You weren't kidding, what an inversion last night. IAD at 23 and my low was 35. I'm not sure when I've ever been up on DCA by 7 degrees for a low.
On the MD Mesonet, the warmest site was Frostburg at nearly 2300'.
Ground is barely whitened and the trees don't have much. At least at my elevation (~450') it stuck to the trees. DCA's measurements always seem suspect, but for the most part they are reality.
Everyone is appropriately focused on the precip chances, but the temperature trend is looking like it will be unusual. The core of the cold sweeps in during the day Sunday and we are in deep winter by evening with temps somewhere around 20 and breezy conditions. But then the airmass begins to moderate and we flatline overnight into Monday.
I think we're semi-cooked on this one. It just frankly doesn't snow for very long on any of the models and it isn't like this is a juiced up event. We'll try again in January.
