Not much looking or feeling March-like these days. I know it’s early March, but still…This could be December or January or even February. That’s not nice. It’s time to tuck the cruel winter weather away and bring out something warmer and more pleasant. We’re most certainly ready.

Currently 8 with an average wind from the W of 14 mph making it feel like -9. Dew Point 0, Barometer 30.15 & rising, Humidity 69%, Visibility 7 mi., Sunrise 7:13 am, Sunset 6:35 pm. Partly cloudy with a 50% chance of snow showers. High 9. W winds 10 -20 mph.

60% chance of overnight snow showers, low 8. WSW winds 10 -15 mph.

Right now the sky has more sun than clouds showing. Won’t last long, but it sure is a fine sight for now. We already have yet another rotten Winter Weather Advisory in effect from 7pm tonight through 7pm Tuesday. Wonderful! It just never ends. All the more reason to appreciate this little breakthrough from the sun. Still a good 5″ of snow on the ground. Where, oh where, is Spring???

Currently 19 with a NNW wind of 9 mph making it feel like 9 degrees. Barometer 30.21 7 falling, Dew Point 9, Humidity 64%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:14 am, Sunset 6:33 pm. Cloudy today with a high of 21. WNW winds 10-15 mph.

Cloudy tonight with the possibility of snow flurries, low 4. WNW winds 10 -15 mph.

No change in our weather so far. Same old, same old. In fact, it’s as cold as it’s been with no hope for a warm up right quick. Are we sick of being cold? Of having to bundle up to the teeth just to go out the door? Oh yes. It’s time for Mother Nature to turn loose of the winter meanness and bring out a hint of spring kindness. We’re waiting.

Currently 27 with a WNW wind of 19 mph making it feel like 18. Barometer 30.17 & rising, Dew Point 23, Humidity 81%, Visibility 6 mi., Sunrise 7:16 am, Sunset 6:12 pm. Cloudy with a 60% chance of snow showers, mostly in the morning. High 31. NNW winds 10 -15 mph.

Overcast tonight. Low 15. Light and variable winds.

It does seem as if Winter Storm Scott will scoot to the south of us. Grateful for that. Not that there won’t be another one trailing along behind…there must be. It seems to be the way it goes this year. Rather tired of it, but since we have no say in the matter, we just keep cleaning up after one storm and getting ready for the next one. Looking forward to the color green. Certainly have seen enough white to last for a good long while.

Currently 25 with a calm wind. Feels like 25 degrees. Barometer 30.24 & rising, Dew Point 18, Humidity 73%, Visibility 8 mi., Sunrise 7:18 am, Sunset 6:31 pm. Mostly cloudy today with a high of 34. Light and variable winds.

Cloudy tonight with a 70% chance of snow. Low 24. Light and variable winds.

So…the back of February is vanishing into history and the beginning of March is before us. You know I always say, March Could Be Nice but this year I’m not so confident. I’m thinking I’m going to have to wait yet another year for that nice month of March. I hope I’m wrong. Spring is my favorite season and so often it’s almost a nonexistent season – it comes and goes without even putting in a decent appearance. I sure hope this isn’t one of them, but signs are not neon bright that it’s going to be one of those wonders I anticipate all winter long. Alas…at least the season – the official season – of winter is gone. That’s a blessing all in itself.

Currently 20 with a SSE wind of 2 mph. Feels like 20 degrees. Dew Point 14, Barometer 30.29 & rising, Humidity 77%, Visibility 7 mi., Sunrise 7:19 am, Sunset 6:30 pm. A few peeks of sun this morning but overcast all afternoon. High 28. Light and variable winds.

Mostly cloudy to clearing overnight. Low 8. Light and variable winds.

