I was in Bristol, R.I. last night and the fog literally rolled in while I was walking around.  Was mysterious and creepy.

Too bad you didn't encounter Adrian Barbeau walking around in that Fog....

 

Those old enough to remember the First movie of "The Fog"  would know who she is....was a looker back in the 70's and early 80's.

Well... we've gone and done it again ..  Despite this, 

"Globally, this was the second warmest March in the 140-year record, with a temperature departure from average at +1.06°C (+1.91°F). Only March 2016 was warmer at +1.24°C (+2.23°F). March 2019 also marks the third time (2016, 2017, and 2019) that the March global land and ocean surface temperature departure from average surpasses 1.0°C (1.8°F). The March 2019 global land and ocean temperature tied with January 2016 as the fifth highest monthly temperature departure from average for any month on record (1671 months). The 20 highest monthly temperature departures from average have all occurred since 2015, with March 2016 having the highest monthly temperature departure in the 1671-month record at +1.24°C (+2.23°F)." 

If you focus on the middle latitude regions of U.S./southern Canada ... there is a relative cool offset result/heat sink:

Some 2/3rds of the monthly results stemming back almost 20 years worth have demonstrated a relative negative in the vicinity ... This has at times been more sensible/meaningful...other times, less so. But, 2/3rds is a substantial majority...  

It seems that in this GW era ... there is an emergent tendency to make N/A a kind of dumping ground.  There have been offset hot periods, too... 2/3rds is not 1/1 ...  But for some reason... over the last couple of decades of this apparent acceleration of the GW observation, this has not been evenly distributing;  less expression of warm departures compared to other areas of the worlds locally.  

If March seemed chillier than a Globally Warmed world, there might be some at least minimal empirical data to support that.    Here's the thing ... March could have been + at all major climo sites and still been "blue" relative to the whole.  That's the rub here in how this "missing out" aspect has been playing - we really are not missing out much ( or may not be ); still, I wonder when we'll get a crimson paint month if ever from the GL to NE...

 Yeah, NW MA  has been decent the past few weeks despite some rainy days.

It's definitely been worse in the last few years.  Yesterday/Easter sucked here...cool, damp and wet(54 degrees-it actually was dropping all afternoon here yesterday) until 6:00 pm...then the sun came out, but it was too little too late. 

Saturday it poured most all day..but was muggy and mild.  But we've had some decent days in the upper 60's to the Upper 70's too, so definitely not all that bad, and has been a lot worse in the previous few years.
