  1. Spain is awesome - Madrid, Sevilla, Barcelona, the southern coast. Haven't been to northern Spain yet but that's next.
  2. DCA was last below freezing on Dec 20 lol
  3. hence "rarely" not "never"
  4. DCA did officially record a trace.
  5. yeah my parents still talk about that storm (they were in Ohio)
  6. a 970mb massive low tracking in the same location would be in the same ballpark (I think the lowest pressures in '78 were in the mid 950s). Could trend stronger, but it's obviously a ways out.
  7. DCA might record a trace: METAR KDCA 011941Z 34011KT 10SM -SNRA OVC060 05/M01 A3005 RMK AO2 RAE03B39SNB41 P0000 T00501011 $
  8. 51/40 for the last day of 2023 at DCA. Just kinda continues the theme of just... mild. Not blowtorch, but not cold. Hopefully we get some snow here in the next few weeks (starting here in less than 7 days!).
  9. DCA finishes the year with the fewest days at or below freezing (24).
  10. 93 was insane… heavy snow in northern FL, 50+” in the mountains of NC, VA, and WV, blizzard conditions from GA to ME. We got about 20” of wind driven snow and hours of white out conditions
  11. 96 is probably tops for me (around 3 ft in Staunton) but 93… man, we will never see a storm like that again.
  12. I know what will cheer everyone up.... Pictures of snow in places south of us!!!
  13. lol maybe our weather can be described by a uniform distribution
  14. Yet another winter day where DCA fails to hit the freezing point
  15. it does feel like the officiating in the NFL is becoming atrocious.
  16. the DC area got lucky with 2019 and 2022. Still a pretty tough drought for everyone.
  17. lol we don't even get below 30 in the city.
  18. Good win for the ACC. Unfortunately Carolina lost and Louisville isn't looking too great.
  19. Over 6" of rain this month with the 0.67" and counting here in Tenleytown - we've definitely turned the corner in terms of precip lol.
  20. we'd have to get to basically the end of the season to set the record for DCA - seems unlikely but I guess you never know. BWI and IAD have already set the records for consecutive days with no snow > 1".
  21. yeah i mean that's what we'd expect from a slightly cold-biased model output given low position and other factors. i think the question is, on that particular model run (and we've seen this in quite a few others over the past couple of years), why - given the low position, antecedent air mass, etc - was the boundary layer so warm? What is having the model generate that as the highest probability outcome? We've seen a number of such outputs - and actual events - that should have some snow that were rain for virtually everyone. Obviously the concern here is that the base state has warmed significantly and models are starting to output scenarios - even fleeting - that reflect that. You disagree with that premise so you try to undermine any such concern. That's fine - but don't trivialize the concern.
  22. Google gives me 4hr 20 min drive from DC to Snowshoe.
