MN Transplant Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 9 minutes ago, Eskimo Joe said: While I'm ready for warmth, I think the guidance is a bit too warm for the next 24 hours. The ground is cold and wet from the snow melt so I'd bet we bust about 2 - 5 degrees too cold for today's warmth. The downtown areas will certainly spike but I think tomorrow is the day we really get that springlike feel in the air. 70.7 currently. NWS has my high at 72. NAM has already busted low. The GFS MOS is on the high side and may be unattainable (80 tomorrow at DCA). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea today is proving my wet, cold ground theory wrong. I keep on using theorems that worked in PA and trying to apply them down here in MD and VA.

MN Transplant Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Topped off at 79.0, back down to 78.1. Probably not enough time to make a run at 80 today at home. Ridiculous, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
