Rib Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 You don't see 60 degree drops in temperature in the same day very often but it looks like some of us could get close or even exceed a 60 degree drop in temperature tonight. Currently 38. We had some wet snow an hour ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BucksCO_PA Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Plenty of faster or at least similarly fast ones I'm sure. Just off the top of my head JAN 1996 & JAN 1978 were rapid snow melts with even more snow on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 The wxsim is printing out a low in the AM here in NW Chesco of -0.1 (I have only recorded one such day here in the 10 years at this location) - the current record for Chester County tomorrow AM is +1 from 1981 - today's record is -4 set way back in 1904 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrodd321 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 That was the fastest I've ever seen 7/8" of snow melt in one day. Unbelievable. We looked like buffalo yesterday morning now this morning there wasn't one patch left on the grass. Now comes the epic freeze tonight. 37 right now on the way down.

Ralph Wiggum Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I don't see it getting back to -4 that we had on Saturday morning. Or can it? I'm not seeing it either though anything is possible.

DarthDoppler Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I think with this air mass the higher terrain will get the lowest temperatures. The warm air returns so fast tomorrow night will likely not be as cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwilson Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Woke up to 54F, 27F right now (warmer than I thought it would be at this time). The wind is howling, though. It is -1F at my "other" home, so I'm kind of glad to be avoiding that extreme cold (schools closed tomorrow as well, apparently). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiehardFF Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I'm not seeing it either though anything is possible. Mos data keeps coming in a degree or two warmer each run. RAP and HRRR think so. MOS seems a little off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bricktamland Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 RAP and HRRR think so. MOS seems a little off. Yeah, HRRR pushes sub-zero temps all the way to PHL, not buying that at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violentweatherfan Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I'm not saying bust, but for Lower Bucks County I don't think the area will get below +8°...for the Midwest and Ohio Valley definitely impressive cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
