wxmeddler Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Wind has noticeably picked up here in DC in the past few minutes with this small line. That was the cold front, winds should be from the WNW now. There was a 43 mph gust at DCA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVclimo Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 1.66" of rain yesterday. Peak wind gust of 36 mph. Already had a 43 mph gust at 5 a.m. this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 2.48 inches of rain here, we now have snow, a little less than half inch on ground. Creeks and rivers are a rockin'! Was 51 at 12:30 am now at 32.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
das Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 1.56" so far this evening with no end in sight... Ground here is still frozen solid so all the water is running off into creeks and gullys. Ended up with 3.96" in the bucket. Lot's of localized flooding with trees starting to drop due to the winds and saturated soil. Peak gust is 53mph at 5:15am but there have been two gusts over 50mph since then. Temps down to 36.9F. Interesting, the ground is still frozen 1/2" under the mushy top layer. There is water ponding on grassy areas that I have never seen it do so before since it can't penetrate the ice layer.

midatlanticweather Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 The title of this thread was misleading! When we said it would be a rocking 2013 we were thinking snow and a lot of it. I guess we have some time to make up for the low snow January, but maybe we should have been clear on what type of weather would be rockin' us! Warm and buckets o' rain, or cold and dry. Not really rockin' for me! Just sayin' OK - I have complained for the day! On to the Flizzard event! (the statements do not represent people who, for some reason, were blessed with multiple moderate snow events, including part of the eastern shore and lower southern MD and the Higher elevations of the SW parts of VA. I, of course, complain about my own back yard!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
