wxdude64 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Just did my monthly numbers so I have it handy here. 13 mornings in the teens and another 4 in single digits, over half the month. 18.6 when averaged out over the month. 6 days never rose above the freezing mark and another 5 days just clipped it topping out at 33. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George BM Posted February 1, 2022 Author Share Posted February 1, 2022 2 hours ago, MN Transplant said: I know all eyes are on the precipitation, but I can’t get over what the 3km NAM is trying to do tomorrow. It holds us all near freezing all day, while the Euro, GFS, and HRRR all take us to the upper 40s. 56 minutes ago, WxUSAF said: @MN Transplant 12z 3km NAM still has near freezing high temps for tomorrow. 6z Euro was mid-upper 40s, 6z GFS was mid 40s. Non-expert thought: I wonder whether this has to do with how the NAM is handling the interaction between the snowpack over the Delmarva and the near surface air and how it's handling the albedo effect. Skew-t's on the 3km NAM suggest that low clouds move in from the east overnight/pre-dawn tomorrow morning and hang around all day while none of the other models do this.

WEATHER53 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Gonna predict DCA continues the streak by hitting 32 at the 8:52pm obs with an overnight low of 28. I still have 1” of fluffy snow in full shaded ground areas. The cold overnights seem to prevent any melting even with a fully shaded High of 40. it not icy nor refrozen.

vastateofmind Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Our "short term forecast" was just upgraded to a "dense fog advisory" until 10 a.m. I'll buy that...couldn't even tell it was foggy out just prior to daybreak an hour ago but now the fog seems to keep rolling in heavier and lower by the minute.

Terrapinwx Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Despite the strong sun the snowpack has held up well today. Temperatures have been steady in the mid 30s with a light breeze coming off the bay . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowmagnet Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I kinda like this warmish afternoon. 46 in Fairfax. Not looking forward to warm rain turning to cold rain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 High of 44 here today and snow cover surprisingly hanging in but thinning out. The cold leading in and cold/frozen ground has helped. I have seen other instances with 5-6" of snow and it goes much quicker with a couple days well above freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nj2va Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 34 with light rain. I hope at least some of the snowpack survives through tomorrow night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WEATHER53 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 It was 40 at 10 which is warmest for time since 1/2..Tomorrow just 2nd time since 1/2 not below freezing and the consecutive streak ends also. This 30 day run 1/3-2/2 is impressive but short of historic. Perhaps close to Top 20 since 1970 but unsure. Close to -4.5 during this run. We dont get a lot of that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
