From north and northwest... Note: @losetoa6 is probably over an inch as of this post but not by much. To the metros... To the south and southeast... ... All is in balance. Just how everything is supposed to be in the year we call twenty-twenty. However, everything equals out over time. North and west will get theirs... perhaps in time for winter. Snow and ice will rule the landscape with an icy scepter in the north and west burbs while 33-degree despair inducing rains will fall across the south and east burbs giving Mr. Reaper all-time record high stonks, turning the tides of the optimism of active weather weenies to the north and west. ... OR, we continue this persistence into the winter and @CAPE will get his beach blizzard along with the south and east gang in January with the one good winter event of the season... Yeah that sounds more accurate... REEEEEEEEE!

What would you guesstimate the heaviest snowfall rates were at your location in inches/hr? ETA: Also, congrats in advance on your rain jackpot over the next 24 hours.

IAD has hit 77F now.

IAD has gotten up to 76F now breaking the record of 75F for today.

Yeah. Just wait until February... and also, prior to that, mid/late December.

Eh. Let it be warm/ slightly humid now. It will get cold enough eventually. Climatology will guarantee that it does EVEN if it remains above average. I'm just soaking it in.

Long November nights and clear skies w/ calm winds = 38F at IAD now after a high of 74F yesterday.

Umm... Dulles just gusted up to 48kts.

The second Sunday in March.

5pm sunsets are suddenly here.

Storm is coming.

Yeah. Not a soul at my house yet as of 8:46pm. I usually get between 20 and 40 treat-or-trickers a year. I'm feeling really dumb buying two bags of candy. (~90 pieces of various chocolate candy total)

IAD just hit 32F.

IAD just hit 32F.

Up to 61F here with light rain still falling.

Neveruary.

Why 33 and rain when you can 32.000000001 and rain!

We need another "No Thunder" severe risk here.

With all that said, though, I'm still watching Zeta, of course. A weaker Zeta may actually move more west and interact more with the incoming trough and help keep the eventual track towards and through our region a bit further northwest.

Yeah. Far eastern areas had fantastic wind events this spring. I also remember the southerly winds during the pre-dawn hours of, I believe, Monday, January 25, 2010. Some of those gusts were legit (nearing 50 mph here). And yeah... peak gust from Isaias here... 29 mph. We'll get a good event at our respective locations again eventually... probably. Will it be within the next year or within the next millennium? That's the question.

I'd love to have at least 35+ knot gusts w/ wind-driven rain from a remnant tropical system at least once in a while here... it doesn't even have to be a Hazel , 1933 hurricane, 1878 Gale or Isabel redux to make me happy... December 19th can't come soon enough! Oh wait- that will be a westerly wind event though.

Me too. I actually saw a meteor from the Orionid around 5:15 am..... Me three. I took a 53 minute walk this morning (5:11am - 6:04am). I saw the stars, Mars and Venus through the fog like you two. But probably looked down the one moment the meteor went by. Mars disappeared low in the western sky into the fog before I got back.
