Wacky Weather: Late Season Snow Storms

Happy First Day of Spring!!! Although, most of us still feeling a winter chill. In meteorology talk, there is a blocking High Pressures system in Canada keeping the Jet Stream south giving the MidWest and East a very active and cool weather pattern. Unfortunately, for you looking for spring, this pattern looks to persist into the first week of April. I found a graphic from AccuWeather that perfectly describes what I am trying to say.

The most recent winter storm hit the northeast yesterday, dropping anywhere from 1 to 6 inches of snow from Philadelphia to New York.  And models are hinting to yet another late snow storm for the MidWest and East next week! Get ready, winter is not over yet! (even though I wish it was)
