March 13Mar 13 With yesterday's 0.5" of snow, we have now recorded measurable snow in each of the last 5 months from November through March. This is the 6th time that has happened in the last 23 seasons here in East Nantmeal Township. While we have recorded measurable April snow 7 times since 2004 (including last April) we have never recorded snow in 6 consecutive months. No snow in our future at least till Monday night but below normal temperatures both today and tomorrow before near normal (low 50's) highs on Sunday. We warm briefly to well above normal Monday before a strong cold front crosses the area with some potential for severe weather and another potential change to some wet snow before ending on Monday night. Unseasonably cold weather through much of next week appears likely.
March 13Mar 13 The lake by my house still has about 1/3 of the one section (there are 2) iced over. Incredible after this anomalous torch.
March 13Mar 13 GFS looks damn cold for next 10 days at least... any warmup is very short-lived. Can we get March to be BN given the 3-day torch we just had?

PIT needs -8.3 for the rest of the month. Seems possible for NYC. Doubtful that happens for PIT.

March 13Mar 13 1 hour ago, Graupel said:This was actually very a very disappointing storm because after the front end foot of snow that turned to rain seemed that everybody was talking about the backlash and we could get another 8 to 12 inches and that number just kept on going down and down and down and down and in the end, all I had in Queens was a snow squall that dropped 1/10 of an inch of additional snow and then it froze. solid temperature went from 38 to 13 in about 60 minutes and cars were stuck in ice.
