Good Wednesday all-
Today is going to be stunning. I mean it. The ridge that gave us our warmth yesterday will be moving in even further and boost our temps ten degrees higher than yesterday, which means we are heading for the low to mid 70s(!) today...and tomorrow as well (though today will be warmer than tomorrow due to increased cloud cover). By Friday, however...a backdoor cold front will cause rain to move into the region, which could be heavy at times...but it's more likely a sustained light rain, with maybe 0.25-0.5" possible. Thus, the STORM WATCH is dropped due to there not being enough precip to warrant it. Even better news is that much of next week looks to be in the upper 50s or low 60s...but with primarily rainy conditions, it's not going to be nearly as pleasant as today or tomorrow.
Today in weather history- March 9, 1956- The snow depth at Mt Rainier, in Washington state, reaches 367" (or 30.6ft), the second highest snowfall depth ever recorded in the lower 48 and the state record for Washington. The all-time record snowfall depth in the continental US is 458", set in Tamarack, CA in 1911.
