March 31st - Potential Wintry Precip (formerly the March Torch Thread)

[Snowlover76]

Just peeked at the 12z euro ensembles and it's south of the operational with the system and a bit cooler.

Looks wet and chilly for Sunday.

Hope it changes as we approach.

Good, better on Sunday than on Saturday. I hope we can get the record for driest March on record.

Lee Goldberg and DT just said on facebook that a big pattern change to colder and stormier air is on the way for the first week of April. Lee also said that some surprises could also happen.

If Lee agrees with DT than he should be in the JB/DT thread

EWR humidity down to 8%, drier than Tucson, AZ which is 9%

By the way for those wondering why there was no mention of a freeze last night"

US National Weather Service New York NY

Typically, our frost/freeze program begins on April 10 for the city, April 20 for Long Island and coastal Connecticut, and May 1 for interior locations. However, due to the extended warm period we recently observed, our frost/freeze program will begin earlier this spring. The program will begin on April 1 for New York City, coastal Connecticut, and Long Island, and on April 15 for inland locations.

4/6/82 and 4/7/03 were nice surprises

I'm surprised, Lee is usually very conservative and IMO he has a bit of a warm bias.

4/7/03 was as good as you can get. I recorded 8" IMBY, and we stayed overcast in the 30s/40s for several days after, preserving the snow amazingly well for early April.

Pretty cold spring too IIRC. Fruit trees weren't out until the 3rd week of April that year.

[CoastalWx]

Nah, Brian5671 says 70s and 80s for days and days.

I'd like to see the torch come back-that was nice. Since we're essentially done with snow threats, I don't need 44 and drizzle.

Look who's talking...the guy who busted 10 times this winter on the "pattern change"

Tomorrow will be a 1 day torch for the city. Approaching 70 degrees.

Congrats Alpha on the Nam

[Thunderdude]

I don't like what the 12z Euro model with abnormally cold weather and possibly a big snowstorm. Death to the Euro if it is saying. I only like snow in the spring ;and late fall.

0z Nam is south like the Euro. It gives snow to parts of CT and upstate NY.

I hope blocking and -NAO goes away soon. -NAO is only good in the winter. I would kill myself if we get another 4/6/82 redux.

I wouldn't mind if we get a snowstorm in early April. Imagine if we get more snow in early April than we got this whole winter lol
