Low max record at DCA on Christmas Eve is 23 (1989). Could be in play.

Missing the first low but a secondary low develops in a good spot edit - nice 3-6”

Since an OP run of the GFS at 8 days is banter, I’ll point out here that the temp at onset is in the mid-20s and falls to the mid-teens by the end.

Just topped an inch of rain.

Could not see or feel any ice when I went out to empty the rain gauge. 32.2, 0.47” in Falls Church.

So, you are going with the "never" scenario. Bold.

Euro 49 at 1am to 17 at 1pm on the 23rd. Now that would be fun to see.

Strictly from a White Christmas standpoint, there is a little vort that slides just to our south on the 24th. Something like that on the heels of the Arctic front could do it.

Matching 500

12 Euro is not too bullish. Still a mess far N and W though.

This is really good. You are going to have to post it multiple times this winter. I never really considered the wind, but it does physically make sense given latent heating.

Sleet and 40.8.

I'm rooting for George.

In safari all you have to do is tap on the icon. In this case I tapped on the weenie and it brought this up. (and now that I notice it, it is kind of like an in-browser pop-up. Maybe you have it disabled?)

Well, back in for now.

Gotta sub Pulisic out

There we go. What a pass on the header.

BWI: 10.2" DCA: 9.5" IAD: 13.1" RIC: 8.3" Tiebreaker (SBY): 5.3"

Sitting at a trace today. Not exactly a washout.

The contract that JJ is going to get will be something. A few days ago it looked like today was going to be a dreary one, but we have blue sky breaking out. Not bad at all.

Somehow the raw numbers are even more impressive. That is nearly 20 degrees over a depth that wouldn't even get you 2/3rds of the way up the Washington Monument. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- PRES HGHT TEMP DWPT RELH MIXR DRCT SKNT THTA THTE THTV hPa m C C % g/kg deg knot K K K ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1014.0 93 -3.1 -6.1 80 2.40 240 3 269.0 275.6 269.4 1013.0 100 -0.5 -7.5 59 2.16 244 3 271.6 277.7 272.0 1011.0 115 2.0 -8.0 48 2.08 252 4 274.3 280.2 274.6 1008.0 138 4.2 -9.8 35 1.81 263 5 276.7 282.0 277.0 1005.0 161 9.0 -11.0 23 1.65 275 6 281.8 286.7 282.0 1004.0 169 9.8 -11.2 22 1.63 279 7 282.6 287.5 282.9 1000.0 200 10.6 -11.4 20 1.61 295 8 283.8 288.6 284.0

And this is why my low was 39 and IAD's was 24. Holy inversion.

Woo! Thanks for running the contest.

Is this where we point out that there were six +12 or higher departure days earlier in November.
