He had made mention that the rain could linger from Sunday into Monday...... even Gil Simmons on WTNH mentioned Sunday night to Monday with a possibility of some sleet or freezing rain.... So it was mentioned this morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Average high for BDL is around 50 and they're at 44. Average high for BTV is 44 and they at 35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Data is just that...it is data and doesn't account for personal opinion or feeling. If this March at station x turns out to be +15 for the month and that same station was +15 in 2012, well then this month was just anomalous at that location, regardless of how the +15 resulted. Today is below-average across the region, however, when looking at it from a sensible approach, some people may find today rather decent, especially with the stronger sun angle. Some people may find today pretty lousy with the chilly wind and colder feel in the shade. But regardless of what one thinks, it doesn't change the fact that today is below-average for where we should be. Bullshit. Let's play a game. What if a month in summer is normal but dews were in the upper 60s and 70s every day. Would you remember it as a normal summer month or a hot one. Sensible matters otherwise you wouldn't have heat index and wind chill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody remembers summer heat. 88 or 100 is hot. People can’t tell the difference. What they do remember is cold and snowy winters. Unfortunately those don’t happen anymore… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But regardless of what one thinks, it doesn't change the fact that today is below-average for where we should be. I'm not going to argue that March 2024 hasn't departed way to the warm side (because it has so far and most certainly will end that way), but I'm not sure I necessarily agree with the bolded text. Take a hypothetical (admittedly extreme) scenario where the first half of March is departed -30 degrees, and the last half, +30 degrees. If you've binned the data by the month, you'd end up with a mean departure of 0 degrees. However, the statement, "March had a mean temperature that did not depart from the historical mean, therefore the temperature for the month of March was not anomalous, historically.", seems fundamentally untrue. You had crazy temperature swings and record breaking periods of hot and cold! You just don't see that at a monthly resolution. To produce a mean you have to bin the data in some timeframe though, and I guess monthly makes just as much sense as any other timeframe. I guess what I'm saying is that using mean temperature as a hard descriptor of how anomalous a month was temperature-wise is unsound. Or kinda pointless, I dunno. Shit, this is really just semantics I guess. Anyway, I'm not a met, just a dumbass, so, two cents, yadda yadda. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are speaking of daily temps in general, which encompasses night time lows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my hypothetical scenario the first half is departed on average by minus 30 degrees, and the last half, by plus 30. An extreme example, but this includes avg temp for the whole 24 hour day. I'm not talking max or min averages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously we will probably need be up somewhere around +5 for highs after this chilly week ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Through conversations with many people I've heard them recall years or summers which had sweltering heat. People are going to remember what was most impactful to them or what was engraved in their brain by media. Instances of cold and/or alot of snow or periods of high heat/humidity are phenomena which will sit in people's minds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 1 hour ago, Sey-Mour Snow said: In other news besides the well above average day time highs this Match we’ve had so far similar to the first half of March 2012… Minnesota looks to have potential for an all time snowstorm late this weekend. It's unlikely survive the relay from mid into shorter range based on model history. That area geography up there has it even worse than we do with mid range 'big deal' verification. we'll see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
