Itstrainingtime

I'm I guess embarrassed to say this but I took my tree down on January 31st...

Looks like February wrapped up between 4-5 degrees above normal. March looks to be more of the same. (both according to MU)

Yes indeed - Happy Met Spring to all!

I follow a couple of mets out there and it looks like it turns colder with what they refer to as "inside sliders" that will provide some snow showers with smallish accumulations. Not a shutout but nothing big looming on the horizon. It seems like it's almost a foregone conclusion that the season winds down this year by May, which is very early. Even in bad years they usually ski on Memorial Day weekend but this year that might not happen.

Hopefully it won't be like the Easter Sunday playoff game against the Bucks back in 1981. Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Semis attracted 6,704 fans. It was so bad that all of the lights were turned off in the upper 2 levels of the building. All fans that day were seated in the lower level, most along the baseline. That was a game #7 with Erving, Toney, Jones, etc.

Nope, sorry. Easter isn't until the 17th. Snow chances are the first 7-10 days. Besides, I'll be at the Center watching playoff basketball on Easter.

It's a great video. He does a phenomenal job of breaking things down. He is all but completely writing off March in it's entirety. (and yes, I read what Bob Chill said and I happen to agree with him, but I'm posting Elliott's discussion for viewing pleasure)

During the time period of that Euro depiction, Elliott is calling for highs near 70. LOL

If you have 17 minutes to spare, here is Kyle Elliott's spring outlook. If you don't have 17 minutes, some "highlights": Little to zero chance of snow during the entire month of March (he's been saying this for weeks now) 2-3 days early next week near or into the 70s Very warm March - many days going forward above normal, some 80s possible April - colder than normal (2-4 degrees below normal) Several cut off lows with increasing amounts of moisture Wait for it...wait for it...an increased chance of snow during the first 10 days of April... If you watch the video, it should be the one closest to the bottom of the screen - "Extended Forecast" https://www.millersville.edu/weathercenter/videos.php

It's funny that you posted this - there is no one posting about this in the areas that the storm actually affects. LOL

Here we are on the last day of February, and if you look at the traffic on the board this morning - the number of posts says it all. Hasn't been a post in the M.A long range thread in nearly 2 hours. If you didn't know better and simply went off of activity, I'd think it was summer.

(takes off my HR management hat) There's a big fat F in how I feel about this winter as well.

The most incredible stat to me is the Warriors scored that one point over 8.5 minutes. At home.

They went on a run that made the Warriors famous. Nice to see it turned on them for once.

Love me some Spencer Dinwiddie!

@Mount Joy Snowman likes to provide fascinating weather-related info for us - I can't match his fun, obscure facts, but I will say that out in the Sierra mountain range, Mammoth Mountain picked up 161" of snow in December. In January and February combined, they received 7".

"Only" 29 this morning after a forecasted low of 22.

High today was 52. Picture perfect Sunday!

Sixers-Knicks might take 3 hours to finish.

Yes, still a lot of volatility to keep things interesting for a while longer.

Was just reading some comments from Bob Chill and he's even less enthused than CTP. LOL

I looked at the 12z GFS yesterday. Other than that, I haven't looked at anything for about a week now. I just don't see a lot out there to get excited about. Maybe something will change in the mid range.

To say that CTP is not enthused is an understatement - my forecast is for Mostly Sunny every day this week with highs later in the week in the mid 40s.

GFS long range is rain and more rain. No snow in the LSV throughout.
