Upton going 3-5" yet temps remaining in the mid 30s

Please, will you post Upton. Have a hardworking daughter in NYC and curious about specifics. Thank you.

Hello all. Will someone clarify the next two to three days on wind? Tyvm.

You are in my area. However I have no current thermometer or Dew Point reader! Hahal You'd think I would. Therefore I've always appreciated your current input! So thank you!

Looks like 18z GFS setting up to dump the motherload like the EURO at 162 hours. Huge PNA ridge and the PV is about to be brought Southward

I love Winter Weather! Understanding models and even many posts is hard for me. 162 hours is 6.5 days however, and I'm suppose to be driving from DC proper to NYC Manhattan and staying the weekend. I don't travel in bad weather! I will watch as I always do, but any early advice here, american wx peeps? You think I should cancel? Thank you in advance.

Wonderfully huge flakes of snow here in Alexandria City! Prettiest day so far of the year.

Hey Guys! 

 

Ive lurked here for about five years now but never made an account, decided to do so though! Im in Alexandria, north of Old Town and it is not doing much of anything here. 

Welcome! Glad you signed up. 

Currently no flakes. Patience is a virtue.

It just doesn’t snow where I am

I'm in Alexandria City. A couple of hours ago I saw a flake or two but nothing since. Weird.

Thank you for this beautiful rendition!

Pardon me all. I've reviewed many posts since yesterday. Are we here in Washington DC area suppose to get way below normal temps for Thanksgiving and Friday for sure? I have family coming in. Tyvm.

Hello americanwx experts! Will someone please post a model addressing the temperatures/weather over the next 5 to 7 days? What is it going to be like? That's why we come here to americanwx in part. Not just for storms, but for warnings and weather! Tyvm.

Wonderful gardens psuhoffman! Thanks so much for details on keeping animals out, as well as photos and congratulations to you and your wife on you new family member.

Oh I know. I have a pretty large garden. Tomatoes, carrots, corn, peppers, raspberries, blueberries, watermelons, zucchini, green beans, snap peas, and 3 kinds of pumpkins. It's a pain when I have to water it all. But it's normal. There is a dry stretch almost every summer. Also sucks for my 2 acre lawn but there is nothing I can do about it. No way I am wasting that much water and overusing my well pump. Just have to hope it recovers when the rain comes again. 

Give us a tip how you keep the wild life from eating/destroying your wonderful veggie/fruit garden. Here in Alexandria VA we can't seem to grow anything as it all gets eaten while growing ( a bite here and there). We have the usual suspects: fox, deer, squirrels, chipmunks, birds. Is your garden enclosed and gated or what? 

Yes, no sense to waste water on an event that happens every summer. I gave up long ago except to keep trees and flowers alive.

The last MOD we had was June 2013 that busted horribly.  It was eventually shifted well south into North Carolina.

Rarely post, but do wonder if high temps might not come to fruition in NE, including Mid Atlantic. Any insight americanwx.com? What are mitigating factors?

I don't post much. Incredible thunderstorm here in Alexandria City. Amazed we still have our electricity which always goes out in these circumstances. Not much heads up, unless I missed it. Well wishes to all.

Occurred again just now  when logged out (loud beeps/at risk for crash/call on Apple computer). So, I x'd out and logged in.

So sorry this caught you on your vacation. Wishing you resolution and a great 2018! -WLD
