Enjoy this weather now. We are probably only a couple of weeks away from 3 straight months of 60+ dew points.

Yeah watching the pirates in Boston right now really drives home that point

Well I mean if there was going to be a high tornado threat they’d likely have continued east with the tornado watch instead of severe thunderstorm

Honestly it feels wonderful out today. With the breeze and 52 dew point if our summers were like this it would be great. problem is if it’s 85 in the summer it almost always means 65 plus dew point

Severe thunderstorm watch to the west is a good sign for those of us that don’t want tornadoes

I might just say screw it and off myself if we ever hit 96 in april.

I didn’t even complain this winter, because honestly there wasn’t even a last minute screw job where it rained and Youngstown got a foot. We didn’t even have a winter storm watch and I’m not sure we had more than two WWA’s. as far as someone upthread was mentioning about summer. It’s sucks. If it was 85 with 40 degree dew points and we dipped into the 50-55 range at night it would be fantastic. We obviously aren’t high desert so I get incredibly tired of the endless cycle of 80-90, constant dew points 60 or higher, and not seeing a temp in the 50’s for July and august. We do not do dry heat at all here

Welp

I don’t ever remember it being this frequent

Does it feel to you that there are many more borderline events that change over way faster or are plain rain as opposed to at least long mixing periods. I can’t remember the last time we had a good front end thump of four inches, then followed by hours of mixing before turning to rain. I mean hell, I think of the December event last year where we had a near perfect track yet mixed most of the event.

I agree, climate change can’t be viewed on such a small scale, but I think that over the last 10-15 years it certainly anecdotally feels way warmer than when I was growing up. A 60 degree day in February growing up was a really unique occasion and now seems to happen much more often

Climate change is real. Period

I think denying climate change is really shutting your eyes at this point. Individual data points of individual locations is not a great way to look at it, but it’s pretty undeniable on a global scale https://climate.nasa.gov/vital-signs/global-temperature/

I really haven’t even looked or tracked this winter. The last two winters were decent, and honestly came with a few bigger storms which was a nice change in comparison to a long time where we couldn’t even get a warning level event. that said, it sure feels like we don’t even get the overrunning events where we start with multiple hours before torching, even if means a sloppy mess of snow and ice. It seems now everything just turns to liquid really fast. And if we are forecasted all snow most of the time it ends in a mess

Also, clarion has verified blizzard conditions. Bradford has come close

There are multiple stations north of us reporting heavy snow but looking at the radar I find that dubious. Have to wonder if stations aren’t picking up on the blowing?

Literal white out right now

Radar is much more impressive. Northern half of the county is going to get slammed the next 1-1.5 hours.

Radar looks like it has filled a bit. Looks like at least moderate snow the next 1-2 hours.

All I know is I have to be at work tomorrow at 8 and want to die already. I don’t think the timing could be any worse

Oh well, was unlikely this was going to ever be much anyways

Given no comments guessing GFS was a dud

I got about an inch in Wexford so really nice surprise. That was much like an event last year where we got 2-3 inches when it was supposed to rain and had dynamic cooling kick in.

Looking at the GFS next week it looks like we go straight to winter.

Honestly, and this is semantics, I hate when anyone says “the town is under water” when it’s like a foot of water. Ft myers beach was under water. New Orleans during Katrina was under water. This is inundation but not under water
