WxUSAF Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 12z GFS has lows in the 30s Saturday morning for Trixie and maybe Winchester. Definitely would be first frost (freeze for colder locations) for much of PA/NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marked8 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 It would be nice to see some 40's again. The last time we had 40's in Manassas was on June 4th when it bottomed out at 48 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I don't think it will take that much to get sub 50 lows in the closer suburbs. Not all that uncommon. It's the highs that usually bust low. W-NW winds coming off the apps and blue ridge on a sunny day will bump maxes a 2-5 degrees above models. Haven't looked the the surface flow but I'm pretty sure breezy w-nw winds will be around until hp settles overhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattie g Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 screw you winter I agree with this sentiment. 40s at night is fine, but any talk of enjoying wind and sub-60s temps is verging on blasphemy. Winter in the DC area is just months of misery randomly interspersed with a few days of snowfall. And Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattie g Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I love cold and snow. Love the extremes. Even heat unless its like this past summer. I'm a warm lover, though heat like we had in July was brutal. I just don't do cold all that well. And I grew up near Philly, so it's not like I didn't grow up with some cold around. In winter, I hope for cold snaps that feature snow, with mild temps being the general rule. But if it's going to be cold, it better snow. That would keep me from being fairly miserable. Last winter was pretty awful in that regard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellinwood Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 MOS finally catching up... showing upper 40s (NAM)/lower 50s (GFS) for DCA. BWI and IAD are several degrees cooler (of course). Dewpoints getting into the upper 30s to lower 40s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCoWx Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Looks like temps. peaking early in the day on Friday here and dropping throughout the day into the 50's due to the CAD wedge. I'll take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattie g Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 12Z GFS has a light snow event for NE on the 28th, with 0C 850s running through northern WV and MD and up through South Jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellinwood Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 Could we stick to the more realistic stuff, please? Yes, the models have another cool shot, but you're looking at the 300+ hour fantasy range. I would appreciate it if that kind of stuff was not discussed in this particular thread. ----- Looks like we won't be seeing the 0C 850s with this weekend's cold event (has warmed to 3-4C), but surface temps are still in the range we were looking at several days ago. No lake-effect snow yet. EDITED for politeness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slow days are no excuse for junk posts. I am calm... I just would like this thread to have realistic discussion and not fantasy maps. The only reason why I started this thread is because there was a realistic and genuine setup in play that would allow for the cold (despite my lack of meteorological discussion on the matter). There's two others that also made posts about the long range GFS that I was directing my comment to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
