Hurricane Agnes Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Might as well kick off meteorological spring with a soon-to-be-transient arctic air mass overhead. Bottomed out here this morning at 26 and it's currently 27 and clear but breezy. Dews are relative dry in the low teens around this area (mine is 13F).

KamuSnow Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Don't know about elsewhere, but it's been pretty windy here at times tonight. Forecast was for 10-15 mph winds but there had to be gusts up to 25 or 30. We had a kettle fire tonight and the wind in the trees was roaring at times.

The Iceman Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Marginal risk today for severe thunderstorms in the area: ...Central Appalachians to Mid-Atlantic this afternoon/evening... A northern stream shortwave trough will translate from the MS Valley to the OH Valley today, and reach the Mid-Atlantic and New England tonight. An associated surface cyclone will deepen from the lower Great Lakes into New England, while a trailing cold front moves eastward off the Mid-Atlantic coast by early tonight. In the wake of weakening morning convection and a remnant MCV near southern WV, a few cloud breaks and some low-level warming/moistening will contribute to weak buoyancy in advance of the cold front from WV into parts of PA/VA this afternoon/evening. Broken bands of storms will be possible this afternoon along the front, and the convection will spread east-northeastward toward NJ by late evening. Assuming sufficient near-surface destabilization, wind profiles will favor organized bowing segments and supercells with some threat for isolated damaging gusts and a tornado or two.

Maybe it's a good sign...for all the severe weather this area had last year, I didn't get any good photos of lightning. Need something more than just big rain producers.

Hurricane Agnes Posted March 4, 2020 Author Share Posted March 4, 2020 That was like a gust front and then it was gone. Picked up 0.23" of rain (highest rate was 0.64"/hr) so far, although there is still some light rain behind it that may add to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Iceman Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Had a gust to 48 MPH at my house, not too shabby. Picked up .4" of rain. We get the whiff this weekend that will bring some light rain/possibly snow tv showers. Next system after that looks to in the March 12th time frame. Since I'll be in Florida at that time, I'm predicting this is the one we finally get nailed with snow. Probably a MECS like the 6z GFS. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
