Current climatic conditions

The rain started about daylight Saturday morning, then stayed away until after dark. We got about three quarters of an inch. I did get out long enough to plant a few squash seeds in grow bags.

Sunday we got just over four inches, mostly after midnight and this morning, but there were a few rumbles of thunder in the afternoon. Looks like it has passed now. The river is coming up, but I don't think it will flood. I stayed home tonight because I didn't want to cover my car with limestone mud. Plus my TV reception is always iffy when it's raining. Or maybe it was the time change had me dragging. Either way I skipped camp night.

At 2330 it's partly cloudy and 51F. Today's low/high was 51/68F. Tomorrow's forecast calls for 51/60F with a 25% chance of rain.
 
For tonight's viewing of the last lunar eclipse easily viewable from the central US for a long time...

It's forecast to be cloudy.

Same here. I tried to nap before doing my midnight ramble, but it didn't work out. I'll head out at 0100 Central time. The later I go the more clouds I can expect. But it doesn't start until 0045 and doesn't get full until 0130 in my neck of the woods.

I was able to see it between the clouds, which was actually pretty cool.
 
Rainy and upper 30s in northern Colorado today. We'll take our moisture pretty much any way we can get it.

Behave, those with dirty minds- you know who you are!
 
Today I'm northern Colorado it's mid 50s and windy. And dry; red flag fire warning, thanks to winds and insufficient moisture recently. Last night's low just barely creepy below freezing for an hour.

We're forecast to get rain and maybe snow mid week. Good! We need all we can get.

Yea, it was clear for me too. There was a small amount of ground fog/mist, but didn't really cause any viewing issues. My regular walk goes across some of my neighbor's land. When I got there folks were camping out, looking at the moon. I just turned around and went another way. No need to chance getting shot.
 
The big line of thunderstorms on Saturday night/Sunday morning just barely tail dragged us. We got lots and lots of wind, half an inch of rain, but not really any thunder at all. Well, none while I was awake anyway. The wife said she got a STSW warning on her phone about 0300.

It was cold today. Florida cold, that is. It did get up to 70F but with the wind was never very warm. Sister is in Colorado so I'm feeding her animals, and that was the only time I got outside today. There was a slight frost on the car this morning. 39F at the riverhouse, and 37F once I got to the sandhill, according to the car thermometer. Tomorrow it's going to be warmer. High low of 75/40F is forecast. It's 58F now. Cool enough that if I wear my puffer pants I will need cuddl duds underneath.

70F in Florida is not warm! Hell, I was comfy with the AC set at 78 inside. That split pea soup y'all call an atmosphere down there really wicks the heat away anytime it's below 80 degrees. It took awhile for this Colorado boy to get used to...

I guess I'm just used to living here.
 
The temperature here in northern Colorado just fell over 20 degrees in about an hour, from sunny and low 60s to 40 degrees and still falling, with 30mph wind gusting to over 45. Rain, possibly freezing rain and snow are expected anytime and lasting into the evening.

Welcome to March!
