so_whats_happening Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 69/43/10 Thought sw flow would keep them warmer kinda worried I went a little too low on the high but we will see how it plays out. Not sure about topography yet so winds will be interesting. Can't wait to see how later this week goes good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Warm and windy was the way to go today. Already 70/45/14 and there's still room to go higher, especially with the maximum temperature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wi_fl_wx Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 It looked like the low was going to tank before the surface layer mixed out. Looks like Beckley will be less friendly to inversions than El Paso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ma blizzard Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 climo has 71/45/13 which is interesting since there was a 16 mph hourly reading and the climo report only reports 15 mph as the max wind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quincy Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Yep, something's definitely wrong there. They had a day of missing data last week too. I hope we don't have issues with this site... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 73/46/13 It could go warmer tomorrow, but after a mediocre forecast today, didn't want to go out on too much of a limb. The low looks to be a tick milder that this morning and winds about the same, so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wi_fl_wx Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 74/47/14/0 Who knows what the low will do...winds should quiet down enough to get to the 40s at least for a little while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoistWx Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 73/49/13/0.00 Kind of worried I went a little too high on the low, but dew points looked like they would be a little higher tonight. Was also hoping the wind doesn't die down too much, but not holding my breath. Bit of a risk, but I could see it paying off (or going horribly wrong). For the high, I'm thinking high clouds inhibit it from pushing too far into the 70s. Always takes me a couple of days to acclimate to a city, so, we'll see.

If it wasn't for the USL being so low (42, 41), I would have definitely swayed about that high. Hard to believe it busts back to back mornings, but most trends favor a higher low temperature. LAMP hasn't done particularly well with lows there recently, but it only has 53F tonight for a minimum... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAMP was 50F yesterday I think, so it's even warmer today. The odd thing is I'm pretty sure it kept it clear all night too. Like said, I could see it going either way.

so_whats_happening Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 73/48/11 Unsure about winds yet felt confident on it being a little warmer same with the low but kept right in the middle after day 1 which is fine with me. It also seems it takes me after the first to get acclimated to the city Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 53F this hour is now a degree cooler than the same time 24 hours ago. It should be interesting overnight... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wi_fl_wx Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Temperature did all sorts of crazy stuff last hour. Down to 46, back to 49. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoistWx Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 And it looks like we got a low of 41... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
so_whats_happening Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Yep with a sw flow dropped 12 degrees in an hour not sure I have ever seen something like that around here. Guess it is because it is drier than it normally would be. Time to just go all out random in this city and hope for the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

so_whats_happening Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I already don't understand the low in this city. I think it is a safe bet to say this place resides in a valley within the mountain range so lows will be the fun temp to forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxBlue Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Had 73/49/13. Welp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Climo report has 74, but the 22z hourly was 75. Kind of odd, since the report was issued at 2221z. Anyway, the max wind so far is 11 knots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OHweather Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 I'm sure the high will go down as 75. As for the lows so far...yikes. Edit: high was 76 per the 0z METAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

so_whats_happening Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 73/52/13/0.03 Warmth maybe a little over done, clouds here and there overnight should keep it warmer but figured still a drop is possible. Winds about the same and went with some precipitation just before the time is up tomorrow night but didn't think too much would fall. Not much convection being mountainous and overnight but hey who knows anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHweather Posted March 10, 2016 Author Share Posted March 10, 2016 Went 77/52/17/0 There will be more high clouds tonight, but they clearly radiate well and any periods of clearer skies would let temps quickly fall. GFS and NAM MOS both had 52 so I felt comfortable going for that. As for the high tomorrow...a good amount of sun should make it through the cirrus, and the NAM and GFS (and Euro) both suggested at least a couple of degrees warmer than today. The clouds may get thick enough to stop them from warming as much as they could so I felt nervous going any higher than 77. The Euro didn't get rain all that close by 6z tomorrow night so rode with that and went for 0 precip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 75/54/16/0 Bust potential in every category... High: Tempted to go warmer again, but cloudiness could throw a wrench. If it stays clear/mostly clear, 76-77 could be attained. Low: Flip-flop from last night. Now the USL is warm, while all other guidance is low. HRRR is also low, but HRRR is running 3-5F too cool compared to obs. Could see anything from upper 40s to upper 50s, but kind of went in the middle. Wind: The mountains may come into play, as I could see channeling leading to a flukey high wind given the profiles aloft, although numerical guidance seems to favor not much higher than today, so we'll see. Precip: Went with zilch since my preferred guidance keeps BKW dry through 06z FRI, including the Euro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
