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 ... :mad:

I've got 86 showing up on my car thermometer here in Laurens SC

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.

What do you call significant? I don't recall seeing any snow in March the last two years.

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

More than some flurries or a dusting.

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

Clayton, you need to move.

On another note, a record high of 84 here today.

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.

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!:mad:

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.

Im just glad the sun will finally make an appearance again on Sunday. I swear this has been the cloudiest month in my entire life.

Yeah?
Not buying it.
Where the heck is (would be) cold coming from?
For anyone wondering about those 2 years ...

Sure, the composite Febs were warm for those 2 years, but now, today, where and when we live ... where the heck would cold air come from?

Maybe London will share!?
 
I usually don't complain about the weather because we cannot do a thing about it. BUT JESUS, this had been about the worst 20+ days I have even seen in Atlanta or SE in any winter as far as warmth and boredom.
 
For some January was as much below normal as February is above normal. I guess you take the bad with the good. I've had 13 days this year that we did not get above freezing. We also hit zero twice. This month has sucked but it could have been much worse without January. Heck the first half of February was below normal here.
 
Malevolent March incoming....
Snow for everybody N of I-20!
