TimB Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 17 hours ago, TimB said: We’re on track for the 3/1 to 3/7 period to be our warmest first week of March ever. Today’s mean will likely come in around 54 or 55, tomorrow’s around 50 or 51 so this shouldn’t move much. God damnit, we’re going to get screwed out of our warmest first week of March ever because of these damn low clouds keeping us from getting into the upper 50s.

Don't worry. I am sure there will be plenty more record warmth to come. Even I've grown tired of the constant record warmth and taken a bit of a break despite that fact that various records continue to be approached or broken all over the place.

The record will be irrelevant as there’s no chance we’ll have the warmest March anyway. 2012 will stand for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
north pgh Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Am I the only one looking forward to a few snow squalls tomorrow? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burghblizz Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 I technically have this for tomorrow which is one of the more aggressively worded headlines all winter. I have to think though this is more intended for the northern half of the Butler County. Can’t see this being too great in Cranberry, but I wouldn’t mind some nice squalls.

Nope, I’m with you, hoping to see some heavy snow, even if it’s only brief. Gonna be cold and windy, might as well add some snow into the mix while it’s still possible.

CoraopolisWx Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Euro is showing sufficient 700mb moisture tomorrow. So we could have a similar setup to the previous two lake enhanced events. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt we see 2-4” in Evans city. Mostly 422/I-80 north most likely. Holding out hope for a few nice bands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rd9108 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Maybe a surprise tomorrow. I want a good freeze for a few days before spring just to kill some of these bugs. I'm seeing tons of bugs in my house already. It's too early to be seeing stink bugs and those annoying Japanese Beatles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitualOfTheTrout Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Well, didn't have to wait long, heavy snow. Light dusting on the ground. Expecting it to melt once it lets up, then a rinse and repeat of that throughout the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimB Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 That squall looked like it possibly nailed the airport and missed the NWS office. Typical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RitualOfTheTrout Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Fun day tracking squalls. Got hit several times, drove through a near whiteout around 430. Moderate snow again now, winds ripping aswell. Now that its dark starting to get some accumulation even on the road. Maybe close to half an inch since sunset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimB Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 0.4” at the official observing site still keeps us 0.4” short of 1973-74. Below are the current standings for the 10 worst winters in the 75 or so years that obs have been taken at (near?) the airport. I still think we can squeeze out a half inch during the upcoming cold period and avoid setting that record, but it seems it’d be a tall order to get out of the bottom 5, three of which have occurred in the past 5 winters.

CoraopolisWx Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Bit of a melancholy anniversary, with how these last two winters have been. This storm is starting to feel the way November 1950 used to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
