Not sure I believe that but I do think MDT sets another daily low max. Also says MDT is on watch for a record low Monday AM. About another 1/4" of rain across the board for LSV. Thinking tomorrow may be as cool as today if not a touch cooler, especially east of I-81 - reason being, it sure looks to me like tomorrow is going to be wetter than today. Wouldn't be at all surprised if tomorrow ends up quite rainy in eastern areas. Rain is blossoming coming up out of MD/VA now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I actually think the GFS is underdone in qpf totals and you, Voyager, etc....are counting between 1/2 and 1" more. Just an opinion. But even over here I think it is wet all night and all day tomorrow. Think tonight some areas see outright downpours. More general light/persistent rain tomorrow if it comes to happen.

Just as notable, temp has fallen from 50 to 48. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More importantly, if the high of 52 at MDT holds, it will be the latest day on record with a high of 52 or lower. We hit 51 so far at PIT, which won’t set any of that sort of record, though it’s a daily record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My high (so far) today was 49.6 so I suppose the "official" would be 50 since I believe the NWS rounds up or down accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would have had to top out at 44 at PIT to set that particular type of record, which was of course never in the cards, but I’m happy someone in my home state got to experience history. And the 51 at PIT is the coldest high temperature on this date or later since 1956. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I dislike the white stuff, I enjoy the tracking, and then want the highest total I can get if it's going to happen. Same with this historic cold. I didn't want it, but once it became likely, then I want to break the record. The fact that it would be recorded as a 50 is a bummer, because a high in the 40's this late is quite rare.

RE: in 2015 it was warmer every day between Dec 22 and 27 than it was today. The fact that we are experiencing the two coldest days (high temp) immediately leading up to Memorial day, ever in record keeping, is the big news!

canderson Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 I don’t like disagreeing with CTP but I really don’t see much precip at all hitting MDT. Maybe a tenth of an inch sometime in the mornings but it looks dry after like noon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked out wunderground and saw it was indeed east of you. Sorry about that. We have almost nothing on radar here but the drizzle is so hard to I hear water draining off the roof. Hopefully a drier forecast for tomorrow does not derail the second record breaker possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 On and off rain over here. 45. Still think mdt might breach 50 when the rain stops. Should hopefully hold on for another record though. Edit-noticed Hrrr, nam, gfs all keep rain over or near mdt much of the day so hopefully the flip flops stop and it seals our record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
