Jebman Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Moderate freezing rain and 29 degrees. I also think I just heard some rolling thunder. Anyone in eastern Prince William hear that?

wxmeddler Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Wen't to check on my FZDZ fest.. I know the wind is coming out of the east because west facing surfaces are dry while everything else is covered in a glaze of ice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 It's gonna be super close for me...I think the majority will slide to my SE but I've been wrong before So is the main area of freezing rain going to stay more south? I really hope so, snow I like freezing rain not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyewall Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Once you lose the cold air feed (as the parent high begins to retreat and the CAD wedge becomes in-situ), freezing rain can become self-limiting. The latent heat of freezing will warm things up and essentially bring it to an end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latent heat of freezing will warm things up and essentially bring it to an end. yes...but in the favored areas here this almost never happens...it is an intransigent wedge.....but yes for many of us this will be the case..I'm already near 31...my time is borrowed....

snow. Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Ya, I'm seriously worried temperatures are going to kill this before it gets started.
