MN Transplant

PictureThis is excellent, I just wish it were a purchase-once app rather than a subscription.

Can’t really distinguish them from normal traffic on the cams, but they sure are honking a lot.

78. Looks like a lock for a record high at DCA tomorrow.

These mornings are amazing. For @H2O’s reference, the 44 is a few houses down from the water tower, which is the neighborhood max elevation.

Low of 41.7 on Mt. Tysons.

My vote is for August, but I understand the sentiment.

51, 49, 49 at DCA, BWI, and IAD. Even 50 at home. Spring will not be denied.

First daffodil today. Some irises have been up since Saturday. Nice to see.

Yeah, that is clearly an error. Nice find.

Haven't been down to the Jefferson since it was cleaned. Nice!

In a truly shocking development, temps are overperforming with a frontal passage. High of 57.4.

Another reminder of how sensitive these borderline icing events are to solar radiation, even on cloudy days. Having a night event is such a huge plus.

Good stuff, Rodney.

My main note on 3/21/18 was that I lost to all three airports (3.7”). 3/6 was very warm ~35 for the snowfall here so I’m not surprised it didn’t collect in DC. 0.9”

Proof!

This might be where my extra couple hundred feet helps me out. Decent coating of ice on trees and other elevated surfaces. Lowest temp was 32.4 on my station.

This is a nothingburger as far as precip goes, but 33 midday after a 76 the prior day is pretty impressive.

0.08” rain, 34.4

IAD sounding has a thin, but stout, cold layer from 900-950. Will be interesting to see if it is enough to refreeze (sleet).

Nice 40 degree spread across MD right now.

74 here. DCA got the off river bump and flew to 75. Both DCA and IAD within 3 degrees of their record highs.

I would say that it is going to rain, but now it appears that it’ll barely do that in the DC area.

High on the day 64.6.
