Massive ice jam up in Luzerne county on the Susquehanna. If that thing goes quickly there may be some issues.

Yep called it 

D*** right you did. You've been running a perfect track record for probably well over two years.  Every time a storm has missed north, south, east, or west you've called it.  One can only enviously ponder such forecast precognition.

This Tuesday am slop storm is why everyone seems ready for spring. What waste of moisture. 
 

Next weekend is garden party. Mulching, cleaning, etc.

It's going to be 60°F and sunny today. Winter can suck my entire ass.

Low of 31. Splendid day on tap today. I’m going to take the kids to the park. I imagine everyone will be out and about. Then a few days of crappy weather before we get the prolonged warmup. But winter is still lurking for late March.

 From what i'm reading, Seems like the "forever Winter crew" is suddenly looking forward to Spring.

I thought today was supposed to be as sunny as yesterday. Right now we're close to a solid overcast again.

My kid's birthday party is today otherwise we'd be at the closest playground.

Today will be the warmest day of the year with highs into the mid 50's. The warmest day so far this year was 51.4 degrees on January 7th. Today will be our warmest day since the 56.6 degree reading on December 19th. To put a fine point on how unusually cold this winter has been since December 1st today will be only the 6th day to reach 50 degrees or higher. During the winter months of December through February 60 of those 90 winter days featured below normal temperatures. The warmth will be short lived as a cold front crosses the area overnight tonight. We could also see some wintry precipitation by tomorrow morning as light rain looks to transition to some freezing drizzle as temperatures fall below freezing by 7am. The freezing drizzle could end as a little light snow before ending by noon. Very cold on Monday with temperatures remaining below freezing and more snow arriving by Tuesday morning. This should change to rain by Tuesday afternoon with warmer and wet conditions through much of the upcoming work week.

I’m out scouting fishing spots it’s so nice….counting down to trout season and deciding on lycoming vs little pine

Ice jam city - it’s wild how the leading edge is flat then it’s moon crater everywhere

It was off and on here for awhile. Now, finally, we are wall to wall blue skies.

That’s a wrap for me unless we get a significant storm to track.  Easily a B+ winter in my book.  Early season cold in December, sustained cold throughout, lots of tracking, the 12” storm in late Jan, plus some big near misses. 
I’m glad to have this community to share the ups and downs of winter tracking and looking forward to starting another season in October.  I hope everyone enjoys the warm season! -B. Bundy

See you in mid March sir.

We are not done tracking yet!

I have a feeling that after the 70s we will have more chances. And people will be pissed.

And I will love it.

A glorious 64° under full sun here in Lebanon

This was a very strong winter….no doubt about it…my heating bill agrees

 

[canderson]

It is 64 out. At this rate might hit 80 next Monday.

Got up to 60.1 in Tamaqua today.
