IWXwx Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 +15.3 through March 28th for FWA. Too bad we couldn't squeeze in this coming Sunday and Monday's +20-25 departures to bump up the March numbers. It will be a nice positive start to April, although I'm predicting April won't end up at +15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Today's cold took a 0.5° bite off the month's departure! Still at +16. Update: After today's cold, I'm barely hanging onto +16. Tomorrow will probably put me under. +15.4° for the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWXwx Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 FWA ended +14.2. Not even close to my +16.8 prediction. It was still an amazingly warm month though. My high prediction was based mostly on models returning to mega torch conditions which never materialized. This weekend is an example of that. Was originally predicted to be in the upper 70's yesterday and 80's today and tomorrow. It still has been at or above normal for the past week, but nothing like what was progged.

I made the same false assumption. The month ended up finishing +15.7 (although there is missing data in the F6 for March 30). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 +14.4 would be my guess for DTW DTW ended at +13.5F...below normal temps at months end bit into that departure. Does anyone remember what DTWs highest departure was (probably at the end of the torch) for the running monthly mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Just imagine if the new climate normals didn't go into effect until this summer. We could have tacked on another degree or two to these departures. I made a little excel spreadsheet to model the potential departures. If this heat spell breaks at the end of the week and the rest of the month has more typical highs around 50 and lows near 40, then the month will still end up +12. I will play it conservative and go with +13 at CLE. Perfect guess, CLE ended up at +13.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone remember what DTWs highest departure was (probably at the end of the torch) for the running monthly mean? not sure but I am guessing +15.5ish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OHweather Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Perfect guess, CLE ended up at +13.0 Ya, nice work. All 6 of the climo sites in CLE's CWA experienced their warmest Marchs on record regardless, and none of them were even close to the previous record... http://www.erh.noaa.gov/er/cle/txtprod/pns_2012_04_01_mar_record_warmth.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
