It’s been said that “snow is the most difficult thing to forecast in the Pacific Northwest.” And while I believe this is often true – our terrain, microclimates, and often marginal temperatures can make snow […]

Yesterday was cloudy, but we had some clearing late giving us this beautiful sunset.  Today has been sunny with a few clouds, and temps are quite mild.  Unfortunately, winds are very strong making it very cold i […]

December 2020 was warmer and wetter than normal. My maximum temperature average (45.7°) was 0.5° above normal but my minimum temperature average (32.7°) was much more significantly above normal (+ 4.5°), res […]

This is about the 4th day that we’ve had these exact weather conditions.  Occasional snow squalls from lake effect keep dropping about an inch to two everyday.  It isn’t much but just enough that we have to keep c […]

It’s been a while since we had a significant, regionwide, winter windstorm hit the Pacific NW. The last major windstorm to hit the Inland Northwest was the 11/17/2015 windstorm, which brought an extended period of […]

Today is just another much like the past 3-4.  Cloudy skies with occasional light snow showers happening every so often.  It’s really getting boring.  I wish it would either clear up and be sunny, or bring us a go […]

TEMPERATURES
It was a very mild December as Average Temperatures were about 3° above the monthly Normal. Maximum Temperatures remained in the upper 40s to low 50s through the first 9 days, dropping to the low […]

Our morning was snowy, but now the snow showers have stopped.  I’m estimating that we received about half an inch but most has melted already.  It’s strange how the weather just isn’t changing from day to day, w […]

Temperatures will start going down this upcoming week, but will continue to be slightly above normal.  Yesterday brought us about an inch of very wet snow which accumulated to about an inch.  Most had melted by e […]

Although temperatures reached the low 40s yesterday, we didn’t lose much snow cover.  I’m seeing more bare spots but the snow is still measuring about 2 inches where it remains.  Yesterday was a mix of sunny and c […]

Our weather lately has been boring.  Everyday is like the one before and I guess I shouldn’t complain about that.  I’m seeing where northern areas of the state got freezing rain last night and we sure don’t need a […]

NOVEMBER 2020 MONTHLY SUMMARY ROCKVILLE 2.8 WNW MARYLAND

November 2020 temperatures were, as usual, above normal, still due to the more frequent trend of recent years of above normal average minimum […]

After multiple cloudy days, we finally have some sun this morning.  Unfortunately, there are very cold temperatures with it.  It was only 13F when I got up this morning, and temps have rebounded a bit since t […]

Highs yesterday reached just enough above freezing to make the road muddy, but not really enough to get rid of any snow cover.  We still have about 2 inches on the ground and no more is expected for a while.  In f […]

This has been a peaceful week weather-wise here in Michigan.  There hasn’t been much precipitation and what we got was very light.  We had quite a bit […]

Our trees are still snow covered with very little thawing going on.  Gotta admit, it’s very pretty.  This is why I like snow in the winter.  Without it, the days are so dark and gloomy.  We have about 3 inche […]

It began as rain in the afternoon, then changed to snow by early evening.  Just when we thought that we were spared from the freezing rain, it changed to freezing rain.  By nightfall, it was heavy to moderate s […]

I think that this picture insert pretty much tells what we can expect today.  Right now it is calm but it doesn’t look like it will be that way much longer.  I’m just glad that I don’t have to go anywhere t […]

Although I doubt that there will be much partying going on tonight, those who do have to be traveling may find it quite difficult.  There is a wintry mix in the forecast with freezing rain for our New Year’s […]
