Still in 30's here at 3:35 pm with clouds and fog/haze. E wind. Was 28.0 overnight, now 38.8/33.9. NWS backtracked all day again, forecast was 47, then 44 now 40 lol. 

It has been cold!   Forecasted high from NWS was 46. Actual high was 41!!!! This is 5 degrees colder than normal.

Made it to 44° this afternoon.  MRB was -2.8 for the month before today.  That negative departure is gonna take a beating the last 4 days of the month, but we should end up -0.5 to -1.0.

Got some rocky biking in over at the 'shed.  Trail was mostly dry aside from standard winter, low sun angle slick spots.

High was 39.0, down to 37.7/35.5 with rain now. So I ended up 8 degrees colder than the forecast from 7 am this morning.

.48 so far. I think 2" by Monday is doable. Bring it! We need the wetlands and ponds to fill up.

Exactly! You nailed it. I just didn't want to get shit for being excited to walk on the wetlands and ponds. Shhhhh.. safety police are watching lol

Imby Columbia 0.55” thru 10am Saturday. 

[wxdude64]

0.30 at the 7 am CoCoRaHS report, looks like another .10 or so since. Temps that were stuck in 30's all day yesterday, overnight and early this morning have pushed up to 41.1 at 11 am as the sun is trying to peek through the clouds.

[T. August]

Up to .75” in Havre de Grace.

[wxdude64]

NWS did a MUCH better job today, the sun pushed thru clouds this afternoon for a brief time (as forecasted possible) and we zoomed up to 52.0 degrees around 4:30 pm. They called for a 53 high, good call. Currently 48.9/46.7 at 5:45 pm. I like to give kudos when a job is well done since I do rip (as I did yesterday) when a huge fail happens.

We may be HECS hunting, but we still are #1 at effortless torches 

[Terpeast]

First obs from my own ambient station:

Warm and windy.

.90” the last couple of days and 3.70” for the month. If the breeze picks up and dries things out a little, I can get a mowing in to get the last of the leaves and level out the grass before next week’s snow.

[EastCoast NPZ]

Good grief it's warm and humid.  Gross.

mid 60s - pulled out the inflatable bouncy house for the kids this morning.  Guess we should take advantage of the next two days - might be a few weeks before we see 60s again.
