Imagine if we really were gonna have 36-48 hours of snow with temps in 20s accumulating 8-12 inches like the euro showed for us on Sunday and Monday. That would be fun.
I dunno, my area has been pretty bad this year too. I've had an inch of slop, then a few inches over 2 days during the NYC blizzard, then like a half inch of slop, now probably an inch or two of slop with this one.
I’ll take any more to banter but working from home (virtual teaching) and being able to run errands during the day or start cooking dinner or laundry has been a pretty nice quality of life upgrade. The actual teaching element sucks so bad though, especially for my subject which relies heavily on labs (physics). Can’t wait to go back.
We have a lot of people from the westminster area on this forum it seems. What's it like up there? I'm looking for some new places to drive up to for a day to see with my kids. Never been there. What are some of the attractions I should visit if I head up that way?
Verbatim yes, but at this point I wouldn't be surprised if everything is warmer even further north. GFS has temps up on the northern tier of Maryland around 29-32 at 18z today and I'm already seeing mid 30s on the some of the stations around Westminster.
It’s not even just 850s the surface is torched too for a lot of our subforum. Looking like plain rain to me around DC. And this is from another model that is already busting 2-3 degrees low on current temps.
Even the 12k NAM is already busting low with temps. NAM says I should be at 35 and DCA should be at 37. I'm at 38/39 and it's already around or above 40 at DCA.
Yeah I’ll take whatever, I think we’ll just have to get used to this unfortunately on the coastal plain as our climate rapidly warms.
Was supposed to have a high of 39 today, just went for a run in rock creek and it’s beautiful out lol. Nice and warm in the sun temp up to 38 already, running in a t-shirt.
It’s surprising this trended to another white rain/mix event with temps 33-36 in DC. I guess that’s been the seasonal trend though, there is never any deep cold preceding a storm. We haven’t had a storm with temps in the 20s the night before in quite some time.
Only fly in the ointment I see is the stupid boundary level temps on the NAM. NAM seems to be a bit of a warm outlier but it also seems like you rarely bust going with the warmest guidance around DC metro.
