  1. You could do it brute force via: https://www.wunderground.com/history/weekly/us/va/arlington/KDCA
  2. Chilly this morning with a 17.8, but I'm finally going to report a T snowcover for CoCoRahs. Excellent stretch, even if it was never that deep.
  3. 37.2. 75% of the yard is green.
  4. Over my 13 years of temperature records, I've now had 20 days hit single digits for lows (none below zero). To nobody's shock, these are highly clustered: 6 each in the winters of 13-14, 14-15 2 each this year, Dec 2022 (Xmas cold), late Jan 2019, early Jan 2018.
  5. Low of 9.1. Needed a deeper snowpack (my yard is 50/50 grass at this point).
  6. Yeah, the differences tonight are going to be exaggerated with the warm air advection aloft but good radiational cooling conditions. I could be +10 from IAD.
  7. Not sure what was surprising about DCA last night. 16 for a low. Andrews was 13. That seems like a reasonable difference.
  8. To this point, none of the three main climo sites have dropped to single digits.
  9. It was mostly the Euro that had a terrible time with surface temps. And then the RGEM closer in. The other models were more more realistic, and then the peak cold was delayed by a few hours which didn’t allow us further east to get as low.
  10. 9.3 and still slowly dropping. Family W of Frederick is at 0.0.
  11. Only missed the record low by 27 degrees at IAD! (-16 in 1984)
  12. Looking at satellite, there was a band of clouds that helped to keep things a touch warmer along 95. The obs on the Gulf Coast are amazing. Heavy snow in Lake Charles and other places.
  13. Temp held steady overnight until just rolling over in the last hour. 10.8
  14. For those that like to look for extremes, we have a little model battle shaping up for Wednesday morning. The Euro/GEM/HRRR are all in the camp of bringing the final lobe of cold air in before sunrise on Wednesday, really getting us cold (about 5 for the metros, below zero for the favored cold spots). However, the NAM, and to a lesser extent the GFS, are slower, not getting that wave of cold in until after sunrise causing it to be about 5 degrees warmer on the lows. There is also likely to be a massive difference in morning lows on Thursday as the cold retreats. Higher elevations will flatline or even rise overnight while the cold pool locations will stay very cold.
  15. On behalf of the remaining no-Lombardi teams, guess I’m rooting for Buffalo.
  16. Both, but of course everything is interrelated. Getting chilly now.
  17. A timing play is always difficult for us 95 and east.
  18. Agree. Good for those who are getting rates, but this is a big nothingburger. Maybe 0.3" so far.
  19. You got it. Flipped to snow and it is starting to whiten. Gotta get under these yellows.
  20. Lightly snowing near the western DC Beltway. Not even close to collecting at 34.8 degrees.
