  1. Lousy growth here, but I didn’t expect the steady -SN either. It’s all coated up again much to my chagrin. Maybe a couple tenths?
  2. What do we need to do to eliminate that damn Labrador current? Dissolve Cape Cod into the Atlantic? Maybe Hatteras too?
  3. Well, they’ll keep verifying at H5 in April, but not at the surface. It’s almost time for that 3 month period from 3/15-6/15 of 45-60F every day.
  4. This is the way. Have you been up to CH this winter? It’s probably been meh up there the past couple of weeks with mostly old stale snow, but January wasn’t bad.
  5. I’m glad we were able to suppress the pattern to get people south of us involved. Now we can miss in all directions. But hey, at least it isn’t more rain.
  6. 21.9° with light snizzle. Way more than I expected.
  7. I slept 2hrs. Failed exhaust fan on the pellet stove ftl.
  8. +SHSN Looks like the meat of a deform band right now. Shouldn’t last long though.
  9. Dumping pretty good in a squall right now. 26.8° Will measure in a few
  10. The current 798hr CFS ends on the 1st day of spring.
  11. Pot kettle black. It was loosely CC. Sorry you didn’t like a few posts discussing summer heat events. I’ll remember this when you mention snow in any JJA thread.
  12. It’s funny how we regularly pull 97-100 no problem, but we’ve really only managed to blow through that once regionally since Jul 95 (Jul 2011).
  13. Yeah I know Hot Saturday was humid, but some of those sling psychrometers were juiced back then. I know ASOS has its issues, but at least all of the sites are on the same automated playing field today.
  14. I guess it depends on how you define “extreme” wrt storms. If we’re talking the amount of precipitation, sure. If we’re talking temp gradients, pressure gradients, wind, min slp, etc…I don’t know about that.
  15. Yeah I think we’re less extreme than we used to be. We have a lot more moisture in our airmasses the past 2 decades and thermodynamically that limits the heating and cooling potential of the airmass. We torch way more on mins than max temps. With the arctic warming faster that should make for shorter wavelengths and less meridional patterns too. It may be different in dry/drought areas, but in the northeast I think temps are less extreme.
  16. The lack of snow south and west of us will play a role if/when Scoot’s posted pattern takes place. There’s going to be a lot less of a modification to said airmass and there will be an early green up in the deeper south and TN valley. We don’t have much snow to modify it for long either.
  17. My low for the winter was 4.4° with about 30 seconds under 5° under calm conditions. I was essentially a 7b growing zone this season. I could’ve planted pomegranates last year and had them survive the entire winter.
  18. That doesn’t mean much for us. That will fizzle towards VT. We need the secondary to crank early.
