0z lost it

It was fantasy

Some typical March weather ahead as we see consistent swings from cold to warmer to cold again for much of the rest of the month. We remain below normal today before warming up to above normal tomorrow through the weekend. WE then turn back to below normal to start the new work week. Our next rain chances arrive tomorrow night into Saturday morning and again Sunday night into Monday morning.

The wild swings in temps continue in March with 70s for SW of NYC & near 80 on Sunday out this way.

Have my doubts, lovely 36/21 and full clouds here at 1PM on 3/19. Just pain and sure clouds or east wind will cut back these highs by 10 or more at least here in NNJ. GFS for same general time ..

Pretty strong low-level southwesterly flow - usually warm air advection tends to over-perform expectations during the cold season when that happens.

LOL

NYC had it 75th day with a minimum of 32 or lower today...the most since 2014-15 and 15th most over the last 50 years...this year will end up as the fifth or sixth coldest snowiest winter over the last 50 years...

Bigly impressive after such a long stretch of lackluster seasons in a row.

When this was the global summary for December through February:

And that's against the warmest 30 year average 1991-2020.

Getting cold to land over you is like playing Russian Roulette in reverse.

We got "shot" this winter.

Today was my 97th day where my temperature was 32 ot lower for the minimum. I want to get three more days to get to 100.

105 today in Phoenix

Nice track but no cold air

Awful month

Not even an inch

I don't think I've ever seen so many monthly records broken at once on this map

Happy Spring Equinox at 10:46am to those that celebrate! Some folks think this means we have equal amounts of day and night lengths. While those are not far too far apart today (Sunrise 707am /Sunset 7:15pm) it in fact is when the Sun crosses the celestial equator. Five of our last 6 days have featured below normal temperatures but we will see temperatures well above normal today with highs near 60 degrees. We stay mild through the weekend with rain chances ramping up tonight and again on Sunday night. We turn sharply chillier again toward the middle of next week.

Today back in 1958 the area was in the middle of the 2nd greatest snowstorm in Pennsylvania history. Below are the all-time 3 day snowstorms across our state. The top 2 storms both were in our local area with the Blizzard of February 1899 at Coatesville with 52.4" and the 50.0" just off the PA Turnpike at Morgantown leading the way. Of note that same storm in 1958 also featured the 49" that was recorded just off the PA Turnpike at Devault. I have also included the hand written NWS COOP March 1958 observations for both Morgantown and Devault.

a parting shot?...April snows are just for the moment except for 1982 and a few other years...
