This may pull one of those wrap around 495 deals and leave someone like Ray last to warm up. We shall see. I've been pessimistic before only to be wrong.

Depressingly cold right now up here. Temp fell 2F in past hour to 36F with light rain. Those 50's and 60's advertised earlier this week will not happen up here it seems.

Dryslot. Lets get creative, make $ and go on sharktank. One of those weighted blankets with a waterproof plastic wrap made the size of car windows. Place it on each night during frost season and save hours of scraping each winter. We can make millions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I want to design something to use for storm chasing to protect against hail. I don't care about the body getting dented, but obviously a shattered or broken windshield is problematic (though I do have full windshield coverage in my insurance). I could always get a big enough pop-up tent and then set it up around the car, but it would have to be tied to the ground pretty damn good so it doesn't blow over and away.

Well into the 40s in S NH, but mid 30s up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those 50's and 60's advertised earlier this week will not happen up here it seems. Not atypical for NNE in early spring - it's where warm fronts go to die. Takes serious oomph to get real warmth here before mid-April (or later.) Not every year is like 2010 or 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way am I hitting 51F today These mesoscale (sometimes even microscale) things must be a tough read. Nine years go I watched an early April wind shift (as the SW flow overcame the sea breeze) on the Fore River, and it kicked the PWM temp from 59 to 84 in 15 minutes. Be a long time before folks can forecast that kind of event, especially the timing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sound like Kevin right now, but that’s what I have to communicate, how the weather changes. When people go to sporting events in the morning and it’s 41 and cloudy, they’ll Start with the ole “they said it would be sunny and warm today.” When it doesn’t warm up until 4pm that’s when the “I wish I could be wrong at my job” comments start. In fairness maybe they said that on tonight’s broadcast, but I didn’t catch anything about tomorrow’s weather north of the pike, this morning. We shall see. Maybe this warm front blasts north, but I have doubts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
