blueapple Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Just stepped out of my South Arlington townhouse. Respectable glaze on bushes, railings, and trees. Sidewalk is icy, but not a rink. I suspect the slush of snow and sleet from earlier left something to cushion the ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted December 9, 2013 Author Share Posted December 9, 2013 nj2va, where are you in arlington? i'm not seeing real fzra accums in rosslyn right now. also, the ground stop at DCA must be over cause i keep thinking i've heard thunder when in fact its just an aircraft. silly wishcasting. I'm in Fairlington. Very little additional accretion here currently since the precip is too heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Light frz rain at 29 degrees. Trees, bushes, fences, cars, all are accumulating ice. The road looks different but I am not sure I really want to risk that treacherous walk to check the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huffwx Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 If you are staying at 30, I think I should do fine here as well. How much have you creeped up? We were at 29. So, 1 degree in a downpour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmeddler Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 lol...DCA from 32 to 34 in 4 minutes http://www.wunderground.com/history/airport/KDCA/2013/12/8/DailyHistory.html In special reports only the temp is reported to the nearest whole degree C. So likely it's only 0.5°C. Still, it's DCA... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hosj III Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I'm folding. We have a nice glaze over every surface in Bethesda except roads, but no way we hit a quarter inch before we rise above freezing. 2nd unverified WSW in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
