Harry Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 1 hour ago, Chicago Storm said: We saw a similar period during the 1st half of March. During that period we saw a mix of mild (AA) and cool (BA) temps, with an average to above average active pattern. So all in all, this could be similar, just a solid month+ later in the year. Hopefully come May we can get some real consistent spring wx with temps in the 60s/70s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the beginning of last weeks “summer”, I told myself “we’ll be paying for this in a week”, well, here we are. Also last nights run of the GFS - no thanks, though it would be cool to see a foot a snow overnight in late April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chop 20 off that week and add +20 to this week I'd be happy. Annoying to go from low 80s to upper 30s. Rest of the month looks bleak. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get a foot+ then it would be hard not to enjoy. If it is going to be a 1-2" slop fest like last nights 1" of snow then no thanks. They snow cover would help to protect some of the plants at least 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yeah I am always up for a record worthy event which it would be via 06z GFS. 12z UK not far behind either. Still it's very low chance but something to track atleast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if any of that verifies it would end up being quite the event. I’d be down for some of that snow. Definitely worth my time that’s for sure, then have 80 degrees within a week after lol. Should bring some of the snow weenies out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda hard to pull off such a event around here especially in late April. May 9th 1923 says not impossible though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a decent first winter for me here. Ofcourse the Super clipper was the main event. Probably won't be another like that clipper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rainsucks Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 yeah, @RCNYILWX was right. Morch 2012 definitely ruined people’s perceptions of what a normal spring is supposed to look/feel like, lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only truly subpar winter in that stretch was 2011-12. Around here, 2012-13 had bad luck involved, and parts of the subforum ended up with solidly above normal snow.
