It's gonna be dependent on where some of the cells start popping. Had a tremendous, and I mean tremendous, 15 minute downpour here around 5pm or so.

Today's rain was very beneficial for the grass and plants though. Relatively consistent light rain, with some heavy bursts here and there. Not a resevoir filler but I can see today things are already looking way greener than Saturday. We did better up this way, about a half inch.

Just over an inch here, most of which fell during about a 20 minute time frame of tremendous downpours.

Could pass for July 2nd, just less humidity perhaps.

Maybe slow gain, but slow decline as well get your Coppertone ready!

I'm speculating but I'd say it seems almost 2 weeks here. Lot of stuff is purely green already. Also the pollen is wicked and usually doesn't kick in for me like this until May lol.

I agree, which is why I dislike those "teases" where we hit 80 for a day during the 3rd week of March. Inevitably it will turn ugly again.

Well if you consider the average high right now is probably around 58 or so, depending on where you are of course, asking for some nice days in the low 60's isn't really a stretch. I mean it's 36 right now at 1pm, and last week it barely hit 40 with full sun.

Wow that's crazy. I'm close to 700ft and have a light coating at best on the grass and colder tables, deck, etc. Not even a half inch.

Yeah heavier rain is setting up now. Still at 40 degrees. It will take some solid elevation to see anything noteworthy.

39 currently. Pretty crazy this time of year with full sun.

Man combing through some of these old threads makes me happy I went into hibernation after the new year. Cant believe how much things have changed in 10 years around here, seems like constant bickering and personal attacks. I think some people need to enjoy this spring and summer weather coming and lighten up a bit, just sayin.

Made it to April 1st, finally. About 1.5 inches last night. Nice to have some good rains as things start to green up and bloom.

But for what reporting station? Again, this whole forum doesn't revolve around EWR and the park. And ultimately, the warmer minimums have been skewing the average to make it seem less impactful. It's like when we have a ratter winter with a mega 25" storm, and people look back and say, well they hit near seasonal average, it couldn't have been that bad. The other half of the picture is that daily maximums have been running cold, and people tend to notice that more. Like I said, we're not a frozen tundra, but if you spend any length of time working or being outside other than running from the car to the store, it's been cold, period.

Yeah last week was a total blowtorch... It's one thing to say we're running near normal, but to say "nothing close to actual cold" is just gaslighting. What do you think, we live in the Yukon? Not everyone lives in the heat island bubble either.
