I am right in between those two obs stations. It is still 37 in downtown balt in the Mt. Vernon neighborhood. That is a seven degree difference in just the five miles between my work and my house. Urban heat island for damn sure. I'm right around those areas too. I'm hoping all this talk of busting will reverse jinx and unbustify us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Temps hit a wall most of this area. They may not really even drop much or for long with precip arrival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
