Sunny upper 30's this weekend up here so I imagine yours will be close to the same or better so I'd say you should be good to go. 

 

A band of snow will continue lifting northward through the day, falling heaviest this morning with snowfall rates up to an inch per hour possible within the most intense bands. Intensity should decrease by this afternoon. Slick roads possible!

Well apparently I need to pay closer attention to the weather guessers. I was completely surprised to wake up this more and see around 4-5 inches of heavy wet fresh snow! I thought an inch or less. ?

Don't count those chickens, they haven't hatched. It's still March my friend. I know you're on the right side of the lake but still....it's March.

No ice means I'm fishing every weekend, weather permitting, until ice up. Exactly one year ago I was out fishing with my dad. It was 16*, sunny, and calm winds. Tomorrow will be a heat wave compared to that,

As you know pics or it didn't happen...

A tease right out of the pictures files on my computer. Notice the dates.

Ugghhh. After Wednesdays storm that gave us less than expected I figured we were doing good. Then this morning I look out my window and find that its snowed 2" overnight. This winter will never end.

Woke up this morning to another inch of snow. That's 5 days of snow in a row. This is the worse March I've ever lived through. 

I don't know about the worst March ever.  '99 was pretty bad.  But yeah, it's colder than usual and way more snow than I'm used to seeing.

 

Came into 3" more this morning, and it's still snowing.

It has to be tough for you northeastern guys with the last three nor'easters almost back to back.  Sounds like it just wants to keep snowing for now.

One of the lakes we like to fish has a live cam on the shore. Just looked at it. A foot or better of snow sitting on the ice. Temps are supposed to hit the teens at nite for the next few days, and I'm starting to see a chance of more snow next week. Where I live still have around 2 feet of snow in the ground. Not fun

In PA we have a split season for the opening day of trout. Southeastern counties start on March 31 but the rest of the state starts April 14. Since they started this split season we've had 4 years where most of the lakes in the SE were frozen on opening day. The way its going this will be the 5th. 

Last day of March but it's going out with a bang here.

3 inches of snow today coming in with 45 mph winds and overnight temps in the teens.

Wind chills will be in the single digits.

But I'm watching baseball so regardless, we gotta be close . . . . .

We got it here only in rain. 1" of rain and 30mph winds today. Winter is back. going to be lows in the teens and 20's and highs in the 30's all week. Spring was fun while it lasted.

I woke up this morning to a red sky to the east, as fisherman we know what that means. I looked at the radar and realized I need to find another gear to get my work done before it turns nasty. She's turning pretty dark off to the west and I still have to work for a few more hours. I think I'm going to get wet. ?

Rain has subsided on my side of the lake, Wind is still whoopin'

It's hitting land right now so I've got about 45 minutes to finish up. No wind yet.

Saw our fist robin in the yard here yesterday, and the red winged blackbirds have been at the feeder for a couple weeks now. Looks like the robin is going to be eating birdseed and old crabapples here for another week at least though ?.

This is one of the cooler springs I can remember.  Not frigid, but with daytime temps rarely getting above the low 60's, water is not warming up.  Today we are only supposed to get to 40, and only one day in the 10 day forecast reaches the low 70's.  Nightime temps in the 20's and low 30's for the entire forecast period.  This is NOT normal for April in eastern Colorado.

For the first time since I can remember, March was colder than February.

I wish this was an April Fools Day Joke ~ But it's not.
