3/6

Good morning- Happy Thursday!

First off, sorry for not updating yesterday- I had a crazy day!

Secondly, the moderating temps are coming until about the middle of next week. No major storms are in sight until the middle/later part of next week, and that's so far off you can't tell this far out. More on that in a bit. In the meantime, temps will be steadily on the rise until about Sunday, at which time they may approach 50 (finally) before snow showers associated with a clipper knocks the temps back down (nothing-2", minor event). Next week, however, the polar vortex returns, though a bit weaker than this week. It also comes with a potential major nor'easter. In fact, yesterday one top computer model (the Euro) was showing the best comparable dates as the ones that featured the Superstorm of '93. Do I think this will happen at this time? NO. Do I think it is impossible/unrealistic? Again, no. This is certainly something to watch in the next few days as we get into the middle part of March. Until next time!

Today in weather history- March 6, 1992- Marrietta, Georgia picks up 6" of....hail?

Also, March 6, 1872- The mercury hits -8 in Boston, establishing the all-time record low for March in that area.
