I put a digital temperature sensor in my attic for curiosity sake a while back to see how high it gets. It consistantly gets into the low 130s. It prompted me to beef up my duct work insulation and seal the joints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more for areas like PA,nrn MD area but could spill south to Baltimore. Not like it would be like last weekend, but you don't need that right now. Just something to watch. Hopefully it's more to the north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea how that happens if it is based off of the RAP. It's only initialized from the 0 hour RAP fields after that it's a different model, so I'm not surprised by the solution divergence. Edit: the HRRR is also not initialized by NCEP RAP it uses a newer experimental version (e.g., essentially an updated version of WRF along with some updated parameterizations and data sets).

chris87 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 while not impressed by H8 temps on the 12z IAD sounding, they are a bit misleading...the inversion associated with the EML is at around 750 mb where temperatures are around 18C...if we completely mix out this afternoon, taking the 750 mb temperature and warming it dry adibatically you get surface temps around 42C (NOTE: approximation..not forecast)...so this is a case where H8 temps from the 12z sounding aren't the best predictor...
