30/16/22/0.11. I don't see why they shouldn't be able to tank tomorrow night. Low-level moisture shouldn't be an issue. Winds, I feel should be strong once the CAA hits them tomorrow, and the high, I couldn't calculate one above 30F tomorrow using Hysplit air parcel trajectories. The air was coming from northern Illinois and northern Indiana and I made sure to adjust the elevation change between the two places and still could only get up to 30F. But again, I feel I get unlucky ALL THE TIME! LMAO

Did one final air parcel trajectory calculation using HYSPLIT. Bufkit says we mix to 2000m agl so I used that as my highest using the 18z GFS and an end time of 18z. Well That green dot in ND was about -19.3889C and the air starts out 1500m higher than where it ends up at BWI, but I also added the elevation change between the two places so all in all I calculated I needed to add 17.5C to the starting temperature in ND to get -1.3889C which rounded up in Fahrenheit gave me 29F. If it only gets to 29F tomorrow I'll be damned.
