  1. DCA 73 vs the record of 64. I think Ian on twitter noted the other day that 64 was tied for the lowest individual daily high temp on record at DCA. Now Dec 17th stands alone.
  2. IAD's 4.4" was in 1980-81. They messed up the dates on the LWX site. 5.9" in 97/98 is correct.
  3. Really impressive/depressing. Thanks for crunching the numbers.
  4. IAD got it. DCA missed on a weird day where the high was before noon.
  5. IAD with the hottest August on record by a decent margin. 3rd hottest summer behind 2010 and 2011.
  6. RECORD EVENT REPORT NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BALTIMORE MD/WASHINGTON DC 0122 AM EDT TUE AUG 16 2016 ...RECORD DAILY MAXIMUM RAINFALL SET AT WASHINGTON NATIONAL DC... A RECORD RAINFALL OF 1.16 INCHES WAS SET AT WASHINGTON NATIONAL DC YESTERDAY. THIS BREAKS THE OLD RECORD OF 1.15 SET IN 1941.
  7. No. Mar 2012 was a historic monster. Mar 2010, maybe.
  8. I think the totals in DC itself lean towards 2010. The reservoir was higher as was the spotter in Anacostia. No reports from near AU, but they were 25" and 27" in 2010, and I really doubt they were that high this time.
  9. I lean '10 over '16. The totals were basically equivalent, but the heavy snow and impact of 2010 outweigh the 2016 duration and wind for me.
  10. Nice. Wonder where we are on standard deviation. Dec is a monthly with a higher variation, but it is possible that this is still the most anomalous + month in DC history.
  11. 64 at DCA currently. Looking good to break the all time December min record tomorrow.
  12. Super quick look at the records finds 75/60 on Jan 13, 1932 (+32 vs current norms, would be higher against the old numbers).
  13. I think I have Jan 1950 as the most anomalously positive month on record at DCA. +12.0 from the current norms. This could be a solid #2.
  14. Probably about the same way we handle the fact that some of the old observations were taken multiple stories up in a building in a completely different part of town. Ignore it.
  15. Doesn't go out past 7pm, but this is a straight up obliteration from the NAM.
  16. The highest minimum for any day in Dec at DCA is 59° on 12/5/1973. That record is in big trouble.
  17. That would qualify as an obliteration. I wonder what the biggest gap between 1 and 2 is for any of the months.
  18. 80 would be a heck of a mark at any of the sites. Only a handful of 80s beyond the first few days of the month on record.
  19. I don't know about NE, but Jan. 82 was about the peak of what winter can do in Minneapolis, with two 17"+ snowstorms in three days and a max snow depth of 38".
  20. We had a nasty ice storm in MN back in the mid-90s. Was supposed to be 12-18" of snow and the storm wrapped up too much and drove the warm air north. It was fun for a while, until we got a wet basement from the combo of ice clogged gutters and frozen ground. You don't want that at any time of year, let alone January.
  21. I am at 7.25", but half of that is from the last week. IAD to my area to Manassas did not do well, as compared to other spots, in the first half of June.
