, not quite as cold as the 34/35 at KSAV on 3/15 and 3/16, respectively. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was this the coldest morning we’ll see before next fall? Well, this was premature. Bottomed out at 27.5 this morning. Colder than forecast. Monday morning was widely forecast to be the coldest this week but we only fell to 28.8. Much frostier this morning as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monday morning was widely forecast to be the coldest this week but we only fell to 28.8. Much frostier this morning as well. In my area, KSAV (airport) ended up with a low of 35 this morning (normal is 50). Similar to you, this was the coldest low of this airmass due to having a better radiational cooling setup vs yesterday, when the low was 36. But unlike your area, today wasn't the coldest of this month as KSAV had 34 with the prior cold period on 3/15 followed by 35 on 3/16. At KSVN (Hunter AAF), the low today was 38, which is warmer than yesterday's 36. The radiational conditions weren't quite as good as at KSAV. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shack Posted Wednesday at 12:24 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 12:24 PM 42 here in Macon for our low. Incidentally, does anyone know why NWS radars are not accessible for the last hour or so? Rather, why the returns disappear on the screen, across the country, all at about the same time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach McGuirk Posted Thursday at 01:16 AM Share Posted Thursday at 01:16 AM 24F at Newport News Intl March 21. This broke the old record low of 25 degrees. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted Thursday at 06:40 PM Share Posted Thursday at 06:40 PM It is now in the low 80s here with dewpoints in the 50s, a beautiful blue sky, and notable breezes. The birds are very active as if to say spring is back. This is all making for a pleasant day to be outside. If I had the time, I'd be sitting outside now to take it all in. There's no notable cold wx in sight at least down this way. It looks solidly AN til it cools to possibly a little BN near 3/28 for a couple of days.
