I expected this pattern to come a month ago. Not just temps but precip, which has been wildly anomalous December on. DEC: 9.35" Wettest by 1.50" (26 year POR here) JAN: 5.47" 0.54" below the wettest (1999) FEB: 0.95" Driest MAR: 7.41" 0.50" below the wettest (also 1999) but likely to finish on top. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2Otown_WX Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 6 hours ago, dendrite said: Nope. -5 across the board. Yeah I was looking at that after my comment...I guess I thought the average low would have been higher. I know the coldest min in January at BDL has gone from 12 or 13 to 17 I think since the 1971-2000 normals. I was also just speaking generally about rising mins.

Yeah in general a lot of our well above normal stretches over the past 2 decades have been biased toward the mins. But this month it’s been fairly even over the interior. I think the lack of any cold the first 20 days of the month changed our perception of what normal March temps should be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NW_of_GYX Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Some absolute weenie solutions from the GFS for next week over last couple of runs. Transfers, gets stacked and rots in the GOM. What a crazy way that would be to get Maine posters above average snowfall for the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstronomyEnjoyer Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 What a nasty day. Got a nice sweat going shoveling a foot of wet snow off the barn slab just to put up one little section of wall. Just soaked. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been looking on the bright side and so far Thursday looks like the only washout. Weekend was looking nice but anytime I see the word "stalled" in conjunction with springtime it worries me. "Still thinking this weekend remains mainly dry, but the picture is not as clear as it once was. A low pressure should move into the Maritimes from east of New England by Saturday. The question then becomes where exactly will the cold front of this low pressure be. At this time, thinking it stalls just to the south of New England."

Amazing Actually it’s not as often as you might think Ant. Sure, it’s alot more often most all the time (except 2010) than NYC, but they’ve had a pretty lousy year this year too. But again, most areas North and east and North and west are better than the inner city most of the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
