This spring is a gem compared to a lot of springs, period.  In fact strike that - most springs.

Of course it all depends ( subjectively ) on what one considers 'bad' vs 'good' .   But going by the leading sane consensus ... bad = cold and wet. 

You guys have a charmed existence this year. Not bad ...hahaha  Some of y'all need to suffer reality about as badly as it has not been. Perhaps then you'll appreciate how good it's actually been ... so far.

There are years when it's 80 early and often and those are like 1 :: 20 year seasons...  70s early and often perhaps 1 :: 7 or 1 :: 10

The rest of those years divvy up between 40s, 50s, with cold water. 

Placing this one in that rank it's probably a 1 :: 5 year as far as crippling persistent in sucktitudes as to challenge the very endurance of man ...  

Part of the problem about New England sore-butt season is that it's ever nice at all?   I mean, if it was low tide cool and clammy all the time and never deviated... we'd probably actually grow so accustomed to it that we're fine.   But we'll pop 74 ... 77 ... 82 ... BD and get ass wrecked for 10 straight days...  and the set up makes the latter prospect utterly terrifying.

As of 10 pm, Boston had picked up 2.02" rain. That sets a new daily precipitation record for April 22. The old record was 1.89", which was set in 1937. Today's rainfall is also Boston's highly daily precipitation figure since July 17, 2018 when 2.68" rain was recorded.

Only .26 here , first precip event in a very long time I dryslotted. Thank the lord its late April. Congrats Boston

We Spring here!  Forsythia just popped yesterday in town and today here. 

It's always interesting to me how that atmosphere seems to mirror the Labrador Current so often  -  ...  as illustrated by Steve's repost of the NAM 3-KM 2-m temperatures.

It's seen often enough to suggest in the on-going planetary physical machinery of all, a tendency for both fluid environments to move back SW around these ~ latitudes and longitudes.  Not all the time or at every time do they happen concurrently ... But as a kind of rest state, the LC flows back SW along the Maritime waters of eastern Canada ...terminating beneath the Gulf interface E of the Del Marva at all times; whereas, the atmosphere finds any way at least excuse imaginable to do the same thing... but often enough to be an indigenous trait of this region.  Both pile cold. Whether by sea, up against land. By air over the eastern New England dumpster. 

It just seems to be a topographic circumstance of our location that is a negative node for fluid systems - like being born with a learning disabillity and having to work extra hard to ever be as warm as the other kids... heh.
