    What kind of weathermen schedule a conference in the heart of snow climo ?
  3. WVclimo
    The model has 3 consecutive nights of below zero weather here N/W of the metros. Probably have to go back quite a ways to find the last time that happened.

    Only 0.18” here this week. Hoping today produces.

    The temps are the weeniest part of that depiction. Colder than Feb 2003. Colder than the second storm in Jan 1987. Almost on par with the blizzard at the end of Jan 1966.

    Philly got another 3” on the 12th, after the blizzard. I visited the city a week or so later when the flooding happened. Can still recall seeing the Schuylkill River at bank full. What an extreme month that was !

    After the main course on 1/7-8, we picked up another 4-6” event on the 12th. It was actually forecasted to be 8-12” but was still a great “dessert.”

    Can we please get a 1/12/96 repeat right after this ?

    Some of the remarks in that PNS are great. 5-6’ drifts across northern MD, 40 mph winds in Loudoun County, and 46” on the ground in Mt Storm, WV.

    Made it to 44° this afternoon. MRB was -2.8 for the month before today. That negative departure is gonna take a beating the last 4 days of the month, but we should end up -0.5 to -1.0.

    Snowfall in January is a pretty good bet. IAD has had 1 season in the past 50 years without measurable snow in January (2023). At BWI it has happened twice (2006, 2023). Even DCA has had some kind of accumulation in 45 of the past 50 years.

    12Z GFS loses the -NAO post-200 hrs. Then comes up with a snowstorm for the beaches on 1/9.

    I mentioned it the other day, but that early January 1970 cold snap was really frigid. I have some great memories of sledding on snow as hard as concrete. Here was the peak of it at BWI December 1963 is on that list too and finished around -10 for the month.

    Fantasy-range GFS disagrees

    Recent runs of the globals say those historically cold analogs like Jan 1977 may have been on to something.
  16. WVclimo
    IAD picked up another 6.3” on 1/30, after the surprise snow the previous week.

    Dulles has had 18 January storms of 6”+ since 1964. Eight of those came in 4 winters (2 each in 1966, 1987, 1996 and 2000.)

    Then some front end action from an OV low on the 7th followed by freezing temperatures down to central FL. Good start to what looks like a wintry January.

    Long range OP ECMWF says “what SE ridge?”
  20. WVclimo
    13° now, on the way to a forecast low of 10.
  21. WVclimo
    High temp was 31. Dropping like a rock now with ideal radiational cooling conditions. Down to 22.
  22. WVclimo
    A few flurries are blowing around this morning. This is the ninth day this month with some amount of flakes here.
  23. WVclimo
    That’s more than double the amount of the annual record for Savannah, GA.
  24. WVclimo
    Several of those analogs had historic cold snaps in the Mid-Atlantic. January 1970, 1977, 1981 (along with 1985.)

    It’s been a nice start to winter here. MRB is -2.6° for the month with only a few mild days so far. Should be at about -3.5° heading into Christmas Eve. Precip has been above normal and it’s already snowed a couple of inches. Happy to see the moisture showing up after such a dry year.
