April 2022 (April 2008/2011 redux)

[AlTahoe]

April 1st snow survey today came back with 4% of normal which ties 2015 as worst ever. Only 2.5" of snow on the ground at 7k. We were at 156% of normal Jan 1st.

January of 2012 was lovely. 

Pretty boring down here. I'd much rather have a 2017 January.

Last night’s Tornado confirmed by NWS today. First March tornado since…2011.

ANALOG?

I know of the biggest tornadoes that year, but how was Kentucky during all that?

Was a big year out there as well IIRC. I remember several tornado watches going up on that side of the apps in the span of a month or two.

My specific location actually got screwed that year despite it being a huge season for the region. One of those fluky things.

Monday will bring some fun clouds. Might have to venture somewhere with a view that day

That is equally as impressive as it is concerning. From a wonderful season to an entirely new territory of dryness.

Looking up March 2011. Check this one out, same date as one just over a week ago that hit Ohio. This actually included my area though.

Poipu is our favorite spot.   

Kalapaki Joe's has a spectacular happy hour.  Are you staying at Kiahuna Plantation by any chance?

Wow. My god.

Though we did see some issues back in December for its rather…generous…marginal setups. Andrew and Tim will be fine.

[Meatyorologist]

EPS holding strong

[smerfylicious]

Wow any shot of El Nino has been kicked to late fall/early winter. Maybe we won't be a BBQ this summer?

Now if only I could get my bilberries to germinate...any suggestions Tim?

Another nice morning here. 44 degrees with clouds and sun. Was hoping for a bit more rain last night but it sounds like there’s a good amount on the way.
