Ugh Hard to take when my father in coastal NC has been in the 80’s and out on the boat and golfing. My kid runs track and there’s been one meet so far that’s not been 48-52 and drizzle. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I guess 6,000ft is still up there… but even if MWN got a cold, dry 26” in 24 hours it would be note-worthy. Yeah I saw. That was the central sierra snow lab’s snowiest day of the season with 26+”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdxken Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Spring blows. Enjoy Tuesday. " Aside from scattered rain chances later this week, temperatures will be stuck below to well below normal thanks to aforementioned stalled front and very persistent onshore flow. Temps will be stuck in the 50s most days across the eastern half of the CWA. Frontal boundary placement will make temperature forecasting a bit tricky for CT and western MA, where there are few opportunities late week for temps to climb into the 60s in that region. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure for his area. It was dry here until 2:00. Cool with a high of 50.7, but if you needed to get lawn stuff done most of the day was dry in CT. SW CT started earlier .

weatherwiz Posted May 6 Author Share Posted May 6 1 hour ago, powderfreak said: Yeah pretty impressive compact ULL swinging perfectly into the central Sierra. The GFS nailed this. The Euro (at least earlier in the week) swung the ULL moreso across WA/OR and ID while the GFS dug into CA. Not sure how the Euro performed with it over the last few days. I'm sure it caught on eventually. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or enjoy spring if you want that too. Some aerial shots of Stowe/Mansfield from a couple days ago. Plenty of coverage for 2,000 vertical feet on numerous runs if you want to earn some turns, which many of us have been doing. 33” of natural snow depth at the Co-Op Stake on the upper East side. Nosedive Glades and other woods shots on the Front still skiable. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianW Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 Great morning walk with the dog to take in the WAA and to smell all the blooms. Hopefully we clear out later. Temperatures jump 10 to 20 degrees compared to Sunday with ongoing WAA in the resulting SW flow, likely rebounding into the low to mid 70s away from the coast. Should more breaks in the cloud cover develop, temperatures inland could achieve mid to upper 70s. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthCoastMA Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 Northern half of Mass has some clearing going on..that should give temps a boost this AM. It's also nice to see the satellite imagery progressing west to east, as opposed to NE to SW. I know it's coming back to ruin the latter half of the week and weekend, but no other choice but to soak in the next two days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weekend's looking a bit better just cool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbenedet Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 To put some objectivity to our pessimism: this year, most in our subforum will have the landscape in a cold season state fall/winter >6 months; i.e, longer than a warm season spring/summer state. First week of November is only 6 months out…. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick-02540 Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 I remember reading a social psychology/anthropology article in graduate school about this type of persistent cool, damp, and overcast weather being the driving force for the expansion of the British empire. People can't tolerate this, and it is an impetus for relocation to warmer and drier areas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
