Itstrainingtime

You operating with a short pump today?

Jury is out whether or not we'll see any snow in March but it's becoming quite likely that it will be cold...

But you are right...as depicted it's a deep storm with a shit ton of moisture.

I was just going to mention that Randy's PBP in the MA thread matched what I saw...I think that's good.

Next weekend looks like a lot of snow in northern PA and a LOT of rain down here - looks like it end with a few/several hours of snow as the system moves off the coast. That was at a quick-ish glance that I could see on Pivotal.

Now you're baiting me to talk sports. I was ready to give a dissertation on "The Kid" Gary Carter...but I must refrain. LOL

There's nothing Jeltz to track this weekend!

Right now CTP has upper 30s with a chance of light rain/snow for here. I'd imagine some places with elevation might have a nice little wintry scene tomorrow.

What's interesting is that they have a chance of snow in my forecast for tomorrow, but nothing but plain rain on Monday.

Doesn't sound like it - here is the text from their Hazardous Outlook from this morning: (there isn't even a mention of anything tomorrow) A potent upper level disturbance and wave of low pressure at the surface will move out of the midwest and likely spread a period of snow or mixed precipitation across the region Monday afternoon and night with potentially some impacts to travel.

Today's high here in Maytown will be 70, which was the temp at 12:01am. Back to back 70 degree days and we earned it - temp last evening fell to 62 by 8pm, then shot back up to 70 just before midnight in advance of the cold front. Currently it's sunny, windy, and 42.

One lonely 50s on the current map - barely visible at the bottom:

After the past few years of cutteramas, we're overdue for a swing and a miss south...

It's currently 80 degrees in Bowie, MD and 55 in Annapolis - they are less than 20 miles apart.

Perhaps sometimes in some places, on the whole I don't agree with you. Lots of examples today of locations with much cooler temps than surrounding areas. You can't tell me that all of the instruments are whacked at MDT, Inner Harbor, Annapolis, etc. It's not the instruments, it's the effect of adjacent very chilly waters this time of year.

Oh, I totally understand and agree with you. I think that's why there's so much fuss down south with DCA's snow and temp records...sitting right on the river in that valley no doubt influences their numbers as well.

Breeze coming across the chilly river doing it's thing...

Lancaster officially hit 70 as did the historic district.

Incredible - you don't have to drive far at all right now out of LA proper to get into deep winter. Always love flying into LAX or SNA (John Wayne in Orange County) to enjoy the descent over the last mountain range...the Pacific is right in front of you along with millions and millions of people in the valley between the ocean and the mountains.

There is most definitely a water influence in today's temps - at 2pm, it was 77 at BWI and 61 at the Inner Harbor. Even more impressive...it was 49 at Annapolis at 2pm.

Back to MAG's post and QPF numbers - the GFS and Euro agree that Mammoth CA receives between 8-10" of QPF over the next 7 days...all of course, will be snow. And, they're talking about 20-1 ratios according to the local NWS office. Mammoth Mountain now feels that with the amount of water content in their current snowpack plus what's coming over the next week, they'll be skiing into at least the middle of July if not August. (that would be without any snow after next week which is HIGHLY unlikely.) The current base is 13' at Main and 20' at the summit. I'm sort of excited for my trip. Starting to wonder if we'll have travel issues heading up CA 203 into Mammoth if this keeps up.

Pretty remarkable - 68 currently at home and here at work.

Thank you for responding. Great information and lots of learning with that.

67...keep up.

"We" only got to the upper 50s or low 60s today! LOL
