Looks like IAD will do it too for 85F...they've at least tied the earliest for 84F.

Full cover here still

Yeah, I like the 2% hatched. It reflects that there right now is an overall low threat of tornadoes in this area, but if we were to get one, it could be a strong one.

Amazing what strong mixing with a warm low-level airmass can do coupled with WAA ongoing in the low levels as well.

Yeah, that was impressive. I agree that there is a lot of uncertainty, but there does seem to be some consensus that the best shot at storms and severe weather tomorrow is north of I-66 in VA and Route 50 in MD. And the real threat might be another county north.

Cold yes but really just two one day cold snaps and nowhere near as impressive as what’s been going on with this heatwave! We have set 3 record highs, 2 record high minimums already and tomorrow the point click has been upped to 89. We had 88.5 this afternoon here, which was nearly 6 degrees above the forecast and 7 above the RDU record! For the piedmont looks like Friday morning will be around freezing and one night around freezing and one night in the upper 20s next week before it warms up. Hardly a historic event, but a significant shock after this stretch of summer in early March. If RDU hits 90 tomorrow it will be exactly 2 months before average, as the average first 90 reading of the season is May 11… RAH commented that this weather and heights are more typical of early July!

Doors and windows open, 76F in the house.

The latest forecast for me (Gaithersburg) STILL has no mention of severe for tomorrow, doesn't mention thunder at all! I checked the point-and-clicks for several other cities/counties in our area... nada.

Crash and burn ineedsnow

come visit us in the severe thread!

Earliest 84F ever for BWI.

65 here above 12" pack, but almost no wind and 100% sun. Earliest time we've gone above 60 prior to March 18, when the 2012 heat blast arrived.

Down to about 20 percent coverage in the back yard. With the dews and rain coming, she gone.

The didn’t hit 80 in feb 2018? I think it was 2018. One of the feb in the late 2010’s tha completely torched. I swear they hit 80.

March is not winter, has no bearing on the grade which is obviously an A

The storm near Yorkville would be a problem if it gets its act together and pukes some hail

Might (or might NOT) be a bit stormy tomorrow. From LWX's latest AFD: (snip) KEY MESSAGE 1...Severe Thunderstorms are possible Wednesday afternoon and evening. Tomorrow`s forecast is an extremely challenging one. At this point, there`s a wide range of potential solutions on the table, with very low confidence in which solution will ultimately verify. Forecast details follow below...

Another blip now near Bloomington. Deep in the warm sector. This one is over 30k high. Worth watching.

My neighborhood is where spring goes to die.

Pushing 90 here lol. 88 and 87 at the weather stations by me.

Really no complaints. Locally the blizzard was disappointing but I was expecting that here given location (though the screw job was a bit worse than I was expecting). But it was a solid winter. The only thing I will hate about the winter is our dog's condition and mental health plummeted. Around January he refused to go outside anymore and really became more depressed. We really wish we had done the wheel chair early last summer instead of late in the fall because he was so excited using it. But then the cold/snow/ice came and that was it. Unfortunately to the point (plus with kidney failure which came out of nowhere) we have to put him down in 3 weeks. I'll always wonder if the cold/ice/snow played a big roll in this or if just an unfortunate coincidence. But several snow events here, most small, one big one in January then a few moderate events. The scenes outside after the snows...beautiful. So no complaints here

How about maybe have one analysis for Meteorological Winter and one for Astronomical Winter?

I prefer non-live footage. Streaming just adds distraction. If anyone does stream, definitely don’t pay attention to chatters. They will try to kill you!

Outside, my neighbor's tree has started shedding pollen all over my car. Another neighbor's daffodils may bloom soon. My shaded trees' buds still haven't burst, though.

Do you still work at the WCSU Weather Center?
