  1. Cocky jogger guy reminds me a lot of overconfident big truck snow driver guy. There's always these idiots here who seem to think snow is an invitation/challenge to drive much faster than everyone else on the highway. "It's just a little snow, not gonna let it slow me down like you p*ssies. Cuz I got this big truck with big tires and an even bigger ego!!" These are usually the guys who end up in a ditch.
  2. Yeah, despite the big ridgy torch in the middle, it's looking like this month will end up pretty normalish for most of the lowlands.
  3. At face value, the Euro has been looking pretty reasonable. One or two warm days in the 8-10 day range, but nothing crazy.
  4. Montana and most of the West had a warmer than normal winter in 2019-20. But, that was followed by a much cooler late winter/early spring.
  5. I think this is what you're looking for. Definitely not cooler than normal the past 6 months across the West.
  6. Looks like MSP ended up with over 8" yesterday. Turned to rain this morning, though. From a negative departure perspective, the past week has been the most wintry period of the season for the Upper Midwest, apart from that crazy week in January. As far as major metros in the U.S. go, only Minneapolis could have 9 straight days below 20 degrees and still pull off a blowtorch +6 month.
  7. Picked up 5" of dry powder last night (as opposed to the 15" of wet concrete a week and a half ago). Up to 22" for March, 54" on the season.
  8. When climbing 14ers here, the general rule of thumb is you want to summit by 11 or so. Risk of thunderstorms often rapidly increases from that point on in the summer.
  9. SEA clinging desperately to a negative monthly departure!
  10. Just based on those pics, I'd guess he got a nice 9-10" dump there.
  11. I had the same thing happen twice in my life, except both times I ended up passing out briefly. The first time was junior year of high school, I ended up waking up face down on the classroom floor with the teacher shaking me. A bit mortifying and definitely scary.
  12. For OLM, 2021, 2015, 1967, and 1958 were all hotter. Probably missing one or two others.
  13. They were actually favored. Weird for a #11 seed, but apparently correct!
  14. The last vestiges of your love are fading...
  15. Not if models are right for the rest of the month.
  16. And Jim disappears again...we're getting close to the time that he often takes off until late summer.
  17. Bloomage here almost always happens late April/early May, regardless of weather.
  18. This is certainly a possible tornadic setup for the plains/Midwest in 8 days.
  19. Have Nino to Ninas typically been very active? I know Nina springs in general tend to see more severe weather mid continent.
