Birds~69 Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Think the winds are howling stronger now than anytime today and consistently... 33F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted March 15, 2023 Author Share Posted March 15, 2023 My high yesterday ended up being 39 after most of the precip ended after 2:30 pm (with nothing really measurable than maybe the 0.1" brief dusting). The low was 33 this morning and it's currently not much warmer at 35 with dp 22. The frontal passage definitely hit on the dps. The winds have been fierce as well. When I had to step out front yesterday to grab a delivery that had just been dropped off, I had to struggle with the door just to get out there.

RedSky Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Going forward it looks like more sun then none over the next week plus, and a more significant stretch of early spring mildness after Monday following the well below normal weekend. If next weeks system can miss to the south that would be a huge plus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what's amazing is that it's been well below normal out here in Phoenix about 75% of all days since November 5th. I was hoping to revel (and gloat to friends/family) about the nice winter weather, and how I was (not) missing all the snow and cold back east. That worked out well... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same cool Pacific trough and atmospheric river caused the clouds in the northeast and low snow amounts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Agnes Posted March 16, 2023 Author Share Posted March 16, 2023 Well the overcast hung on all morning and the sun struggled mightily but has now finally come out, with the cloud deck clearing. Bottomed out at 34 and am currently at 51 with a dp that has finally trudged back into the 20s at 23, after going as low as 5 sometime just after midnight, and slowly recovering the rest of the morning.

RedSky Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 All I want to know now is when does the colder than average pattern initiated by the February SSWE end. Constant cold dumps delaying the onset of spring after total garbage winter suck in my book, no end showing as yet through the end of March. If it continues deep into April 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was worse than a wooden roller coaster with rusty tracks and no brakes. Seriously, how many times did guidance show a hit at day 9-10 then morphed from a good cold pattern to above average crud as it approached? Good riddance to whatever that season was that we just experienced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it continues deep into April CFS says next October we get to bask in the warmth of the Autumn sun under the influence of the exact same pattern we just endured since November. If this pattern repeats again entering next fall with signs it lasts into winter I'm buying a one-way ticket on Musk's Space X orbit tour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted March 19, 2023 Author Share Posted March 19, 2023 Well made it up to 54 yesterday after a low of 40 and 0.02" of rain but after the front came through overnight, it's a whole different story this morning. The bottom fell out and I am currently partly sunny and finally ticked up to 27 from a low of 26 with dp 7 (where it had gone as low as 5). One of my late-blooming lilacs ("Miss Kim") had sprouted some leaves all up and down the branches and am hoping that those leaves survive despite the temp being under the "hard freeze" temp of 28. That lilac is 25 years old so it has seen it all, but still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
