snowfan Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Good find. Thanks for posting that. I was worried I was going nuts. I thought the same thing so I did some research earlier. October 12-13, 2006 - up to 24" fell. http://www.erh.noaa.gov/buf/storm101206.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 eh -- pretty marginal to extend the warning to the bay--prob some spotty freezing east of DC in coldest case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Verify it with a few stations and be done with it for the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 They want to get it out of the way. Verify it with a few stations and be done with it for the year. BWI MOS has consistently been near freezing. Andrews around 33/34. I think there may indeed be at least some pockets east of the initial warning area that get a freeze but I wouldn't bet too heavily at any one spot, whereas I'd be surprised if IAD misses it.

Most stations still have at least minor to moderate wind issues for prime cooling. Still some clouds about too. Even Dulles might only get like a 31/32. I think tomorrow night will be the coldest of the batch, though some disagreement between nam and gfs there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 The thing that makes the least sense is the warning to the east starts at midnight and the one west starts at 3a. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Wunderground PWS have some low numbers scattered about even down near La Plata etc. Dews shouldn't drop much more so might be a bottom early type of night but today was colder than expected maybe tonight will overperform.

Eskimo Joe Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 I'm taking a chance not covering my pepper plants. I'm probably being stupid but am too lazy to go out now. Bell peppers are shot but for some reason the Jalapenos haven't minded this cold weather. Wunderground PWS have some low numbers scattered about even down near La Plata etc. Dews shouldn't drop much more so might be a bottom early type of night but today was colder than expected maybe tonight will overperform. Some of the stations east of I-95 have dews in the upper 20s to near 30...might support temps dropping right at 32 if we can get the wind to just die.

Head out towards Davidsonville, western PG county, low spots in and around the patuxent, etc and there are plenty of areas that cool well. I had frost on my car this morning.

AvantHiatus Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 It's such a garbage reporting station. Located downwind of a small urban heat island and is close to the Potomac River that is still holding heat from the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 It's such a garbage reporting station. It is a special case but there are a lot of terrible reporting stations. BWI is Baltimore's record book? OK sure. I still come to the conclusion that it's not super unrepresentative of the immediate downtown area. That might not be good enough.

Ian Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 WTOP in upper NW wxbug is 39 tho, that's a good diff over a short distance. The DCA issue is at its most extreme early and late cold season. Or those nights when it's 97 with an 86 dewpoint at midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
