WinterWxLuvr Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 There's always a glass half empty poster... Yeah, they're the ones hoping for snow...........lol. Seriously, this probably has the highest bust potential of any of the snows this year, IMO. I wouldn't be shocked at all to see almost all rain.

yoda Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 12z NAM still looks okay for most of us in N VA/DC/MD DCA is barely a snow sounding at 15z... flip is imminent at that time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 What are temps in the column at this time? 32-33 at the surface. We actually get nam'd with the high res. Pretty heavy snow from 9-15z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WEATHER53 Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 DCA got all the way to 39 last night. Not worried! But it's a dry heat down there, DCA rh like 55% while Annapolis, Andrews 80%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I'm going to hug the hires nam until something comes in better. It's a best case scenario with all the important stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WEATHER53 Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Baro is good but would like it to hold around 30.35 and not go up or down much. Evap is going to be like 50% of the spread from dew vs temp so that will help. The ground is still likely colder than average for right now so with it at night it will accumulate. This looks good form what I just described, 2 to possibly 4" for around and outside Beltway, 1-2" at the Washington Monument and the usual trace at DCA.

Bob Chill Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I-70 N never flips to rain. DCA on the line @ 15z but the line only jumps to i-70 by 18z. Overdone map but pretty nonetheless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'mon, everyone knows the Potomac River is such a huge heat reservoir - it stores more heat than all the oceans combined. And don't forget UHI - they've got more concrete than Tokyo!

clskinsfan Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 What are temps in the column at this time? Hi Res is a nice hit for us. As long as we keep our expectations in check.

Bob Chill Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I'll take the under for most folks not in the Winchester-Mt das-Westminster-Mt Parkton corridor. I said sometime yesterday that my yard looked good for 1-2" with more upside than downside. That's where my head is at unless things keep juicing up and cooling down today. I watched my temps yesterday evening and I dropped from 46 to the low 30's pretty quickly. If my yard is still in the upper 30's when I go to bed tonight then there's an obvious big flag.

Probably 1" in DC proper. 0.1" for a little portion of northern Virginia along the Potomac where big shiny metal things land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
