CAPE Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Down to 39 here after hitting 40 last hour. Cold, dry air mass. Mild and (maybe)wet coming in a few days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BWI hit 40 intra-hour. Still pathetic that the last full day of winter at 40 degrees was a top 5’ish coldest day of the fall and winter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 It is 35.0/7.2 here at 3 pm. Wind still NW at 6 gusting 13, so WC running 30/26. It was chilly this morning when I did a 3 mile walk, 20.7/3.8 with NW winds 11 gusting 23 at 8 am. WC's were around 5-9 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vastateofmind Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 We reached a high of 45 this afternoon...but I'm sure as hell glad that I did the first initial full front/backyard mowing yesterday, when it was 5-7 degrees warmer. I'm honestly trying to remember, and I don't think I've ever had to do the "first big mow" this early in the season...usually ended up being first week of April in the past 10-20 years. But, tons of weeds, and early patches of high, neon-green spurts of grass growth meant that the whole thing required an even cut at this point. All good. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxdude64 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 We rolling out this way, winds went calm around 5 am and temp has dropped like a rock. At 7 am it was 16.8 degrees, DP 9.0 and that sets a new record for the date, breaking the 17 degree reading from 1981. Temp is STILL dropping and currently at 7:45 am it is 16.6 degrees. Likely a new record for tomorrow. BTW, at 5 am it was 22.1 degrees. EDIT-just realized that I DID break the 'cool max' for the date too, 35.6 degrees was high, old mark was 36 degrees from 1981. Had it backwards there for a minute lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Just glanced at Cannan, they have a legit shot at zero, currently 2 degrees and falling. EDIT- nope, they turned the corner and heading up, 2 degrees will be the low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Still a huge difference on the globals for Friday/Saturday. The Euro is gross, dragging down a front and leaving us in the 40s/50s, while the GFS delays the front and then sends it back north with the next low, leaving us in the 70s.

GFS/Euro/ICON/Meteoblue from Windy LWX .LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... Uncertainty remains wrt the temp forecast Friday into Saturday due to where a frontal boundary will stall. Models continue to show a 20- 30 degree spread in high temps during this period. With the front stalled nearby, a sfc low will track along the front. Some guidance shows a wedge of stable/cool air to the east of the Alleghenies with highs only staying in the 50s north of I-66 on Friday, however some guidance erodes the wedge rather quickly. Ensemble guidance and the NBM show the most likely solution at this time is the front stalls somewhere near the FA and a gradient in temperatures exists with near 70 across the southern areas and upper 50s along the Mason- Dixon. Should a warmer scenario come to fruition, the potential for enough instability rooted in the boundary layer to result in surface-based convection/thunderstorms, especially during the Saturday period as the strong sw trough moves through. Given favorable mid-level lapse rates of 6-7C/km coupled with 60-70 kts in the 850-700 mb layer, there could be the attendant risk for severe weather if this scenario works out given the strong dynamics and shear at play. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
