CoastalWx Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Ok to each their own Well it's not a guarantee, but CNE and NNE still average a good several inches or more from here on out so yeah I feel pretty good for at least that area. If I'm wrong then it was probably because we could not get moisture into this region. I expect mid to perhaps late April to be warm again. May might be up in the air.

CoastalWx Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 What was that forecast that showed the coast touching 70 and Steve was laughing it up saying not a chance in the world? Well, it did yesterday. I agree, normal to slightly above normal returns for the beginning of April, with another torch perhaps setting up around April 7 or so. Because you never had a seabreeze.

Mr Torchey Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Because you never had a seabreeze. Which was forecast all along, nw wind and we bake, just like Boston bakes on a sw wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian5671 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Looks like we're in the soup this AM--slate gray overcast and 42. Wonder if we even get out of the 40's today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian5671 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I just want the cold back to stop the blathering on about 'torch' this and 'torch' that. My god. Hey, can you get me back into OT? If I'm forced to stay in here through the wretched warm season I may lose it. You are going to hate it here next week...watch us all celebrate days and days of 75+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think there alot of folks like MRG for example who are thinking we are going to have some type of cold wintry pattern return for the first 2 weeks of April with mulitple snow chances. The folks that think that are going to be disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The folks that think that are going to be disappointed. Well I certainly would not "expect" it per se, but I think the scale starts to tip in their favor later this month. Spring is the time of year where you can get a 32F blue snow cone and then be 55-60 the next day. I think people are getting confused in thinking highs will be consistently in the 30s when it does cool down. Nobody is saying that at all. But, it really should not be a stretch to think those in the high terrain can't get snow. I'm not sure why that is so hard to understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it's not a cold pattern..It's a normal to above normal pattern. If it looked like we were going to have cold shots..then this would have more legs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can have a brief shot for a couple of days and that's all you need. Many of our storms had temps in the 60s and 70s a day or two prior.

CoastalWx Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Today is kind of interesting. It looks like drier air is being brought down from Maine on NE winds. However, the best moisture pooling is closer to CT and down by NYC. I wonder if cigs might actually break up first near BOS and points NE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of those things where the return flow around the high may screw areas further sw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
