We get plenty of nice sweatshirt weather in the fall and temperatures are more consistent. While it has definitely increased in variability we’ve never gotten to our average temps in spring through consistency, it’s always been swings up and down.

Yeah. March sucks. Worst month in the area. It's way worse up in the snowbelt. They'll be 55 one day followed by teens and blizzard conditions. Just like here but more intense. Well.. maybe not. We do go from 85 to snow the next day lol

Warm is gonna win in this pattern, other than any rainy periods. Upper 70s- low 80s. Too warm too early for my liking. Why cant we just do 'normal' in early Spring sometimes lol. Right to late May/Early June weather. Fuck that shit.

I agree. What happened to having spring. We haven't had spring in years. It just goes from 40 and drizzle to 85 and humid. 55 and sunny would be interesting. Sweatshirt weather doesn't exist here. Just coats to shorts.

I cant remember a recent Spring that had this many temperature swings. One day I'm having to blast my furnace & space heaters, the next, screen doors open and window fans blasting. I've been trying to avoid uncovering the AC units, but with this warm stretch, and people visiting on Easter, I don't think I have a choice.

Loving these temps.  Hoping we finally reached the last of the cold days.  I'd be ok if we don't go below 50 until December.  I actually like March, even with the temp swings, because I know that we're moving in the right direction.  My least favorite weather month, probably by far, is November and more specifically I would say Nov 1 through December 31 leaves little to be desired weather-wise in this area.  Once January hits, there's less wasted cold.  Note, I do enjoy the holidays, just not the weather that time of year.  Basically, outside of a Christmas miracle, I want it warm from March through December lol.

I'm already at 79F.. 1:10pm.

Too hot, bring back the 50's.

Before today.. warmest March on record for CONUS

Idk, maybe it's because I'm right up next to the bay and the water is cold this year but it certainly hasn't felt like the warmest March on record at my house.  But it's definitely warm today.
