Yup.  Just experienced exactly this. Sorry all in advance for all the local references.   Was in central Jersey near Rt 80/287.  Beautiful out - 72 degrees per the car thermometer.  Heading back home, was still 70 degrees on the Northern State.  Then heading south, less than 10 minutes later it was down to 57 by the time I reached Sunrise Hwy.

While I like it in July / August when being on the shore can mean some beautiful evenings even after hot days, in March, April, and even May it can be terrible.

Yep. Was 62 here today, 3 miles north of me was 66/67

To 75 while the sun was out between noon and 2:00 has since cloudy again and down to 70.

Made it to just above 70 earlier per mesonet. I love it.

64 here. Snow hanging tough in the shaded half of my backyard.

Still some ice on the reservoir here. Saw some hooded merganser ducks.

The temperature soared into the upper 60s and even lower 70s across parts of the region. The south shore of Connecticut, Long Island, Queens, and Brooklyn were cooler. Highs included:

Bridgeport: 57°
Islip: 58°
New York City-Central Park: 69° (highest since October 19)
New York City-JFK Airport: 67° (highest since November 8)
New York City-LaGuardia Airport: 69° (highest since October 19)
Newark: 73° (highest since October 19)

Tomorrow through Wednesday will be springlike days in much of the region. Temperatures will generally top out in the 60s. Some 70s are possible in the warmer spots, especially in interior New Jersey. Long Island and coastal sections could be noticeably cooler than interior sections on a number of days on account of a chilly onshore flow.

Afterward, it could turn cooler. However, with the AO likely to remain generally positive, the cool period likely won't be as prolonged as had been the case during this past winter's cold regimes. There may be a short window of opportunity for some snow, but snow is not assured.

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +1.0°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was -0.1°C for the week centered around February 25. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +0.62°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged -0.28°C. Neutral ENSO conditions have now developed. Neutral ENSO conditions will continue through at least mid-spring.

The SOI was +27.95 today. 

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +2.594 today. 

Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 54% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal March (1991-2020 normal). March will likely finish with a mean temperature near 43.5° (0.7° above normal). 

Supplemental Information: The projected mean would be 1.0° above the 1981-2010 normal monthly value.

18Z GFS has joined the 12Z Canadian and the Euro AI with a potential east coast snowstorm around mid month - those HP's in Canada help

Will still be quite chilly especially after the warmup.  

Crazy heat SW US. Phoenix could have multiple 100+ readings and even Vegas approaching 100 in March, which is nuts. That's like us seeing 90s

[PhiEaglesfan712]

There's a difference between chilly and snowstorm. Temps in the 40s, probably. But if you're holding out hope for snow, it's probably not going to happen. Almost always, snow after March 15 is accompanied by cold before it. We don't have that now.

[STORMANLI]

63°

Down to 51° now

Check the temps on the gfs and get back to me.  Stop making outlandish posts.

You know a cold pattern is coming when snowman gives out weenies. He has been doing it all winter.

Could be worse. I missed the blizzard we just had.

It is likely that Bridgeport's 42-day streak with 1" or greater snow cover will have ended today. That would be the longest such stretch since January 24-March 17, 2015 (53 days) and tied for the 3rd longest such streak on record.

It’s over a week out and it’s mid March. Better hope it happens after dark for real accumulation. That’s if it even happens

Dont you live in Philadelphia? How do you make these declarative statements for a region you're not even part of.
