danstorm Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 25 individual state records ... that's phenomenal And some of them were shattered! Usually these records fall by like 0.1 F... in some cases, they were broken by several degrees! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzucker Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 The funny thing is that the US is red in a sea of blue across the world. It was actually a pretty cold winter globally..UAH/AMSU was below 2008 temps for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 December is a FALL month. lol I hope it fails and March 2013 dumps..just to show him. Plus, I like when Kevin is worried if December sucks. It means in his mind, we only have January and February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes..exactly..If we lose December we only have 2 months of potential winter..which is what happened this year ..until we lost Jan and Feb..so we lost an entire winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Well it has been 5 years now without a wintry March ... March 2007 was pretty wintry, but I don't think 4 years with three of them La Nina consitutes as a regime change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall the last decade March has been spring. That is what many of us have been saying. We have lost it as a month that can be considered winter. Can it still snow? Sure..but overall..it is now to be considered a spring month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is like the fact that we haven't had many below normal falls in the past years. Winter is getting shorter. Is the lack of snow in March partially luck, too? Yes of course. But the expected change is that the cold season will shorten, and it has been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the expected change is that the cold season will shorten, and it has been. The cooling of December and big uptick in snowy Decembers flies in the face of that though. Changes you are talking about wouldn't be detectable by us...probably 99.5% of the March snow "drought" in the last 5 years is variance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the expected change is that the cold season will shorten, and it has been. The system is infinitely too complicated to make that connection. Chaos will tend to destroy clear associations between climate change and characteristics such as a subjective determination of the length of winter.

CoastalWx Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 It's only a matter of time before our stretch of snowy Decembers comes to an end and March becomes a bit more wintry. Notice that our trend of snowy Decembers and lack of snow in March started at the same time. This isn't a coincidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the expected change is that the cold season will shorten, and it has been. Maybe 5% is bad luck that the past 10 March's overall have sucked. Sure there was one or 2 good ones in there, but if you look at the actual data it's pretty damn clear. Warm March's outweigh colder ones..and a violent step twds spring has been the overall theme. I think what we're seeing is the tendency for Mother nature to try and make up for it on the front end..with great Decembers. Now if we see a trend the next 10 yrs that follow this past Dec and it's warm and virtually snowless..then we can probably concede Dec to an autumn month more akin to November.
