Slightly above normal temperatures here lately, the high was 14°C/57°F yesterday and 12°C/54°F today. Even with the opaque altitude cloud layer, one can feel the strenght of the late March sun. Today was also the first day to feature that typical mid-spring haze. Could it be the beginning of my seasonal allergy problems?

No, the enlightened view is that all this cold weather is caused by natural variability and has little to do with longer term climatic trends.

NAM4km relfectivity showing very heavy precipitation southern NJ and Delaware Monday afternoon. 850 below freezing.
Surface temps in low to mid 30s. This would be heavy snow
Grand Forks is often the coldest report for those of us over here in North Snowkota. But, It is not unusual for those of us South of Grand Forks to be colder. I don't find anything online for a listing of daily numbers however can get a "live" banner like I use for Marion.
Here are the banners I'm putting Marion first. then Fargo and than Grand Forks
These are "live" links and will automatically update

Interesting but arent "normals" the average of all highs and lows for past 30 yrs? So if normal is teens as the low and its going to zero and below, thats pretty cold and in fact record breaking a few times, meaning it hasnt happened in over 70 years so it cant be that common.
A RECORD LOW TEMPERATURE OF -23 DEGREES WAS SET AT GRAND FORKS
INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT THIS MORNING...MARCH 17. THIS BREAKS THE OLD
RECORD OF -14 SET IN 1967.
The area to watch for very heavy snow according to the latest High Res NAM4km is the area I circled in red. Its showing areas that can see 6-10" of snow in a 6hr period which means whiteout conditions during the day tomorrow. Delaware and southmost NJ.
After a week and a half of nearly constant sub-40°F weather, the second half of this week looks like the cold spell is finally ending with seasonable weather. Hope it'll stay, but it sure looks like we're beginning to see the light

Wow, my area's red, so we could get 4 inches according to that map. I wasn't excepting to see that. Weather Underground says 1. Interesting. I'm glad I don't have to work or go anywhere tomorrow.
