so far just rain and hanging around 34-35 degrees, I'm on the eastern side of Dallas, the ice has been so far more over towards Fort Worth
Its sleet where its frozen, warm nose is killing any snow
The last time March had enough snow to excite Brick was 2009: 3.2". Brick has very high standards.

Good Lord,
I'd settle for a few more nights in the 40's, at this point. 1º shy from tying another record today and it's still warming up outside ...
Wow your car thermometer is bit off as most are. I show the current temp there at 79 which is still extreme for this time of year. Seems like when you changed your pic nothing but torch weather has been around. Maybe you should consider changing it to something different lol.

You said snow of “any significance” so Any snow in March. Sorry, you were asking about March super storms? Significant March snowfall? What’s your question here

I thought the snow last March was relatively solid all things considered

I think the NWS station here might have broken a record. I had 83 at home and that is in a cool spot. I heard 86 on the radio and it was hot in the sun.
I'm so unready for this.
ETA: Yep, new record high there, and it wasn't even close.

Me too. If ATL doesn't officially get anything over 3.5 or over 4+ inches in a single storm, I'm usually disappointed. I think the last 4+ officially was in 2011. Seems like forever
Your standards are set way too high.

Wow you are setting yourself up for disappointment every year at that rate. A good storm here for me is about 2 inches, and we get tons of them up here. Most years we get a nice storm around that magnitude to a bit less.
It's February and I'm griping because my split unit is down because it needs new contacts to use AC. That isn't right....

So much for “ ignoring “ the SE ridge, it’s overdone, when it started showing up on models in January! Turns out to be strongest in decades! That’s how we win at winter!

Right? I’ve gone 3 straight years at one point without seeing even a 3 inch snow storm.

It's the strongest we've ever seen at this time of the year or in the entirety of winter, spring and even early summer for that matter in at least the last several decades. In fact if this ridge was in place during the middle of summer it would still rank inside the 95-99th percentile since the satellite era began.

Amazing stuff, Webb.
Thanks!
Knocking it down a notch to real life, it's friggin' miserable.
