It actually almost felt warm when I got in my truck yesterday afternoon. Sun definitely getting stronger as we head towards March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowMeHunter Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 forecast is for lots of clouds this week and even into the weekend.. shouldn't loose much snow like that especially who gets a nice wallop of heavy wet snow. But yes that sun is warm.. worked up a little sweat and the big dogs were rolling all around in the snow to cool off at the dog park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daddylonglegs Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Went hiking...sweating like a pig with full sun and almost no wind...the reflection off the snow didn't help. Cross country skiers everywhere. Saw a few people on snowshoes, but probably not needed. Lot of ice under the snow up on the bluffs, so had to take it slow. Gorgeous day...probably the best day in a few months/..for me at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgeous day...probably the best day in a few months/..for me at least. I went out too. We only have a trace of snow on the ground. Went to the spillway of a local reservoir to see if the walleye were hungry. They weren't. Very nice ice formations on the bluff along the river. I also spotted 3 bald eagles under sunny skies and 34°. Beautiful day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 36 here with blazing sunshine lol. Some melting but snow seems dense enough to resist some of the melting. Pretty bright out there with the higher sun angle and fairly fresh snow cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowstormcanuck Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 After today's snow, up to 35.5" for the season. With Tuesday's storm, there's a good chance of surpassing the 40" mark before March even begins. Rewind 6 weeks ago and ask me if I'd thought that'd be possible.

Chicago WX Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Look at the temp right now, 37º, and I want to say torch. Then I remember that the normal high here today is 42º.

IWXwx Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 IND overperformed at 41° today. Below normal, but slightly higher than forecast. Forecast for them is 42 tomorrow. With sunny skies, no snow cover, and some wwa, I'm thinking 45. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TugHillMatt Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 For sure! I remember when I moved up here the third week of Sept last year and was on my way home from the market at 8pm and it started sleeting hard and lightening/thunder/wind. It covered the ground about 1/4". I suppose that was the official start of the snow season tally. Had snow the middle of dec and its been here solidly since. Had One day it almost left but didn't. Locals say hunting season Nov15th, there's usually between 5-15" on the ground and stays from there so it was a month late in staying this year. From perspective, it lived up to all I was hoping for and then some. Couldn't imagine '08/'09 when my town had 180". Nice. Did you retire there or find a job?
