DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 18-22)
High pressure brings dry weather but below normal temperatures today, though wind will be much lighter than yesterday as the high center moves overhead. The high will slip off to the east Thursday with continued fair weather but a few more clouds and a temperature moderation. A weak low pressure system will pass to our north Thursday night and early Friday, its weak cold front coming through early Friday with maybe a brief shower of light rain or snow. Another system approaches later Friday and passes by that night into early Saturday. Milder air in place at that time means any precipitation will likely all as rain, but this will be a minor impact system. A cold front will cross the region Saturday night into Sunday with another rain shower chance, introducing more wind and a shot of colder air for on Sunday.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 35-42. Wind W up to 10 MPH becoming variable.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 22-29. Wind variable to S up to 10 MPH.
THURSDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 42-49. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Lows 33-40. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Mostly cloudy. A brief snow shower possible early. Highs 45-52. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Chance of rain overnight. Lows 38-45. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY: Cloudy with a chance of rain early, then a sun / cloud mix. Highs 50-57. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Partly to mostly cloudy. Chance of rain showers overnight. Lows 40-47. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy to partly sunny. Chance of rain showers until midday. Highs 48-55 but may fall in the afternoon. Wind NW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.
DAYS 6-10 (MARCH 23-27)
Brief rain / mix chance later March 24 and / or early March 25, and another chance of some precipitation toward the end of the period, otherwise dry weather with near to below normal temperatures.
DAYS 11-15 (MARCH 28 – APRIL 1)
Overall pattern looks mostly dry and on the cooler side of normal with one brief interruption from a passing disturbance or storm system, favoring later in the period.
Thanks TK.
Thanks, TK!
Thanks TK !
Wordle: 4
Too cold, unacceptable ! 🙂 🙂 🙂
How the BLEEP in the world did you get this word in 4?????
I am HOPELESSLY lost and clueless after 4 guesses. So much so, this might be the word that puts an END to my play!!!!!
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!
I have put it aside. Not when/IF I will come back to it.
Noooooo please don’t stop. It was a hard word for me too
PHEW 6
Welcome aboard the Caboose!!! LET’S PARTY HARD!!!!
Really nice 4. I struggled with this one
Good morning and thank you TK
27 now after low of 25
Ocean: 38
WORDLE: ???????????????????????????????????!@#*(!@*#(*!@#()*!@()#*!()@*()
This must be a golf term that I’m not familiar with:
???????????????????????????????????!@#*(!@*#(*!@#()*!@()#*!()@*()
🙂
I’ll join Tom in the ParCar with a 4.
That term is AH SHIT, I hit it into the WOODS again!!!!!
Hehe!
I’ll have to look up how to pronounce it properly. 🙂
Great 4 and you both have me laughing out loud.
Personally, I agree with JpD
Got Wordle in 6!!! A real PHEW for sure!!!!!
On my 5th guess, I had to use a word that couldn’t possibly be it and used letters NOT in the word, but I needed another letter
and got one. Then I had 4 letters and I knew the position of all those 4. So, finally I was able to solve. I HATE when I slip down the rabbit hole with no clue!!!!!!
You got it!
That seems like an odd word when I look at it. I don’t think I’ve ever really used it.
Agree. The word sounds wrong when I say it.
Nah, now that I see it, I have seen that word used often. Not sure I have used it, but I think so.
I just NEVER saw it till the very end!!!!
Perfect. I’ll bring danish.
Thank you, TK. Up to 23 from a 20 low.
BRRRRR
YAY!!!! Trout stocking has commenced!!!
https://ibb.co/9mBm0L3j
6 out of about 450 locations have been completed. Just a little way to go yet. 🙂
Ah, one of those look like Myles Standish.
I think it took til Monday night’s warm rainstorm to de-ice all the fresh water lakes/ponds, so I’ll be the number of stocked really ramps up in the next 7-10 days.
Thanks. I agree.
6Z GFS still has some Winter shenanigans up its sleeve!

Wordle 4. Tough one but got there mostly because I couldn’t think of anything that fit!
Great job!
Yeah, that kind of describes what I went through.
After 2 guesses, I had a letter in the right place, 1 in the wrong place and had 8 letters I couldn’t use anymore.
In this unique case, not everything that was left could have worked with what was in the right place and the other letter I had.
Thus, my third guess got all of the first 4 letters in the right spot and then, I needed to still look for a while and thankfully the guess on the last letter took for a 4.
Thank you TK!
Wordle: Looks like I am riding solo for now in the 5 car. I may slip into the caboose with the fun kids.
Please feel free to join us. 🙂
Oh, okay… 🙁
It’s just that I thought we were fun kids in the Par-4-Car…
Maybe we should all join Sue in the 5 car 😀
Maybe when we make the train we ALL should meet in the PAR-LOR car.
LOL, you absolutely are fun kids in the Par-4 Car. I just figured I was allowed to demote myself but not promote to a higher car. 🙂
Oh – wait. Are we supposed to be driving the train?
Waiting for a 3 or better. 🙂
Nice 5. And that Sounds perfect to me.
For March 18th, tis a pretty CHILLY DAY!!!!!!
Still winter for today and tomorrow! lol
14 years ago today was quite warm. Our two oldest grandchildren were playing outdoors in a water table while we waited for the arrival of our third grandchild (and second granddaughter).
Wordle: 3 (in case you’re curious about my progression… spoilers: https://ibb.co/C316zPPY )
Some pictures from my morning run:

It was awfully cold out. Real feel was 9 degrees. Plenty of random pools of ice. It was fun randomly crunching some of the thin ice and making a glass shattering sound lol
The crunchy ice (not sure if this link will work): https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1099565184391065651/1483820279997268028/IMG_4454.mov?ex=69bbfad2&is=69baa952&hm=f746351b9b1a1086568f7fac3daed4ca9fe9a040dad496ae3401d9736dc18dff&
Link didn’t open an image or video, however, it did allow a download and opening the file did reveal a cool video.
Nice crunch sound there!!!! So just a frozen puddle, right?
Very Well done!!!!
Great job on Wordle. You saved us from being driven by the ParCar!
Fantastic 3!!!
Thanks TK
According to the 12Z GFS, Winter isn’t quite done with us!!!
I SAY NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

I think the ensembles may be sued for lack of support.
it’s the GFS 2 weeks out. I say it’s a lock.
Of course it is a lock. I kept my snow shovel out for a reason. 🙂
Judah was all over this today. He really wants one more. He admitted it. The X post was kind of funny, actually.
ECMWF’s operational simulations are improving while the GFS’s are going back into the crap tank.
He he he
Nice play all. I’m in the 5 car….humphrey (bogey!)
Glad to make the train today.
So the thing lately is for mainstream media to really jack up the hype of all different things going on at the same time.
I have news. This is known as MARCH! It’s ALWAYS BEEN KNOWN AS MARCH! This earns a super duper GOOD GRIEF today which is going to become as popular as Dave’s Holy Crap Batman before too long!
March. Is. The. MOST VOLATILE MONTH. Always has been.
Lay off the sensationalism media!
Ok I feel better now. 🙂
BTW, a word about the actual weather pattern. Stable pattern. Meaning it doesn’t change that much. Trough / chilly Northeast. Big ridge, warm to hot Southwest. MJO dawdling around phase 7/8 is one of the reasons for this.
I told y’all it was possibly going to wake up sometime in late February or March in 7, 8, eventually 1, 2. Yep. It’s happening. Along with one more PV stretch. That’s a recipe for a stable but pretty dynamic pattern if you ask me!
