March in Review

Average temp was 0.6″ above normal. Month’s high 82° (3/31), low 9° (3/6).
The SnowDome died. In all, we saw 2.9″ of snow, most in March since 1996.
Total rainfall 4.29″, which was 0.18″ above normal.
Probably the most unusual thing: March begins spring storm season, but there were no thunderstorms.

Saw this from @JimCantore, who got it from @julieverhage: March productivity took a hit.

Tonight – Cloudy & Some Showers

We’ll remain cloudy tonight. Rain chances will linger throughout the night, though showers will be hit-or-miss. Here’s the NAM4 model at 9 PM: read more
