From mid 60's to mid 50's to low 50's to now upper 40's... 

I am beyond pissed off right now. The warmth is delayed and almost denied, but the cold push will be right on schedule.

Saturday

A chance of showers before 7am. Areas of fog before 10am. Otherwise, mostly cloudy, with a high near 48. Calm wind becoming south around 5 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%.

I’m looking forward to our 3 or 4 day warm up while actively tracking snow chances around St.Patty’s Day!

I am hunting that 6.2 of snow to get MDT to climo seasonal average!

I’m basically alone but I absolutely adore days like today. Mid to upper 40s, drizzly. I really should live in Ireland. 

I'm with you on this one.

Truly what I adore are those June (they cut off lows in the love June for some reason) backdoor cold fronts with a cut off lower where it's drizzling, 60, with a stiff east wind for a few days. Bonus points if it saves us from baking like our friends accross the mountains to the west. I remember once we sat between 56-63 for 3 days while Pittsburgh was in low 90s. I actually felt made for @Voyager who I think was on the verge of driving out there just to spend an hour in the sun.

Winter is not over!

No grades from me until April 10th when it becomes almost impossible to snow around here at that point.

Thanks for sharing. I'm well below normal as well. I know that many here only care what MDT has recorded as their basis for for determining snowfall, but I'm WELL below what MDT has recorded this winter and quite frankly...to me, that's what matters. 

Are you as worried about the drought like I am?
