CAPE Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 High of 70. Now down to 55. The backdoor front/easterly flow changes things quickly this time of year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dailylurker Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 It will be interesting to see rain actually make it into the area. I've been watching it miss us to the north for a week. It hasn't been easy to get rain into the area for the past year. Models seem to like 1-2" today and tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Set a new record high and a 'warm minimum' for date. High 84.6 degrees, breaking 2023's 82.2 degrees. Low was 59.0, shattering 1997's 53 degree reading. Least it rained a bit this morning (0.13 in gauge at 7 am). First +80 of the year, first day it felt muggy too, blah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowfan Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Sharp temp gradients today. Could see 30 degree swings in a 100 mile distance? Already have Fredericksburg at 76 and Dale City at 59. That is just under 30 miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah tonight still looks on track although I95 and points south look most favored. Bust from potential 1.5-2” is lack of storms yesterday and morning rain today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katabatic Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 0.20" so far with the temp falling from 59.4 at midnight to 44.2 now. Raw day with low ceilings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLPressure Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 I have to lead an outdoor program this evening in the Mt. Vernon are of Fairfax county. With the waffling of the precipitation potential, what are thoughts on odds of steady, moderate, rain between 6 and 9 pm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks mostly hit-and-miss showery until probably after your event when more sustained rain moves in. But, of course, if you are in the "hit" area prior to that, you'll be wet.

stormy Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 10 inches of snow on April 12 would be quite a seasonal wrap-up. The GFS screams nor-easter blast!!!!!! Reminiscent of 9 inches on 4-7 -71.......................... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
