EastCoast NPZ Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 46 KOKV. Only 50.8 at my house but I'm slightly elevated. Pretty impressive. My therm bit the dust two weeks ago, so I don't know what it got to imby. Aylor wxbug station reported 50F, but that thing is notoriously iffy and WINC reported 49F, though I don't know where their studio is located. I would guess that at my elevation we made it into the 40s. KOKV really bottomed out, though. Anyway, yesterday, last night, and this morning was the nicest Aug weather in my immediate memory. Mowing the grass yesterday evening in that refreshingly cool breeze and dry air was an absolute pleasure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Currently I have 48.8, overnight bottomed at 47.1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 BWI 55 IAD 54 DCA 60 Those the lows, correct? 53 at IAD & BWI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxmeddler Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 52.5 at home, 50 at Mville and 53.6 outside my window. Surprised at the home reading because that is 30 feet off the ground. Near ground level was likely under 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 53 at IAD & BWI. IAD would have prob been in the 40s if DPs weren't so "high" last night. I was hoping DCA would get 59, seems like we just missed. Prob haven't been too many 50s for lows in August at DCA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrederickWX Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Pretty impressive temps for mid-August, and a real nice morning. However, I'm bummed that the weekend has taken a turn for the worse. It's been a number of years since I've seen a summer with so many cloudy, cool, rainy days. The swimming pools down the road have spent a lot of this summer nearly empty. If the pattern of repeated cold-air mass intrusions into the central and east were to somehow continue into the winter, it would make for a pretty interesting cold season. I'm curious to see what happens with the overall pattern as we proceed into Fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously hoping for at least one more decent heat wave before its time to close it for the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmeddler Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 It's very dry.. below -2 SD and near the record. 850 temp is also below -2 SD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoast NPZ Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 The first half of Aug for Winchester is -3.5F for the highs, but only -.86F on the lows. Unfortunately, If Accuwx is right, we'll be fortunate to finish Aug below normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Didn't someone say Accuwx removed their 45 day forecasts? Well...I still see them there. And good thing to!

mattie g Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Temp didn't drop much overnight last night. It was in the low 60s when I went to bed, and it only got down to 56 - a temp drop of about six degrees in nine hours. Still cool, for sure, but not as precipitous a drop as I thought we might take.

Hence saying that of course it will be hot next week as it is the start of school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrederickWX Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Amazing afternoon! Can't believe how comfortable it is. Just wish it was a weekend day, not a work day. This time of year, through about mid-October, has some of the most incredible weather days of the entire year.

Too bad winter follows. I don't mind the winter weather through New Years. Very seasonal, with the holidays and all. However, I can do without the cold and wind of January and February. If only it actually snowed here during those months, it would be more bearable. Sent from my SCH-I545 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
