  1. I only got like 0.4” of rain here, but it’s snowing now so… okay. 10:30am edit: Had a massive graupel/sleet/snow burst that topped the cars and got some grass accumulation.
  2. Wonder if I get in on some of that WV line later…
  3. 3k NAM is a terrible walk to class… I’m a terrible meteorologist in the making. No raincoat or umbrella.
  4. Congratulations kmlwx, good call on RIC... unfortunately. Here in the mountains wasn’t a lot better.
  5. 31° and flurries. Maybe last flakes if none on Friday here?
  6. Ah okay. That’s a question for next fall semester me…
  7. Does the hypsometric equation kind of relate to the question you’re asking?
  8. Looks like TT has the EC-AIFS, that will be fun to see when we get a run of it.
  9. @RodneyS So... I downloaded some ERA5 Reanalysis data, 80 years worth from 1945-2024, found the average temperatures and then found the change in average temperature between the 2 40 year periods. I then plotted it and these are the results for both days. There's definitely something happening around our part of the country and north on the 13th... what exactly, I don't know. https://imgur.com/a/yuUYC5l
  10. Thunderstorm at 10am in February. Really awesome stuff. Second day in a row.
  11. Got 2 lightning flashes yesterday while taking weather class tests… let’s see if we get anymore today or tomorrow. Maple trees have red nibs on the end, and flowers are coming up. It’s spring.
  12. I've been using this NSF Unidata CAVE (Common AWIPS Visualization Environment) software this week and it's super cool. Still working my way around it. I guess it was presented at AMS this year... https://unidata.github.io/awips2/install/install-cave/
  13. Some of the trees around here have new growth on the ends of the branches. Some trees have buds of some type. Not sure if that’s normal for around here on February 3rd, but okay.
  14. DCA _ NYC _ BOS __ ORD _ ATL _ IAH __ DEN _ PHX _ SEA -1.0 _ -1.5 _ -0.8 __ 0.5 _ -1.2 _ -0.1 __ 0.1 _ -0.2 _ 0.3
  15. Some fat snowflakes are falling while I try to program this climate homework. Cars covered but may as well be wet rain as far as the ground is concerned.
  16. the bands of snow yesterday only managed to put down 0.2" despite the long duration, some impressive bands, and cold temps.
  17. Got to 7° at VT Apt, but probably colder where I am… terrible walk to class.
  18. Roads have now caved with the heavier rates. Didn’t take long.
  19. I went for an hours long walk in the snow, it was great. Roads still winning from what I can tell.
  20. Roads still wet only, we had a snow hole for a bit here, but it resumed.
  21. The snow is light and pavement has melted so it’s not snow covered anymore. Hoping we get similar bands to the stuff south of Roanoke…
  22. Snow started at some point and now it’s falling at decent rate. Asphalt lightly covered patchily.
  23. Really nice to wake up to at 12z. The closer we get, the more I trust the GFS.
