I had a 30°/39°F yesterday, today the low was 27.5°F. Beautiful day!

I had 43 yesterday... looks like NB got up to 48.    Certainly was cold this morning... but not as much frost as I expected given the dry air.

[SilverFallsAndrew]

We were 45/30 yesterday. Hit the low just before midnight, SLE did the same in terms of an 11:59 low. Always nice to get a 2 for 1. 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Joseph, OR hit -9 this morning. 

[Cascadia_Wx]

Hit a low of 26 here this morning one of the the colder lows I’ve seen this late

Up to 37 now. Ended up with a 49/32 day yesterday, midnight low 

[Cascadia_Wx]

Nice to see the GFS trend wetter again the last few runs 

Even the Sierras get in on the action inside of day 10

I tried to look up Lakeview but their airport isn't reporting temperatures.

KLMT only got to 14.

Record is 11, so pretty cold.

I also remember teens last year in March. Good that you haven't seen a torchy March in a handful of years. 

[SilverFallsAndrew]

Couple of record lows:

Eugene: 25 ties record from 1935

Redmond, OR: 5 breaks record of 9 from 2019

Also set a record low before midnight last night of 12 breaking the record of 13 set in 2009 and 2013.

You should change Phil’s username color to pink since he’s a east coast noob. 

For this, you get a tag.

Today in 2019 I had 6.2" inches of snow fall swiftly in a single morning! Schools in downtown KF closed, which is pretty rare for them. NWS only called for a couple inches in that storm. 

They typically don't close school in under 1 foot accumulations, so they probably just didn't plow key streets in time for the kids.

On the right morning near the Summer solstice you can see the first hints of orange around 3:20 or so. 48°N will do that to you 

Some people apparently want that to be 220AM.

Had 30 and freezing fog earlier this morning! 

Same here! I almost fell on my arse this AM.

Hilarious considering I just made a comment about never seeing fog in spring, then ma’ nature be like, watch me.

[Cascadia_Wx]

Euro coming in pretty wet and it’s moving more into the believable range for places that really need it. Gives EUG almost 3” rain in the next seven days. Even Chico, CA gets over an inch in that period

Too bad six hour obs aren’t reporting right now was curious if PDX managed to sneak down to 29

[Deweydog]

Could get a tad breezy Sunday morning!

Might be ferocious enough to blow an entire hour of sleep right off the map.

[TT-SEA]

A few trees starting bloom in North Bend... 

[Cascadia_Wx]

Great looking Euro run for precip and mountain snow

[GobBluth]

Some good late season action for California in the morning runs.

I’m in the second shade of grey! 

[Cascadia_Wx]

Active pattern

[bainbridgekid]

Both the Euro and GFS show about 4 feet of snow at Snoqualmie Pass in the next 10 days. Should be a nice long Spring skiing season if that comes close to happening.

[RentonHill]

Meltage last 7 days. Bushes in the bottom left dont waste any time.

[MossMan]

Thinking I might need to leave a little early today and convert my plow back into a mower and mow before the endless rains come!

Winter is over…Andrew called it a little early a month ago but it’s definitely over now. 

[TacomaWaWx]

47 and mostly sunny after a low of 27 this morning. Should end up being a pretty decent diurnal range.

Still winter here until about mid-April. 

[Phishy Wx]

winter feels done, imo in the valleys at least.

although it does feel like a year we would have a freak late season snow storm in late April

Winter's last breath? There are differing numbers but I think the 2-4 inches in NE KY Euro is showing could be closer to reality. Generally southeast section of the state has been getting more snow than my part of the area. A good chance Ashland doesn't see the higher end of the spectrum on snowfall as that hasn't been the case so far in previous storms. I bet the higher elevations and less populated towns get around 8" or over. 

Snow is never done in March. These days it’s a vastly more reliable winter month than December.

Sometimes April is too.

We will be due for an April 2008 redux in about 20 years. 

[Deweydog]

I too have a feeling winter has, is or will soon be over. Weird year.

[Deweydog]

The baseball lockout coming to an end is yet another sign that endless winter is unlikely this year.

That looks to soon change in a major way.

[Phil]

The LR EPS has notably improved vs 00z. Particularly at the 500mb level.

+Precip departures creeping south over the NE-Pacific and into NorCal. 

[Phil]

We’re about to say goodbye to the polar vortex until September.

(Note these are anoms at 10mb which don’t translate to the surface..IE there won’t be a giant ridge in western Canada).

 

[Prairiedog]

27f this am.  Daughter had -14f in  Laramie. 

Saw my first swallows today steelhead fishing.  Ospreys should be here by 1st of April.  Rufus hummers, any day.
