Hurricane Agnes Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Finally heard something akin to a gust front come through, but the rain has been pretty minimal. Before the latest round, I had 0.23" (+ 0.09" from yesterday for 2-day 0.32). Currently have 0.29" in the bucket for today with some light rain. Temp is currently 53 with dp 50, so the colder air hasn't arrived yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikeymac5306 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 What a difference a day makes! 28 and blustery this morning. Wind was rattling the windows quite a bit overnight. Not sure what the 6Z GFS is smoking this morning. Trying to replicate 1993 Miller B style without any cold air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Today we end the winter months of December, January and February. While this year has been very warm it is actually almost a degree cooler than last winter. The warmest winter ever was way back in 1931/32 with an average temp of 39.51 degrees. Of note in our current warm cycle we have recorded 7 of the top 10 warmest DJF periods all just since the year 2000!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTA66 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 May as well issue my final winter grade today. Only a March '58 redux could get me to change my score... C Pros: It snowed. We had junk & stuff to track. We had snow on snow. I was under two winter storm warnings (although only one verified). It was better than last year (which isn't saying much). Cons: Winter was reduced to two, one-week stretches. Other than that it was another long November. Strong Nino, -QBO and this was the best we could do?? There should have been at least one MECS. And where were the nor'easters? It wasn't a dry winter. It started off with those heavy rainstorms in Dec...and then?? Not to steal drought-guy's act but I was certain we'd get our fair share of coastals with wind, beach erosion, watches/warning/advisories, etc. Whether they would be wet or white was the only question. At least 1982-83 and 2015-16 were one-hit wonders. Final thought: Time to toss SSWE's in the trash bin. They're as useful as Siberian snow cover. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't really reflect historically what we would expect given the phase. Another overrated/understudied tool wrt east coast winter weather. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Wiggum Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Winter theme items taken down around the house today, St Patrick's flag flying now in lieu of the "Let it Snow" flag of the last 3 months. And right on script, the first Daffodil bud of the season popped as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Reilly Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 When you know you know! You know it is over when you see this! .BLIZZARD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 10 AM PST SUNDAY... * WHAT...Blizzard conditions likely, particularly through Saturday morning. There is a 10-20% chance of thunderstorms along the crest through this evening with snowfall rates of 4 to 6 inches per hour at times. Snow accumulations between 3 and 6 feet for Lake Tahoe communities, with 6 to 10 feet above 7000 feet. Winds gusting to 70 mph in lower elevations and above 115 mph over Sierra ridges with significant drifting of snow. * WHERE...Greater Lake Tahoe Area. * WHEN...Until 10 AM PST Sunday. * IMPACTS...Whiteout conditions with near zero visibility at times due to blowing snow. The strong winds and weight of snow on tree limbs may down power lines and could cause sporadic power outages. Travel will be treacherous and potentially life-threatening. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... A Blizzard Warning means severe winter weather conditions are expected or occurring. Falling and blowing snow with strong winds are likely. This will lead to whiteout conditions, making travel extremely dangerous. Do not travel. If you must travel, have a winter survival kit with you. If you get stranded, stay in your vehicle.

Alll normal everyday stuff no worries: 12 feet + of snow in Sierra Nevada after 5 Years of no snow Raging fires and 90 degrees + in Late February all normal stuff. Being Sarcastic obviously there is an obvious problem in climate in my opinion and most of it is fueled by warm ocean water temps and air temps especially the Pacific Ocean. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Wiggum Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Just saw on my Google New feed headline that Philadelphia is bracing for a major late season snowfall next weekend. Can one of you fine folks please clue me in on what I might have missed? Thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
