Shawn Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Getting hit by a monster rain shower around CAE. I know accuweather overdoes this usually, but their radar is def right this time around. The refreshed frame shows blackness instead of dark red/brownish in the middle. (No thunder to be heard, just rain) EDIT: one quiet rumble.

Gastonwxman Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Already at 67 degrees so far for today, which is a tad higher than yesterday's high. Great time to get out and enjoy the warmth. Expected to reach the mid 70s by the afternoon. Let's see if we get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LithiaWx Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Wow, what a warm day. It's bordering on hot today! At my office in Marietta it's 77.4 and 78.2 on the two sensors. That is with lots of concrete and cars on the lot which skews my temp by a few degrees but it's hot. While the temp at my office is typically warmer than Dobbins AFB (75 at 2:55PM reading) not far down the road, the temp is accurate for this location. ugh, I'm dreading summer already.

jburns Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 It's not often you have a forecasted low of 64 in Feb. Tonight: A slight chance of showers after 1am. Increasing clouds, with a low around 64. Southwest wind between 10 and 13 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoWeatherman Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Absolutely perfect day today. 74.7 IMBY in Dahlonega in February. I'll take it. If winter is going to blow then let it be warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bob Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Lovell Field is now 78F...ties the record high for today...one more degree to tie the record high for the month of February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATL_Militarypolice Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Nice day out today, went out and hit some baseballs. 18Z NAM starts to finally bring precip into the cold air Sunday. It's light precip, but it brings it into S and C MS/AL and eventually GA. Looked at some soundings temps are supportive for someone to see wintry precip (wintry mix, rain/snow, flurries) with only the surface to ~950-975MB above freezing. Saturation in the DSGZ supports snow growth, but some soundings don't show saturation in the lowest levels, so there would be virga...Maybe someone can get some token flurries probably won't accumulate though with surface temps ~ +3C. Will need to watch for trends to see if other models want to send moisture north into the cold this Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavarreDon Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 First day in 2012 hitting the 70's! 70.5° today in Weaverville....Shorts & a tee actually felt comfy today. Got a frog that has started croaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calculus1 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 74.8 was the high at my house today. What a shock to the system in February! Where's my cold... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Windows open tonight! --- from RAH... ALL THESE PARAMETERS POINT TO LOWS OF 60+ IN MOST ALL LOCATIONS EXPECT POSSIBLY IN THE FAR NORTHERN ZONES. THIS IS NO EASY ACHIEVEMENT FOR LATE FEBRUARY WHEN AVERAGE LOWS ARE 32-38. THIS WOULD BE 25+ DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugo Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Absolutely perfect day today. 74.7 IMBY in Dahlonega in February. I'll take it. If winter is going to blow then let it be warm. Agreed. I couldn't dream up a better day weather-wise. Nice and crisp morning, led to a high of 81. Now I have the windows open for the night. Few things more relaxing than falling asleep to the sounds of the outdoors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gastonwxman Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Reached 73 for a high yesterday. Unbelievable for late February and to make matters more interesting, it's 65 despite the current time! Might as well say this is a summer night instead of winter.

GaWx Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Savannah hit a record high 84 on Thursday (2/23), which was only two from the highest of any DJF on record. Interestingly, last winter actually had two days warmer (85) in late Feb. (2/27-8). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Local Yokel Wx Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Felt awesome and surreal last night taking out the trash to find the temp more like early summer than late Feb. Looking fwd to the cool down tomorrow with temps in the mid 40's. Heavy rain mixed with intermittent gust at the office in Clyde, NC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCStateMMY Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Clouds are moving hear at RTP. Wind has been howling all morning. 76 at RDU. Starting to remind me of the morning of April 16. Waiting to see if they launch any additional balloons at GSO and MHX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEGa Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 getting some showers and breezy conditions, but nothing overly exciting lol. it was 76 yesterday - a gorgeous day to say the least! since winter was a bust here hopefully we will make up for it during severe season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tullioz Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I can't believe it is almost as warm back home as it here in Mindanao in the Southern Philippines. It's 81 degrees in Eden, NC on February 24th. Wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsaur Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Man, what a day. I'm at 2 3/4, and still some rain falling. This train was much wider, and longer than the one the other day, but it set up along the same path, from sw of LaGrange right thru here, and on to Columbia. Michelle, I sure hope it threw it down on you like it did here. I could see it was going from my house to yours! Kyle, I hope it was not too far se of you to give youthe big amounts that I got. Looked like you were getting side swipped some of the time. This is the kind of train of rain the northside was getting for so long. Few more weeks like this and I can get well quick.

calculus1 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Well, about an hour ago, I had the highest rain rate that I can remember on my Vantage Vue. I received 0.41 inch of rain in one 10-minute span with a max rain rate (during that period) of 8.73 inches per hour! I then got 0.03 inch in the next 10-minute span, so I now have a 0.44 inch total for the day. We also received pea-sized hail during that brief storm.

This front, if you were under the good parts, was packing some juice with the thunder. I'll have to look but I bet I haven't been hammered like this in a year or more...not in less than 24 hours.

Tony I don't anticipate the kind of totals you are reporting. I might be a little to far northwest to catch the "train". I'll be happy with .75" to 1.00". Have to seen when I get home. Here at work, we didn't get but a quick 10 minute deluge, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
