Hard to have much winter here when Jan and Feb both torch. December is phl's coldest winter month so far at 37.8. Possible (but unlikely) for March to also be colder than either Jan or Feb.

Patchy ice on blacktop and sidewalk. Sun glare and accidents on the local highways. Fun times. Looks more winter like than much of actual winter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possible (but unlikely) for March to also be colder than either Jan or Feb. Whoever had the month of December should do our entire outlook next winter. Little did we know we had the decimal point wrong (or had GFSitis, 10:1 predicted, observed ratio) with our snowfall (We Meant 2.6" , not 26"). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats Erie🥵 http://www.nrcc.cornell.edu/services/blog/2023/03/01/index.html Misery loves company. The inability to sustain any cold air in the East the past 4 months has been thing I'll take away from this winter the most. Yes, a few impressive cold blasts but brief. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
