This is legit unsettling. There is nothing enjoyable about this. A sign of things to come, and if you don't think so, you're lying to yourself. It is 76 in Brooklyn right now a week after Valentine's Day. Absolutely bizarre

Global warming is awesome. Snowier, more condensed winters with earlier and later torches.

What's the threshold on that? It's only like 10-15mph right now.

I'm not sure, But the water will go right to the top of the tree, Met herb could answer it though, Lol, Just found this.

This is what an old timer told me 30 or so years ago:

Wind out of the North, the sap Cometh Forth
Wind out of the East, the sap runs the Least
Wind out of the South, there is a Drought
Wind out of the West, the sap runs the Best

From @MWObs Twitter 6minutes ago

It's t-shirt weather on the summit! Despite 100 mph winds, temperatures have climbed to 48F!  This ties our record for warmest reading in meteorological winter!

February record of 45 set yesterday (prior was 43)

I'm sure they must have had higher than 9C in a cutter?

I would've thought the same on Mansfield but looks like the summits are crushing their Feb records and maybe winter month records.

I was surprised the old Mansfield High record was 51F... figured like you a cutter with +10C or something would do that more often.  Guess not.
