Right. And when they've got the right idea, the pattern may still not produce what you'd expect from those early looks. What we've had (and what appears to be coming) is a pretty ordinary February/ March.
I have found that by pimping LR weeklies a bit too much, folks end up violently disappointed more often than not. That could also apply to torchy looks as well.
I don't remember any torch talk, actually. Certainly not from me. My only argument was that deep winter was long over (which it was and is) Not sure why you are talking about your forecast, it was the furthest thing from my mind. In fact I have no idea what your thoughts were weeks ago.
I don't mind 30's and 40's and clouds in March, as long as there are a few decent days with sun mixed in too. my main enemy is arctic cold and snow and that ship sailed long ago, we're good
