Was made official this week at AMS that NCAR’s MPAS will be the next dynamical core for the Rapid Refresh and Warn-on-Forecast systems. FV3 will continue for the GFS. The new HAFS (HWRF/HMON replacement) for tropical is performing well.

Snow cover on the GFS on February 7th via Windy. Woof.

The Annual AMS is in Baltimore this year so I’m walking around downtown right now among sad Ravens fans. If I squint at the purple I get bad Vikings flashbacks.

1.51" which brings my total to 12.68" since Dec. 1st. The ground is a bog.

HRRR and 3km NAM are plenty wet tonight. 1.25”-2” over a good chunk of us.

Rodney, I wonder how many times the top two temperatures for a month have happened on the same date. We had that oddity yesterday with 1/26/50 previously being the high for the month.

And my wife flipped the AC on. I hope this is an unbeatable first AC day of the year.

This is insane

76.8 for my high. Amazing

71.0. 73 at DCA.

Morning low of 61.3 on Jan 26th. Sure.

Current snowpack status

Low of 28. Snowpack is looking ragged in the sunny spots. Today will be rough.

The two personal weather stations right near, but across the river from DCA were 22 and 21 for lows. Can I complain about IAD being ridiculously low when my low was 17?

I'm still celebrating national "Packers season is over" day.

Midnight low. Still, full winter out there.

I think this is it

Last 7 days

1/19/24 - 3.5” Seasonal - 8.5”

Added 1” on 0.09” precip beyond 7am yesterday, for a total of 3.5” on 0.30” precip. Good ratios, we were just too far south for the good stuff. Congrats MD and LoCo.

. This was a good event, but Tuesday was better here.
