Geos Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 April is only 3 days away. What will it bring? Month looks to open up with a big precipitation maker. How it lays out exactly is anyone's guess at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chitown Storm Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 The bank clock is gonna read 64 on March 31...and then April begins 20 degrees cooler. Sign of things to come? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted March 29, 2014 Author Share Posted March 29, 2014 Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday look chilly with that system around, but then it starts rebounding. Hopefully no ending up on the wrong side of a cut off low during April! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted March 31, 2014 Author Share Posted March 31, 2014 Departure of -1°F we can handle! It'll get better as we get further from March. Most of this week looks dismal with three days of rain. 6z GFS shows a very wet region in the coming 16 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Rain chances seem to have been cut here Tues/Weds...but late week looks very wet...and of course below normals temps, although night lows should stay up with cloud cover. Good chance of snow/sleet this week too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 NAEFS for the second week of April...looks like very normal conditions. Its showing below norm around the lakes because of cold lake water... I'll take normal temps in April! Brewers have a horrible schedule in April...lots of good teams from last year... Yankees come to Miller Park in May! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwohweather Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Hopefully this Spring leads to a shortening of the season. I have a feeling there are going to be a ton of cancelled games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Latest CFS forecast for April. CFS_April2014.png Anyone know how good it is with values of anomalies? I tend to use it more to pick out areas of above/below average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitelakeroy Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Never will happen. Exactly they need as many games as possible to pay for those enormous contacts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmc76 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Exactly they need as many games as possible to pay for those enormous contacts. If they were to eliminate the first part of the season all MLB sales for Merchandise and tickets prices would go up 25-30% i don't think people will pay extra to go see a baseball game in June at 1:00 on a weekday...

RCNYILWX Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Anyone know how good it is with values of anomalies? I tend to use it more to pick out areas of above/below average. I don't have any stats to back it up but it's seemed to do a decent job this winter with the anomaly values in a general sense and placement. A good example was with Morch 2012, the anomaly forecast for that month from February was off the charts positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxman1952 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Hope the weather doesn't play "April Fools" on some of you tomorrow. At least we're done with March, the Baseball season has kicked off and we can look forward to spring-type storms and weather to follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitelakeroy Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Still have a bit under 1/2 my yard with snow cover with some 4' piles still around. Yet the last 24 hours where the most melt I have seen. Ice fishing guys are still on the lake as the ice is still over 12" thick though it is being to honeycomb so I am not going out there!! Looking forward to this stuff melting all off but it looks like a good couple/few weeks before the lake thaws here!!!

Chicago WX Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Looks wet here through the end of the week. 12z NAM has 1.46" and the GFS has 2.15"...both totals through 0z 4/5. And naturally, the 12z NAM ends it with 0.3" of snow at LAF. Also, wouldn't be surprised to see some frozen here sometime in the April 7-10 timeframe. Ensembles look cool through the middle of the month. The beat goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 12z NAM goes bonkers. Worthless range for it of course, but I hope it doesn't come to fruition exactly as portrayed...for cyclone's mental well being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
