NorthArlington101 Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Has there been a day this winter where DCA has stayed under freezing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjammin Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 At the 1985 second inauguration for President Reagan it was 7 degrees at noon, which necessitated having the ceremony in the Capitol Rotunda. I honestly don't know when (ever is a long time) that will happen again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This morning was pretty awesome waking up to fresh snow on the ground and then getting a couple hours of good +SN. Its not that cold either, upper 20s / low 30s. We hit up the sledding hill at waterfront greens and now I'm exhausted. Had to pull the kids on sleds back home, they were out of gas. Looks like we are in for another 6-8" through Wednesday. I've only ever experienced this out west where it basically snows off and on all day. Crazy to think just 20 miles east its bare. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure I drove by your neck of the woods this morning (took the long scenic way coming back from Lowe’s in Oakland) as I saw a few ice fishers out on one of the coves. Yeah, latest from LWX has 6-8” through Wednesday which would be fantastic. I’ve gotten 9” since Friday afternoon’s snowfall....a great stretch of winter here.

dailylurker Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 55 minutes ago, MN Transplant said: Same. Best January event? I took my drone up to 300' and took a look around at the clouds. I caught a good picture of an isolated snow shower to my north. It had that jellyfish look to it. It was the most exciting snow event of the season so far.

I honestly don't know when (ever is a long time) that will happen again. The night before the cancellation I experienced -2 temp at 1am and 30mph winds. The old scale wind chill was like -40. Friend up near Sugarloaf said he was -7 with sustained 35 and like -60 old scale. The winds really let up quick after 1am but never died complete and I hit -6 which was tied in 94. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midatlanticweather Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Little fun with the Temps and wind. Small gust caused Temps to rise earlier this morning, then we went back to calm and I am at the lowest temperature of the day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
