dWave Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 26 minutes ago, qg_omega said: So easy these days for record highs and not by small margins This is very true..but it's worth noting the records for today were on the lower side. For Central Park today was one of the very few days this late with a record high below 70. Record highs in the 60s start fading away by late Feb, and they are just about gone by this point...but obviously there are couple hanging on, i.e today.

Obviously the park was low, first Feb event 5.5” while the park was 3.2” for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2nd part is true-it doesn't save any costs on electricity. The first part is a problem you'd have 8:20 sunrises here and 9:20am in the western ends of each time zone in Dec-Jan. Not happening.

BlizzLuv Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Went for a long bicycle ride today and my wife and I went to the park for a walk. People were out en masse and gorgeous skies. So nice after 5 hours on the road in rain yesterday. Frogs are croaking everywhere. Starting to think it is time to take the snow thrower to the basement until Nov/Dec. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No allergies, no winds, low humidity and clear blue skies from horizon to horizon! If we ever start regulating weather, it should be like this 6 days out of 7. Let it rain on each 7th day.

But even in Ohio people support not changing the clocks. But even so I don’t get why people are so worried about morning daylight. The evening commute is just as important and statistically more people are out for the evening commute. People always talk about students going to school in the dark, well they already do all winter here. High school busses start picking up before 6AM where I am. Those students already go to school in the dark basically the whole school year. We didn’t even have a Federal standard for it until 1967 and we have moved it multiple times. I would okay with going back to the old way the first Sunday in April to the last Sunday in October. But we’ll see what happens in the future as the “Sunshine Protection Act” was passed by the Senate but not the House. I honestly don’t see it changing anytime soon, but it is worth thinking about permanent DST or EST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

House never took up permanent DST due to the morning issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a difference between needing a jacket and whether the pattern is warm or cold for this time of year. Most days we’ll need a jacket even it’s +10 since it’s only March. The means do a good job at showing the warmth. As for frozen precip, very unlikely coastal sections see much next few weeks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
