I was up there for the whole event. 180 miles of snowmobiling. Can't let off on the throttle in 50+ inches without getting stuck. https://photos.app.goo.gl/VGDwQMYsqnwMXVTy6

40.6° -SHRA

Agreed, there is a meager amount of MUCAPE hanging around and with EL's near -35C. Which, if storms can fire, should be able to produce lightning. 850-500 lapse rates are around 8C/KM which isn't half-bad. The storms could be quite "pulsey" as well as the LFC-EL shear is pretty weak, only about 15 kts (Pink lines).

Gusts really starting to pick up here

Ocean gale in full force today, 49 degrees and windy from the south.

It would be a good day for a snowball fight.

If only there was a wiki on Alek-speak. My favorites are “dab” and “jelly”.

Made it to 69 ahead of the clouds moving in

I hope it trends worse....last thing I want is to end up blogging for another marginal situation that doesn't produce. I'm content to be done.

That's how it looked here before the Monday cutter.

Can confirm. My snow climo is 2 inches less than DCA, but there are plenty of days especially in the spring with CAD/NE winds where it's sunny here and 20-30 degrees cooler with mist in DC. A bit of elevation keeps the summer nights less hot as well, at least in the western half of what would be called Central VA. Lynchburg's average July low is 5 degrees cooler than DC's despite an overall warmer climate. It's still hot and humid, but I think it's preferable to NoVA/DC.

bump with an update through yesterday...

I’d like to see the secondary develop more and get more of a CCB versus relying on timing of cold and Precip.

Eh sell for now

finally Weymouth snow. None of this silly fluff bullshit

It sucks ass

This month was the easiest forecast in a while. Persistence + jet 300 miles north due to seasonal progression.

6” in 3 hours at 3,000ft. Still heavy snow.

Hoping for some thunder later tonight. Seems to be some general consensus for a band of showers during the dinner hours, and then a second round of more scattered but also heavier cells closer to midnight. Lapse rates will sharpen a bit as the shortwave swings through, so I don't think that we can rule out some lightning.

This has moved through pretty fast. We really have ripped though.

Lots of support for SNE snow Monday morning

We're just gonna have to get a +3SD ridge with SW flow punching underneath before these models finally, reluctantly stipulate to warming up N-E of the Mason Dixie ... That Euro run's an abomination. 85 in PHL and 35 in BOS and just holds like that for 4 days probably happens

Yes sir. Wish we could score a last one here…especially if it refuses to get nice. 53 degrees here now..not that bad, but it’s cloudy.
