WxUSAF Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 After a chilly morning, and some spots in the mountains already getting a freeze, time to have the first freeze contest! Same as the last two years (I think this is the 3rd time I've done this...) for scoring. Pick your dates...lowest cumulative departure wins. Predict the first time the 4 major wx stations of our region hit 32F or lower. BWI: DCA: IAD: RIC: Tiebreaker: high temperature at BWI on day of first freeze there Deadline is 1159pm on 30 September! P.S. 2013 dates are acceptable for DCA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arlwx Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Just for reference, NWS shows the first fall 2011 freeze (<33 degrees F) as being Oct 30 for IAD and BWI, Oct 31 for RIC, and Dec 10 for DCA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Druff Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Just for reference, NWS shows the first fall 2011 freeze (<33 degrees F) as being Oct 30 for IAD and BWI, Oct 31 for RIC, and Dec 10 for DCA. BWI: 12/5 DCA: 12/10 IAD: 11/30 RIC: 1/8 Edit: Dates reflect real freeze as in below 28, not just dropping below 32 I can't say much about when our first freeze will happen. However, I can say with 99.99999% certainty that a month will not elapse after a DCA freeze before RIC freezes. In fact, as arlwx notes, RIC will often freeze BEFORE DCA.
