Long story there... 31.1F / 26F in Clarksburg on a south wind of 7mph. If I look really hard, there's a slight bumpiness to the wet ground meaning there's been some sleet. It's raining and below freezing but I can't report ZR since the ground is still above freezing. What's your 4" soil temp??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want to be right -- you always want to be right. You use words like "dry air," "clueless," "pathetic." You use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending yourself. You're becoming a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very observations that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide them. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a meteorology degree and stand the post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think. That's absolutely tremendous. Wonder how many people get the reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far it is basically as crappy as a weather day can get. Lets see what happens with the batch the HRRR has coming through later. Same here in Round Hill. 31 and a few icicles on the deck rails but my truck, the grass, and even the deck table have no ice. When a heavier batch of rain moves in there has been a few sleet pellets mixed in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
das Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Looks like dews and temps will settle at 29F in the next 30 minutes here in Clarksburg. If we can keep precip going, even just a drizzle, and the S winds stay light and mostly off the surface, should make for an interesting event. Temp down to 30.4F and Dew is up to 27F.

Problem was it was icy also and accidents all over the place. I managed to get in on time because I left super early but 2/3 of our staff was late and some very very late. We were just trying to babysit and house students all morning as they also staggered in late. It ended up being a wasted day. After that they had a delay every time there was a breeze the rest of that winter. Yeah things like that seem to oscillate back and forth between not enough caution and way overdoing it sometimes. On a related topic, it still kind of miffs me at the lack of road treatment when we got that light snow a couple days before the blizzard last year, even with advisories up. I get that focus was on the big event, but to have main roads be a sheet of ice was really bad. Guess it's particularly annoying to me since I got stuck in that, a 20-30 min trip turned into 2 hours of white-knuckle tense driving! On topic, light rain here, dreary Saturday. Exactly one week ago that heavy band of snow had just begun going through! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey - getting older every day is better than the other option, which I'd rather not contemplate (not getting older every day means your 6' under). Don't knock it! Spoken from someone who just recently qualified to get the Senior Citizens Discount at Bob Evans! And how does AARP know when we all get over 50? They must have a hell of a database!

RDM Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Stuck at 33F/31dp since 8am. .06" thus far. Needed heavier rates earlier to cool things down enough. Never happened in my neck of the woods. Congrats to those who managed to get something/anything out of this worth noting. Radar out over the OV looks like it could bring in a little more later today, but going to be too warm to get excited about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
