Just light rain. No accretion. Sun is partially out. Evap cooling did its thing though. You have to watch car thermometers... they are not always accurate when you first start the car and need time to calibrate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErinInTheSky Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 For real though, for an event I expected literally nothing from, for a decent glazing in Gaithersburg and lots of sleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paleocene Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 A light rain, really just a sprinkle, at 32 degrees in College Park. The most interesting thing going on is the three hour early rush hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baltimoreguy Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 A skim of ice in Towson - my poor kid wiped out on our front walk. Has pretty much stopped for now, but radar looks like one more band might be coming through. I've heard just rain downtown, it's 29 degrees here, maybe above freezing down there.

Yea and wave "2" could be bringing some better mid-levels with it. Not for my yard but I'm already prepared for the northern crew's "mod snow" obs later.

Eskimo Joe Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Looks like a second area of precip building down for I-70 and points north. Gotta keep precipitating to keep this wedge in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cae Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 With the sun going down, round 2 could be icier even if temps don't drop much. The air has been below freezing all day today but dark surfaces (even the untreated ones) clearly were not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jebman Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Dale City 34 degrees, Just ordinary light rain. No ice. No need to worry about roads. Rain will taper off by 6pm. No ice tonight, and upper 40s tomorrow, much milder late week. I am breaking out the shorts, beer, and the barbeque Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jebman Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Dale City is low elevation, we get off easy in these type of setups. Temps are safely above freezing, no ice and just regular rain. At any rate, tomorrow will be warmer. Arctic air is out, Pacific air is in. January Thaw is in session lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
