January 2020 Forecasts and Discussions

Post by stuffradio »

This is the first month of the new year! Sun angles! Garlic! Cherry blossoms! Everything is happening!

It's looking increasingly like we'll be getting our first true taste of winter weather. How much snow, if any, remains to be seen.

I'd also like to take a moment to thank everyone. It's almost been a year since we switched over, and the forum membership has grown greatly! Let's make 2020 another great year for weather discussions!

Lol. Been seeing snow and green/blue maps overhead for weeks it seems. Meantime...its bommy rains. How did the 12c feel today? :lol: :lol:
Of course it could easily be 18c and bommy during this strong EN, but instead March starts out troffy and chilly! :shock: :shock: Bring on some 18c sunny days
