24 hour rainfall of 0.67”. Wettest day here since August 23
-
Heat records tomorrow in this area are probably safe. Record for the date at Martinsburg is 98 from 1927; one of 3 consecutive high temp records from that year (92, 98, 92 on 10/1-3/1927). That 98 ties the hottest October reading at MRB with 10/6/1941, the first of 3 consecutive records from that year that still stand; 98, 93, 97 on 10/6-8/1941.

0.29” of rainfall so far today. Most in one event in quite a while.
-
40 in my yard this morning. 42 at MRB, 3 degrees above the record low for the date from 1959.

‘95-‘96 redux
-
Some thunder and lightning with the cell that passed through here last hour. More noteworthy was the heavy rain rates. Ended up with 0.79" in about 30 minutes. Water in the driveway is over ankle deep, indicative of how saturated everything remains after nearly 3" early Monday.

2019 Mid Atlantic Lawn, Garden, Pool, etc. Thread
WVclimo replied to Eskimo Joe's topic in Mid Atlantic
Love this time of year. Today’s haul: -
4.4” in my yard. 7.5” now for March.
-
Reached 35.3 degrees earlier in the morning, but seeing a nice drop in the past hour as the air saturates. Down to 33 now with some flakes falling.
-
34/21 with a light northerly breeze and a steady barometer. Only a bit of snow cover survived the warmth yesterday/ overnight.
-
Just realized that LWX added their 3 westernmost counties to the WSW earlier this evening, after they had been left off in the afternoon package. That makes me feel more confident actually, that they aren't expecting as pronounced a snow shadow as the system crosses the mountains.
-
Pretty unusual to see LWX place Allegany, Mineral and Hampshire Counties in the WWA, particularly when PBZ goes WSW in Garrett County with a higher threshold. Got to believe Frostburg and Cumberland will do as well as Hancock and Hagerstown.
-
Euro still the wettest model for my yard. That doesn’t happen too often. But I like it.
-
Forecast high for MRB today is 47. Currently socked in with fog at 33. Hourly forecast says 40 by noon and 47 at 3:00. Have to go south to SHD to find a 40 degree reading currently. Will be interesting to see how the day goes. Hoping to preserve some kind of snow pack leading into tomorrow morning.

Probably not a bad combo to have on your side inside of 36 hours.
-
12Z RGEM looks like a nice front end for the metro areas.
-
That's a good point, but especially from my yard westward there wasn't much progged for last night. 2" at most on the NAM runs from yesterday.
-
Snow maps are flawed, but the drying trend is obvious when looking at them.
-
12Z NAM mixes as far north in the Valley as OKV. I stay all snow, but <.40" QPF through hr 39.
-
I selfishly agree with PSU’s post above. I was encouraged that 00Z Euro looked to be on the high end for QPF among that model suite. That usually bodes well. Hopefully the 6Z EC didn’t take a step back .
-
Thanks very much sir.
-
Would you be able to share how much QPF is progged ? The wife and I have an early a.m. appointment in Morgantown on Monday, and were considering traveling up there late on Sunday. The storm obviously affects that decision,
-
18Z 12k NAM mixes here and even turns to rain for a while. Haven't seen that on any runs of a global model. 3K is a heavy snowfall for my yard along the lines of the ECMWF.
-
Thanks. weather.us just updated. Shows snow breaking out in my 'hood Sunday afternoon around 1:00 and stays snow until 8:00-9:00 p.m. Hopefully the trend continues and more of us can get in the game.
-
That sounds pretty good for here.
