Kmlwx Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 That's pretty much every Thanksgiving it seems. I think last year it might have been sunny though. I don't remember last Thanksgiving here lol. I think either 1-2 Thanksgivings ago a massive cold front came through around when we were sitting down for dinner and temps went from 60s/maybe 70 to like 40.

Avdave Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 some snow blowing around in western Md and WV this morning. Even as far east at MRB some flakes were observed. Keysers ridge has a nice coating on the ground now highest wind gust here so far is 38mph, just shy of tropical storm force Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keysers ridge has a nice coating on the ground now highest wind gust here so far is 38mph, just shy of tropical storm force The 12Z gfs gies us a dusting as a vort shears though on the 5th (I think it was the 5th). Not the kind of clipper to do much and one in which the vort has to stay to our south as it comes east. After our rains coming with the next strong front, the pattern looks pretty dry.

Ender Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Some clouds keeping temps from plummeting so far at DCA. Yup, it's the clouds. Gott'a be the clouds keeping DCA warm. ;-) Only 34 here, but in my case I think it's the heated air leaking out of my drafty doors that's keeping us warm.

Dr No Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 That place it amazing- it just doesn't get below freezing there. Regional weenies should start a petition for the NWS to move the official observing station back into the city. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