Oh my…usually with the end of February everyone’s spirits are perked up because…March Could Be Nice. Right? But this year? Not so much. The cold is going to continue, in fact, hearing the news that this could be our coldest March – ever. Swell. The next storm brewing on the West Coast appears to be bringing more bitter cold to us, but it looks, at least for the moment, as if the snow part will slide to the south as it moves on to the East Coast. This has been a weird winter with one storm right after another, like waves on the ocean shore, rolling across the country. With no end in sight for now. Oh my…

Currently 17 with an ENE wind of 6 mph making it fee like 8 degrees. Dew Point 13, Humidity 85%, Barometer 30.18 & falling, Visibility 0.3 mi., Sunrise 7:21 am, Sunset 6:28 pm.  90% chance of snow showers, then becoming partly cloudy, but with a possibility of freezing drizzle. High 26. NNW winds 5 – 10 mph.

Partly cloudy with a chance of flurries. Low around 5., NW winds 5 – 10 mph.

Another 3″ of overnight snow. I have no idea, right now, what our season’s snowfall is. What I do know is that it’s been never-ending. A few inches here, another couple there…and then instead of the mild little break we usually get where we can take a breath and say, “Well, winter isn’t so bad, is it?”…we get freezing rain, a miserable wintry mix, or wind storms. It’s been a nightmare winter this time around and we can’t see the back of it soon enough.

Currently 13 with a NNE wind of 3 mph making it feel like 6 degrees. Barometer 30.58, Dew Point 7, Humidity 75%, Visibility 10 mi., Sunrise 7:23 am, Sunset 6:27 pm. A few breaks in the cloud cover possible this morning, otherwise overcast today. High 22. ENE winds 5 – 10 mph.

60% chance of overnight snow. 1-3″ possible. Low 16. E winds 10 -15 mph.

Well, okay, we now have Winter Storm Ryan taking aim at us. Whew! For a second or two we were thinking we were going to be left out of this storm-party rolling across the country. But no…we’re going to get our share, tonight and tomorrow. One storm right after another. It’s like a gigantic set of dominoes has been tipped over somewhere along the upper west coast and they just keep falling across the nation without let up. Overwhelming might be the word this winter. January and February have allowed no chance to recover before another storm barrels through. Winter-weary might be the description of how we all feel.

Currently 12 with a W wind of 19 mph making it feel like -7. Barometer 30.35 & rising, Dew Point 4, Humidity 70%, Visibility 5 mi., Sunrise 7:24 am, Sunset 6:26 pm. 70% chance of morning snow showers becoming partly cloudy in the afternoon. High 16. W winds 15 -2 5 mph.

Cloudy with a few overnight snow showers. Low 11. WNW winds 5 – 10 mph.

Glad yesterday is finished. Super windy, snow blowing all over the place. Ended up being able to measure 3″ of new snow, but that is far from accurate. The snow flew around everywhere, most certainly didn’t fall straight down in any measurable manner. Lots of power outages. Mine came and went but ended up hanging in there for the most part. Although every time the power flickered and went out it was preceded by a horrible groaning, loud sound. Have NO idea what that was all about, but it was sure scary. Today the wind continues to blow – not nearly close to yesterday’s horror show – but still strong and the cold is with us for awhile yet.

Frankly, we’ve had more than enough of this winter.

Currently 39 with an average wind from the SW of 27 mph making it feel like 28 degrees. Barometer 29.14 & falling, Dew Point 36, Humidity 89%, Visibility 2 mi., Sunrise 7:26 am, Sunset 6:24 pm. High Wind Warning In Effect. W winds 25-35 with gusts over 50 mph. So…windy today with a morning high of 40 falling to an afternoon high of only 25. 70% chance of snowfall.

Windy tonight with a 50% chance of snow showers. Low 12. W winds 25 -35 with higher gusts through the night.

It’s the low of 12 tonight that’s concerning. With high winds hitting us all day and tonight, power outages are absolutely guaranteed throughout the area. 12 degrees with no heat is scary. We expect to see plenty more tree damage in addition to the power outages. White out conditions for driving with blowing snow is going to make travel dangerous. Not a good day or night looming for us…and if the power goes out all over the place, likely no power for lengthy periods of time. We need to get through this bout of ugly weather and get farther along to road to Spring.
