WxUSAF Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 38 at home, BWI down to 34. BWI has been a cold spot this fall. Not sure if that’s random variance or if they adjusted something about the measurements. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paleocene Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 Avoiding a frost thus far inside the beltway, though we dropped to 40ish in Silver Spring. CPC outlooks look warm and dry the next 6-14 days. Glorious end to this month, unlike September? Unless of course you like rain. Not much of that coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking around a little,,,,looks like York made 30f and Frederick was 32. Small pocket of freezing; might be legit. Good catch @WxUSAF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midatlanticweather Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 38.7 for a low.. When I went walking, I found a very spotty frost this morning. It was a glorious walk in the sun and little breeze!

TheClimateChanger Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 2 hours ago, WxUSAF said: That was a record low at BWI and earliest first freeze since 2006. Something is amiss. I never see ASOS reporting 100% without some sort of weather (fog, rain, snow), and they claim it actually dropped 2F below the minimum hourly dewpoint reading. Looking at the climate stats, BWI is running 2-4F cooler [relative to its average] than all of the surrounding sites for weeks on end. What is going on here?

If BWI was running 2-4F warmer [relative to average] than all other sites, you can guarantee, there'd be 100 posts about this at this point. Now, it's crickets - although I do see @WxUSAFhas also raised some questions about the readings recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always complaining about the BWI "heat island" - you want to know what temperatures would look like if we continued to measure the old way (i.e., on the rooftop of the Baltimore Commons)? Well I have an idea, let's look at the actual data. They kept that site open until 2000, before retiring it because of how much hotter is was! There were dozens of more days in the 90s and 100s, and with minima above 80F. When you look at the historic records, THIS is what you are looking at. Of course, the source below somehow spins that into "climate change is a hoax" even though common sense would dictate the opposite conclusion... that is, the old records were of poorer quality and warm biased. The BWI "urban heat island" effect is mostly made up. The Inner Harbor ASOS is always warmer [which is probably a better measure for the city of Baltimore, you know the place were most people live and work!], and lately has been MUCH warmer. Source: How not to measure temperature, part 48. NOAA cites errors with Baltimore's Rooftop USHCN Station – Watts Up With That? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
