Its getting real 44 That station is right across Jacks Mountain/16 from me. I can verify synoptic wind to the likes I’ve never seen before. Even here we’ve gusted 60-70 multiple times. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucketts Life Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 59/47 with heavy wind Lost power at the house around 5:30. Saw a tree and many branches down on way to McLean. Perhaps the NAM was right with the call for 60+ mph winds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlizzardNole Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Wow this wind is roaring! PAX at 70 degrees at 6 am while Cumberland 37. Falling quickly thru low 50s here. A house two streets over has one of those motion detector lights over the garage door as bright as the dang sun, and it keeps coming on from wind. I feel for the two houses directly across the street from that darn thing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Trace of rain, and even that is a stretch. Moderate gusts. A 16 degree drop over two hours. Pretty much a nothing-burger here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 That squall line hit literally as I was pulling out of my driveway. Clouds looked impressive. It poured for about 3-4 miles but once I got a bit further south there was just scattered rain and nothing heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GramaxRefugee Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Only about 0.10" overnight. Very windy morning, but it seems like the trees have suffered so much this season that they don't have much junk and dead branches left to blow down. Temp about 51f.

Eskimo Joe Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 14 hours ago, MN Transplant said: The models almost always way over do the warm sector wind gusts. It just doesn't mix down efficiently. Maybe if you get in the right spot during a heavier shower. I bet the better winds will be around sunrise out of the NW.

CAPE Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 lol 10% chance of flurries here this afternoon. Rare to see that in a forecast- usually not mentioned unless it's at least 20. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 We do wind well around here. Mount Holly snippet- The other big story to note will be the winds. This will actually be quite remarkable given the winds we just had and that we went light and variable overnight last night - another quick turnaround. Strong southwesterly flow ahead of the Arctic cold front will quickly mix down to the surface after sunrise. With the dry air noted earlier, steep low-level lapse rates, actually not too far off the dry adiabatic lapse rate in fact, will allow for deep vertical mixing, carrying down winds from well above 1500 feet from 850 to the 700 mb level. With a strong ll-jet moving beneath this shortwave, we will see strong winds glide right down to the surface. Ended up dividing the Wind Advisory into two segments, starting the western portion over the Poconos and Lehigh Valley at 10 am, and the rest of the area at 1 pm, both of these advisories lasting through 10 pm. Wind gusts up to 45 to 50 mph will be possible across the entire forecast area, likely highest associated with and behind any showers and snow squalls that form. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heat and winds - the Mid Atlantic’s two over performers. Already gusting into the 30s out here. My mom is worried about my youngest nieces and nephews getting blown away outside later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
