Skiing seems boring to me

Ahh man It’s a lot of fun. Used to love it. Only reason I stopped skiing for the most part, was that I got into snowmobiling. Only so much time and money while I’m still working.  But it’s a great sport/hobby.  Every once in a while when I do go…I really still enjoy it.  You gotta get the heck out of that concrete jungle down there.

I do but not until I retire in 7 years.

[Typhoon Tip]

these new NAM numbers would have us pushing 70 on Thursday. 

sometimes that happens this time of year… We’re waiting in misery like it’s never going to end and then all of a sudden it’s right there and you’re like where the hell did that come from?

It’ll get cold again, of course, but I think still looks like April 1 is kind of a step out date graduating to a new paradigm along a seasonal change

6z euro AI is a total cancel there. It is warm Wednesday, but a fail after that.

I don't delve deeply into this time of the year, but the roll forward into April and May doesn't look balmy.

Gawx has pointed out that March 2026 will likely be the most +NAO month of March since 1950. Surprisingly, rolled forward to April and May is not a warm composite

April

May

March to May

Flying to PBI from HVN 6:30 Friday morning. Headed to Miami for a few days for a bachelor party. Hoping that will at least take my mind off things after this week but much, much looking forward to a few days of temperatures around 80 with a touch of humidity. 

[SouthCoastMA]

It's that time of year when my wife or daughter asks me what the temperature will be outside and I'm like "No idea"..becuase I don't have enough interest to check models or forecasts. Yawn.

From what I've heard, leave now so you can get through the lines on time to make your flight.

Exactly.   Although had some friends fly out of BDL a few days ago, and there was no issues at all.  Wiz is going out of Tweed…that’s a small little regional…should have no issues there either.  Coming back out of Palm Beach might be a different story.

We had to put our dog down on Monday and scheduled it to happen like 2.5 weeks ago. It was an absolutely emotionally grinding few weeks and really hard processing. I know things will get better over time but the process getting to that point absolutely sucks.

Sucks...Steve just lost a pet, too.

I had two dogs as a child that I got in third grade....they lived until I was 27 lol. Like 18 years.

2.59” melted through the tipper here. Sad. 

2.85" here, 1" BN for March.  This week's 2 midgets will close the gap, but the month will still be the 10th BN of the last 11.

April 2007 broke the record for snow at the Farmingtion co-op with 36.1"; it's 50% above #2 at 24", POR 1983-2022.  We had 37.2", with storms of 18.5", 11.2" and my only "5-by-5" event.  The Patriots Day bomb brought 5.2" SN and 5.43": total precip.
That said, my best April has to be 1982, as it included the most powerful blizzard of my 80 years' experience.  For anomalous events, I rank that storm with things like the Octobomb, 4/97 at inland sites, 2/78 in eastern SNE, 2/52 in southern/central Maine and the 1998 ice storm.  IMO, only 1938 and 1888 rank higher.

But you didn’t get to experience 1938 or 1888, so maybe you wouldn’t think that they rank higher if you got to experience both of those?  But I agree…both of those at least here in CT were super incredible according to the history books.

Those storms you listed didn’t add up to 37.2”(18.5”,11.2”, and 5.2”)=34.9”.   So I’m assuming you had a couple small snows in there too?

Yup.  Had a 0.3" flurry on the 2nd and 2" paste on the 3rd.

My brother just lost one of his Golden’s suddenly this morning.  Diagnosed with heart swelling yesterday gone today.  Only 9 years old.
