  1. 33.1 for my high and I was 32.0 or above from 1:45 until 3:20
  2. DCA had three -20 or colder departures in a week which is first time since 1989. i think but dint know last time it happened in Jan or Feb was 1977 or 79 or 82 or 94
  3. DCA averaged -17.4 the last 8 days of January including three -21
  4. DCA still weird as it’s the coldest spot and it was wacadoodle this afternoon with as described above Strong nw winds over frozen Potomac has got to be involved
  5. 25.4 for the high here down in the holler at the head of the now frozen creek . 23.5 at 5:30
  6. DCA having a fit this afternoon with an 8 degree increase on one hourly and just now a 5 degree drop on another hourly
  7. This is an arctic siege due to duration length. It’s not a frigid one or two day blast which often sets our records but rather a protracted highs 18-25 and lows 0 to 10.
  8. Low of 11 with minimum hourly wind chill of -4 Any south to southwest breeze influenced warm up is going to travel hundreds of miles over snowpack before reaching our snowpack . It will be interesting to see how that influences milder air attempts starting with tomorrows predicted high temps of 30-33 and 32-35 Tuesday for DC
  9. I gotta get all the data but I think this breaks the record from 1977 for 7 day cold streak
  10. 94 was extreme and 96 serious business .
  11. 1977 was known for its duration more than daily records. There were a couple . I’ve always felt the Cold Sundays 1982 were incredible 7 day apart bitter blasts ; highs around 10 and lows at and below zero
  12. Clouds moving in from south later and I guess that’s virga in the radar ?
  13. 20 for the high and just 21 at DCA Its not rare to get a 2-3 day shot like this or colder but 7 + days is rare and this might be coldest 10 day stretch since the immortal 1977
  14. Odd to me how this storm has a pronounced “U” formation to the precip shield . I don’t think that dramatic of a dip will occur so the outcome of this not set in stone
  15. The 1025 high on top of us is typically not a suppressor so there must be other elements in play to carry the storm ene and miss us?
  16. Low of 7.5 and that’s coldest so far and currently 16.8
  17. So the more it nears Hatteras the more it helps you? That might help us for miracle save and help you too for sure?
  18. Mid Atlantic guy but go get this one. 50+ gusts and you will have 4-6’+ drifts everywhere, Did in 1966 Maryland eastern shore . Just got smacked here for 9”’and 7”!s still around. Now your turn!!!!
