I will be blogging in much more detail later about the time and temp differences from today.
And now is later… Bittinger 2nw Valley vs Garrett College. Also added one image of “Greenscapes” in Mchenry by the police barracks.

Temps at Cabin Mt, (will add Bittinger 2nw Valley) and National temp profile this afternoon, and in closer view. This will not pick up on the valley/high ground difference.
The Big Picture… Our current mild overall pattern shows signs of a breakdown late month, and more so take affect into March. There is some contradictory factors. The cooling off the west coast may help a negative PNA hold and prevent the severe cold from returning this wintet, but allow a pattern to go back into a consistent cold period week 1-3 in March. Lots of details to be worked out and will reveal themselves in time. As of now, plenty of hope for a wintry stretch yet.
