It doesn’t have a temp below 50° for me for the entire forecast period, yet we had frost this morning and another frost threat tomorrow.

Working on it

32F… kind of has a November vibe with not much greenery and still stick season.

Weird with the long daylight though.  Bring back the 70s.

A little better, but still seems too high compared to modeled 2m temps.

What’s up with those times too? Max temps are 03:00 and mins closer to 12:00 or 15:00.

The 80s on Tuesday made a huge difference here. Trees started leafing out, fruit trees are flowering, and the catbird, orioles, and hummingbirds have returned. It just looks and sounds different out there.

Yeah we have started with some stuff and it was really just this week, but still largely sticks especially just out of the valley floor above 1,000ft.  I can tell it’s about to explode though.  Feel like we need another 1-2 days of sun and mild and it would go full green everywhere.

Light snow/flurries up here at 1,500ft base of ski area, ha.  Phenomenal.
