andyhb Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Although I'm not seeing anything eye popping like the last event yet, the overall regime around mid month looks favorable for severe threat(s) making it abnormally far north for this time of year. This...also seeing several Plains threats on the ensembles, which would be rather abnormal as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Holding at about 64°/65° right now. Left over leaves from autumn are blowing everywhere. EURO pushes the cold front through here at about 11pm. Enjoying having the windows open until then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddylonglegs Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Got a nice heavy shower, but looks to be about done. I see temps are about 20F colder just to the west, so expect to see a pretty good drop here this evening. NWS here in LaCrosse: THE 07.12Z GFS/ECMWF BOTH SHOWING MID/UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BUILDING ACROSS THE CENTRAL CONUS THROUGH THE PERIOD FOR A WARMING TREND. AS FAR AS TEMPERATURES GO...TOOK A BLEND OF THE GFS AND EUROPEAN WHICH YIELDED HIGHS IN THE LOWER 50S SUNDAY...WARMING TO THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 60S ON TUESDAY AND THE MIDDLE/UPPER 60S ON WEDNESDAY. IF THE ECMWF PANS OUT...HIGHS COULD BE PUSHING WELL INTO THE 70S. WILL BE KEEPING A CLOSE EYE ON THIS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Tropical told me In 20 yrs the new spring break destination for MW schools will be the beaches of chicago. Haha!

McDude Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 62F here... Warm out there even without sun... . Doing some yard work. Might as well get a head start. Cleaned the garage last night... Got lots of projects to work on. Same here! Cleaned the garage today. Feels great. I wish March was 60s all the time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Winds are starting to slacken off now. A solar storm that is heading this way is supposed to hit around midnight. So anyone who has clear skies, might see the Aurora tonight. It is predicted to become visible pretty far south. http://www.latimes.com/news/nation/nationnow/la-na-nn-solar-storm-20120307,0,1292439.story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Still a breezy 64 at the moment, but the cold front is about to pass. Already in the upper 30s at Cedar Rapids. Sad to see the warmth go, but it'll be back big time next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iu2001grad Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 One thing I find intriguing is how the local weather guys are handling the gradual warm up after this cold front comes through. In Indy, one channel is saying 65 on Saturday while another is saying 50. It seems that a 15 degree swing is pretty drastic 3 days out among local meteorologists.
