7 March 2024
Two days in the past it used to be so balmy in Pittsburgh that we wore T-shirts open air. The prime on Monday 4 March tied the 74°F document, honeysuckle leaves popped out and I discovered coltsfoot blooming in Schenley Park. The week earlier than used to be heat, too. Right here’s what used to be blooming Feb 23 to March 1.
The elements goes to show chilly this weekend. Will spring be dealt a setback on Sunday?
In my town group Saturday evening’s predicted low will probably be 35°F, nonetheless above freezing and considerably above customary. The map under presentations the low temperature anomaly predicted for this Saturday (Sunday’s map gained’t be to be had till the next day to come). Sunday’s forecast says it’ll pass right down to 30°F, slightly under freezing.
On Monday the elements warms up once more. It’ll be 60°F on Tuesday.
I’m now not too nervous a couple of Spring setback in Pittsburgh. NOAA’s March 2024 forecast appears to be like lovely sizzling.
