Isotherm Posted April 9, 2012 Author Share Posted April 9, 2012 Anything above 80 in April makes me want to vomit. Anything over 70 with high dewpoints also makes me sick. The last few days have been stellar. Agreed. I for one am hoping warm fronts get caught up to our south. 12z GFS brings the front through Monday, warmest day on Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormlover74 Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 I don't think saying that the pattern is conducive to 80s/90s means that we actually want 80s and 90s. And I agree I won't 60s and 70s this time of year until at least memorial day. Why is everyone in such a hurry to see summer time temps so early. If you all love the warmth so much, then move to Florida or Arizona/South California or something. I'm perfectly fine with 60/70s in April and May, were going to see 90s for days on end from June-August or even into September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love heat but I can wait if having April heat means we'd end up with a summer like 2009. I'm paranoid about that, I don't want a repeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluewave Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Just recorded my highest wind gust of 2012 so far here in Monmouth County -- 45mph. Very impressive. Great sounding for strong wind gusts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At one time this forum was frequented by people who enjoyed cold weather and detested the heat; something has radically changed and now the reverse appears to be true, much to my chagrin.

Stormlover74 Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 I think most enjoy both but have given up on the cold now that winter and any chance of snow is long gone. Personally I don't care for extreme cold or heat though I can tolerate the cold better.

ag3 Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 12z euro supports 75+ degrees late this week into early next week but we have to watch for clouds and rain since the euro also has that for the weekend and into early next week: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 At one time this forum was frequented by people who enjoyed cold weather and detested the heat; something has radically changed and now the reverse appears to be true, much to my chagrin. I vastly prefer cold and snow. However, I try to be as objective as possible when it comes to forecasting. Having to reach conclusions that more warmth lay ahead time and again has been tiresome, to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree completely. Alot of people here like snow but seem to have little interest in other types of exciting weather. Alot of "I like this warm and dry weather every day" posts.

Personally I don't care for extreme cold or heat though I can tolerate the cold better. The snow and cold people are still more numerous, but it does seem closer. As long as the warm people don't root against snow, I'm not annoyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the longer term forecast models have us cooler than normal from May through next autumn. Should be interesting to see when we finally get a below normal temp month. April certainly doesn't look like it. I don't believe May will either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are all for snow and cold in winter...but come spring we want to enjoy the outdoors...only hermits and curmudgeons enjoy cold weather in the summer.

People can enjoy the outdoors with 55-65F temps at this time of year; no need for 80s just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoSki14 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 If you like snow and love warm weather then it's perfectly fine. However if you love warm weather to the point where you want 80s and 90s during the Spring months, then that's an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earthlight Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 I'm worried about potential delay or denial of big heat though. The pattern over SE Canada is very active. It won't take much of a shift for our area to be sitting along a gradient and surface warm front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weathergun Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 The GFS likes to break the down ridges on Atlantic side too quickly. The Euro and GGEM are also not as far south with front, early next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nice weather is starting to backfire big time with all the fires starting up and a looming drought unless we get a soaker soon, looks like we might have a shot next week at some decent rains.

bluewave Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 The April to March twelve month period that we just finished was the warmest on record for the US surpassing 1999. It's no wonder that the temperatures have been running so consistently above normal here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
