Ian Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Bold....i agree with phin We've already had days with highs around then with a much less cold look. Not sure how you're coming to temps in the upper 30s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My agreement is that the temps will bust...Im not thinking upper 30's but i bet DCA doesnt have any highs below 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 DCA already had days with a high around 25? When did that happen?No.. in the upper 30s. I mean if you're going to call for it not to perform at least be realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldie 22 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 And besides when clippers slide to our North doesn't that shut off the cold air drain for a bit? Admit it Ian this cold shot is going up in flames Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhineasC Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 No.. in the upper 30s. I mean if you're going to call for it not to perform at least be realistic. Fine, mid-30s, maybe 33-37. So a similar bust to today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 On 1... You mean today was supposed to be cloudy? No, I meant that the conditions were never in doubt. It is easy to bust by 10 degrees if you get the clouds/precip wrong. It is tough to bust by that much if the clouds/precip conditions are basically as forecast (and completely benign).

mitchnick Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I don't know if it's been said in the thread already, but I'd say we haven't really said good riddance to 2012 weatherwise yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do tend to bust high out ahead of a front but this is a bit more extreme than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 How is that not significant to this upcoming week I dunno. Maybe it is I just don't see why. Today's a pretty typical setup for temps to overperform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 Bright sun, strong west downsloping winds, and no snowpack to the w can do it....and they did it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldie 22 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Bright sun, strong west downsloping winds, and no snowpack to the w can do it....and they did it.... The air mass is traveling over the same snowless grounds...seems to me a safe bet it modifies. Eh...no matter...I'm sure it's still gonna be cold then warm up for the precip. I need to stop whining anyway...I've been a classic #10 on the zwyts scale the past two days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usedtobe Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I just finished a 60 degree walk, pretty nice. The weather for our area must be boring. People have started posting max temps for cities no near our area, are arguing over max temps this coming week. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 How is that not significant to this upcoming week The flow ahead of a strong front often does this IIRC. It has happened many times when we have a strong front rolling in. I don't think it has a bearing on the temps this week. This is a mean front - should still perform pretty well.

Disc Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Upon further inspection and having the tree guys remove the tree, my weather station survived (garage too) being hit by a tree. Davis quality perhaps? It's been re-mounted and everything seems to be working! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BristowWx Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Ur forecast for normal DC snow this winter in trouble right? That is a good question. I would think by Groundhog day winter forecasts could be revised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87storms Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Todays weather is irrelevant to the rest of the week. it might be relevant to tomorrow's weather which is relevant to the next day, etc. it's all connected somehow. i would say insignificant as opposed to irrelevant.
