Not overly warm outside yet but it should warm up by the end of the week. At least up into the 50s, perhaps a 60 or two. That’s better. But the month of March really wasn’t a bad one this year. We’ve certainly had much, much worse ones.

Overcast overnight. Low 33. NNW winds 10 -15 mph.

Yesterday turned into a miserable day. Windy, cold misty rain. Very unpleasant. This morning at least doesn’t have the high wind blowing through but it is chilly out there. Should be warming up as the week progresses.

Currently 54 with an average wind from the W of 18 mph. Feels like 49 degrees. Dew Point 42, Humidity 62%. Barometer 29.45 & rising, Visibility 10 mi, Sunrise 7:28 am, Sunset 8:05 pm.

Clouds have been flying by high overhead all morning at an alarming clip. The wind is beginning to settle down to our level and I’m about to go out to retrieve and save my St. Patrick’s Day wind sock before it gets destroyed. I made a mistake one year and left the Valentine’s Day wind sock out and it was a goner by the end of the day. The wind twisted and tangled it up into the metal flashing along the roof and there was absolutely no way to undo the damage. Ended up cutting it loose and tossing the remainder. Once is enough to teach me. A high wind warning is not a friend to fly-about holiday decorations.

Sad last night watching the tornado damage to the south. I’d listened to the Weather Channel all afternoon predicting exactly what happened, like everyone else hoping it wouldn’t all materialize. It did. Only the wind from that system hitting us and fingers crossed it doesn’t get crazy and cut out power. This – with the stores stripped bare – isn’t the time to be losing a freezer full of food. These are weird, unhappy times in so many ways.

Currently 40 with an average wind from the ENE of 13 mph. Feels like 32 degrees. Dew Point 39, Humidity 98%, Barometer 29.80, Visibility 7 mi., Sunrise 7:30 am, Sunset 8:04 pm.

90% chance of off and on rain today. High 52. E winds 10 -20 mph.

100% chance of rain with thunderstorms possible by morning. Low 47. SE winds 10 -20 mph.

Not much rain going on so far today. Everything’s a little wet but nothing drastic so far. Looking at the national map yesterday did look as if we could be in for some severe weather, but nothing like that going on so far. Actually doesn’t feel warm enough for anything developing. I guess we’ll see, but my bet is nothing scary. Just rain.

Currently 38 with an average wind from the E of 12 mph. Feels like 30 degrees. Dew Point 33, Humidity 84%, Barometer 30.00 & rising, Visibility 9 mi., Sunrise 7:32 am, Sunset 8:03 pm.

Cloudy early becoming afternoon partly cloudy. High 55. E winds 10 -20 mph.

90% chance of overnight rain. Low 40. E winds 10 -15 mph.

Shouldn’t be a bad day and it might be nice to have an all night rain. Not guaranteed that will happen. Never a for-sure guarantee with the weather, but it’s sounding possible. At any rate, it sounds like a rainy weekend coming up. Since we’re mostly all stuck in our houses anyway, losing the weekend to rain doesn’t seem as bad as it might have. Just looking for the bright side…

Currently 48 with an average wind from the W of 8 mph. Feels like 44 degrees. Dew Point 43, Humidity 82%, Barometer 29.85 & rising, Visibility 6 mi., Sunrise  7:33 am, Sunset 8:02 pm.

Cloudy with a slight chance of rain showers. High 54. NNW winds 5 -10 mph.

40% chance of showers early in the evening then cloudy for the rest of the night. Low 37. ENE winds 5 -10 mph.

No real rain yet but the air feels a bit misty. Tomorrow should bring us some sunshine followed by a couple of rainy days. Or at least this is the plan. Who really knows? But it isn’t snowing!

Currently 39 with an average wind from the SSW of 7 mph. Feels like 34 degrees. Humidity 81%, Barometer 29.99, Dew Point 33, Visibility 6 mi., Sunrise 7:35 am, Sunset 8:00 pm.

Sun and clouds mix for the day. High 54. SW winds 5 – 10 mph.

Cloudy with a 50% chance of overnight rain showers. Low in the lower 40s. SW 5 -15 mph.

Not a bad morning out there. Lots of the sun showing in the mix right at the moment. I’m sure that with a fair chance of overnight rain, the clouds will move in and take more than their share of the mix before the day is over. Looks as if the chance of rain is going to be sticking with us for the next handful of days. That’s okay. Long as it isn’t snow, bring on the precipitation.

So – how are you doing under the lock down? I’m doing some of those tasks I was always going to do next week, or next month…or next Spring. Amazing how many of them are getting wiped off the list. Might as well make the best of the time on our hands. Stay busy – stay healthy everyone.

Currently 34 with an average wind from the E of 3 mph. Feels like 31 degrees. Dew Point 30, Barometer 30.21, Humidity 87%, Visibility 8 mi., Sunrise 7:37 am, Sunset 7:59 pm.

Cloudy. High 47. ESE winds 5 – 10 mph.

Some passing clouds. Low 29. ESE winds 5 – 10 mph.

The couple of inches of new snow we got the other night is gone. There are still very small piles of dirty snow only driveways and parking lots left over from the winter, but they, too, are dwindling and will soon be gone. Nothing is really greening up here yet, not that I can see. But it won’t be long. Has to be happening soon. I’m pretty anxious.

Currently 32 with an average wind from the NE of 4 mph. Feels like 28 degrees. Dew Point 29, Barometer 30.14 & rising, Humidity 88%, Visibility 8 mi., Sunrise 7:39 am, Sunset 7:58 pm.

Cloudy early followed by partial afternoon clearing. High 46. ESE 5 – 10 mph.

Mostly clear overnight. Low 27. NW winds 5 -10 mph.

So Mother Nature says what else can we do to add to their woes? Ah yes, let’s dump a couple inches of snow on them. That ought to do it all right. So, we woke up to winter. It won’t last, and I’m sure there are those fining beauty in it. Me? Not so much. I don’t like a sight like this in winter, let alone in Spring. Temperatures will help with that. In the meantime it’s a white world out there.

Currently 29 with an average wind from the E of 10 mph. Feels like 20 degrees. Dew Point 18, Barometer 30.57 & falling, Humidity 63%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:41 am, Sunset 7:57 pm.

A mix of morning sun and clouds will becoming all clouds in the afternoon. High 41. SE winds 10 -15 mph.

60% chance of overnight snow. 1″ possible. Low 30. ESE winds 5 -10 mph.

Can’t believe the suggestion of snow is in our forecast. Nobody is in the mood for this sort of nonsense right now. We’ve got way too many other things to be concerned with. Snow? Come on, Mother Nature. Give us a break! On the plus side, the daytime temperatures will be high enough to make short work of getting rid of the snow, but it’s depressing to think we’ll wake up in the morning and see it. If I didn’t have to get out and feed the birds and critters, I’d just leave the shades closed until afternoon.
