Big sad.

Speaking of which, what is everyone in this thread drinking right now?

Got about 1.65" or so in my gauge from last night through this morning.

IAD at 79F.

78F at IAD (78/60)... yeah.

77F now.

76F at IAD breaking the all-time January high.

IAD at 75F casually tying the all-time monthly record.

IAD has boosted up to 73F. lol

With clearing skies and solar noon yet to come it makes you wonder just how high temps manage to get today. ETA: IAD has crept up to 71F breaking the daily record.

IAD has hit 70F tying the daily record.

IAD's min for today so far is 64F. It was 67F there at 5:30am. IAD currently at 65/62.

I haven't quite gotten there yet telekinetically but I could give it a try.

IAD at 66/61.

IAD currently at 57F. Damp.

It's scary how fast time flies these days. Think about how far apart 1st grade and 9th grade felt compared to these last 8 years. Anyway, as many have said countless times already, that was a fun storm and a fun limited production week leading up to it. The skating rink that past Wednesday evening was fun as well.

Just took the trash out to the curb. It's reached that point where 29F w/ a light breeze feels comfortable. IAD got down to 7F this morning.

Picked up to moderate at times between 7-11pm. Some light snow/freezing drizzle continued into the wee hours of the 16th. Freezing drizzle continues as of this morning.) 1/19/2024: 4.1" (Snow started in the 2am hour<-- (sound familiar?) and was moderate to maybe even modestly heavy at times (heaviest rates in the 5am hour (~1"/hr)). Flurries to light snow between 6am and 9am followed by light to occasionally moderate snow between 9am and 11am. Snow slowly tapered down to flurries through the early/mid afternoon before briefly mostly ceasing in the 3pm hour. Moderate snow squalls moved through during the 4pm hour.) 2023-2024 winter total as of Jan 19, 2024: 9.5"

3.7" here in Herndon. I abscond.

CAMs are hinting at some convective snow showers in that timeframe. So steeper LLLRs and a moist low-level environment would help in that regard.

Just measured 2.8" in Herndon, VA.

Currently the temperature at IAD is 47F under mainly cloudy skies (low clouds). Conditions: Damp.

Long range HRRR remains insistent on a snow squall w/ the front tomorrow morning across most of the region w/ other CAMs hinting at snow shwrs/squalls as well. It currently appears the farther north you are the better.
