Herb@MAWS Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Temps definitely on the down-slope now. From 53 at 4:30pm to 50 at 5:45pm. Had to change battery on in-/outdoor rain gauge at 5am. It said 7.27" fell at 4:30pm, so I can throw that reading out.

These individual storm threads take a natural progression from modeling discussion to real-time forecasting/obs. OK. Temp has gone down another half degree since my last post. 39.9. Don't know if this can last, but at this rate it's going to be freezing in an hour. I suppose reality is that it is dropping because of the heavy rain/gusts.

These individual storm threads take a natural progression from modeling discussion to real-time forecasting/obs. Agreed. 48.2 with steady fall. I was stuck at 54 for hours nearly all afternoon after being stuck at 57 all damn morning. Huge slug of heavy windblown rain incoming for most areas. What a deluge today. I've had over 2.5 since this began. Good luck to filks in Leesburg and north. Take some pictures so we can all enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Temp slope changed at about 5:20pm to a faster decline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWxLuvr Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I'm sorry if I am hamming it up, but this is really impressive.
