Itstrainingtime Posted April 25, 2023 Author Share Posted April 25, 2023 My concerns about the winds last night were well founded. I was still at 41 at 4:00am before it dropped off sharply after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anotherman Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 Wtf my highest was 14 I think he means that the wind kept the temperature from dropping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, it wasn't "windy" per se but it was more than windy enough to prevent good radiational cooling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you see forst tonight? Yea or nay. That wunderground map I put up showed the high differences between the East and West Shore as to temps last night. A few mid 20's in Cumberland if I remember correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itstrainingtime Posted April 25, 2023 Author Share Posted April 25, 2023 MU has been tweeting a lot about the upcoming pattern - this is all from the past hour: (1/3) Now that's a change! The Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) wave has migrated into phase 1. In an ENSO-neutral April, there is a strong correlation between phase 1 & the large-scale pattern across North America. Unfortunately, phase 1 promotes below-normal temps in the East. (2/3) The ECMWF computer model 500 mb height anomaly forecast for the upcoming weekend looks a lot like the MJO phase 1 pattern. A ridge over the West (+PNA) will combine with high-latitude, Greenland blocking (-NAO) to suppress the Jet Stream over the eastern U.S.. (3/3) What does this mean for us? To make a long story short, the summerlike warmth of recent weeks is gone. Highs will be stuck in the 50s/60s each afternoon through at least May 5th. And yes, we'll deal with a few "cold rains" and perhaps another frost or two. I'm not a fan.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This last week is ruining the chance for record anomalous April totals temp wise. MDT lost 1/2 degree off their average from yesterday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the golden time for it as long as it rains....no super cold freezes and the sun is not too bad yet. Mid-May into Sept, it needs rains every 2-3 days or begins to wilt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You remind me of my old Mexican neighbor from many years back who used to mow quite literally every other day, and afterwards would spend endless hours hand clipping stuff with scissors. Kid you not. He once intimated to me that it was mainly to get away from his wife haha. I will be mowing for the 4th time on Thursday, prior to the weekend wetness.
