  1. DCA has as many +10 days (6) this month as negative departures. Seems like we are on track for a top 10 warmest Dec. 2nd is in play.
  2. Scored 70.0. IAD will be three or fewer off the record.
  3. UHI always helps, but I’m not sure that the map is really highlighting that, given a lot of more rural areas that match the dense areas. Some of it is patterns, some is probably just the starting and ending dates.
  4. @mattie g is completely right about the time of the year. As far as vegetation and snow weenies go, Nov/Dec is the best time for it to be dry. Interestingly, both IAD and BWI have now slipped below normal on precip for the year, IAD significantly so (close to -8”). DCA is still above due to the summer convection favoring areas near the beltway and east. On a multi-year basis we are still just fine, but something to keep an eye on.
  5. As I said, I hope you all skipped that abomination of “football” last night.
  6. We are 4 months removed from the August microburst that put a bunch of trees into houses in my neighborhood. Of the three closest to me that were severely hit, none of the houses are occupied and only one has had any restoration work done. I wonder if it is just a general, slow insurance process or if the labor and materials shortages in construction are hampering the work.
  7. 26 at home and 28 at DCA are the coldest on the season.
  8. Euro's got 60s on Christmas. Record is 72 at DCA. Let's burn it down.
  9. That's exactly it. If teams had an uncontrolled outbreak due to non-vaccination, they would have to forfeit. However, this is mostly among the vaccinated so they are adjusting on the fly.
  10. WFT and Philly, and Seahawks and Rams on Tuesday
  11. Good, hopefully that means fewer people watching Vikings @ Bears
  12. Always entertaining to bump this thread https://twitter.com/islivingston/status/1471900949073510401?s=20 https://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/CurrentMap/StateDroughtMonitor.aspx?VA
  13. DCA officially sets the record high at 65.
  14. Friday is the lowest record high of any day at DCA (64). It is 62/63 right now.
  15. Lincoln, NE ASOS gust to 93mph. That system is amazing.
  16. I wonder how many times SPC has issued a Moderate for locations that have snow on the ground.
  17. There are locations in MN that have snow on the ground and are under a moderate risk per SPC. That is wild.
  18. Yup, and the funny thing is that I’m usually the one pointing that out to others. And it was all for naught anyway, since we did grab the 70 after the afternoon climo report.
  19. If anyone wondered whether there was a correlation between a dry Nov/Dec (<3" precip) and the winter snowfall...there is not. DCA's average is 15" and median is 11.6" in those cases, which is pretty close to the average.
  20. Record stays at 69. Remains 9 calendar days with records <70.
  21. Record high at DCA. At least 70 (maybe, saw from Ian’s Twitter that it was a 5 minute ob). Only 8 calendar days at DCA now have high temp records in the 60s.
