WxUSAF Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 18z hrrr says 1F IMBY early Saturday. I’ll take the over. Any single digit temp would be very impressive without snow cover. February 2019 was the last single digit temp at BWI and that did come with a light snow cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a link to a source that lists what the warning hierarchy is to determine which color we see on the NWS map when multiple warnings/advisories are in place? Like, flash flood and tornado warnings will always be primary, but between a winter weather advisory and a wind chill advisory, for example, which one takes precedence on the map? Thanks in advance! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We run a small wood stove inside this particular tent and as long as you keep on top of it I'd say a good 30F warmer than ambient can be expected. In this particular case the biggest concern will be keeping the tent standing in the wind. We will be using 18" rebar stakes and also lasso the upwind guy lines to large fieldstone that is all over the area. And if worse comes to worse we hop in the truck and head home! One benefit vs real mountaineering.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping to get the tent up before the cold air slams through which looks to be around 11am-12pm. WSW says wind chills of -35F, it's gonna be an epic campout. One of our game cams transmitted a pic this morning that looked like maybe 4" on the ground already. We're going to try for three nights. Really it depends on how well the dog can handle it. I don’t think you are going to beat the front. Hope you do. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthArlington101 Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 While we were bickering I think we missed the EURO becoming the snowiest model with the anafront. It's not a lot but we are clearly desperate, lol. Would whiten the ground for some MD folks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we leave at 5am and traffic on the beltway isn't a mess then we will be on top of the mtn at 9am. 20mins to set up the tent...depends on which model I'm hugging. Windy and 30F is a lot easier than windy and 10F so we'll see... Be sure as long as I have cell service there'll be updates lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, even without any accumulations, it'll just be fun for the temp drop, wind, and snow flying in a squall.
