Point Blank Range Forecasts: Mar. 11-13, 2011

Mild temperatures have been the story for the later part of the week, but they are not going to stay this way for long. More details on that to come, but first is the look back at the last forecast.

The previous outlook involved snowfall for Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse. Here are their snow totals from the 25th through the 27th of February.

Buffalo: 11.1
Rochester: 10.0
Syracuse: 9.3

Bull's Eye: All three get at least 8 inches, with at least one getting a foot, of snow this weekend.
On Target: All three get at least 8 inches of snow.
Complete Miss: At least one of the three gets under 8 inches of snow.

Neither could quite get to the foot mark over the three days, so it is an On Target forecast.

With this and the GSG forecast being On Target, my average remains below 1.00 for the season, now at 0.93. Just 3 forecasts remain, enough to either finish out strong or end with a whimper.

Now on to this forecast, which as hinted at before, focuses on temperatures. In particular, it compares Friday highs with Sunday's low for all GSB cities. I am expecting double digit differences for at least a majority of the region.

Bull's Eye: Friday's high will be at least 10 degrees warmer than Sunday's for all five GSB cities.
On Target: Friday's high will be at least 10 degrees warmer than Sunday's for 3 of the five GSB cities.
Complete Miss: Friday's high will be at least 10 degrees warmer than Sunday's less than 3 of the five GSB cities.
