  1. dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria! (out to 12 on Pivotal)
  2. Will be really interesting to see if the Euro closes off the 500 low on this run. The other globals do and the NAM (lol) looked like it was headed that way.
  3. We had a couple of cold days in 2019. 21 was my lowest daily high, and 6 was the low. The 2020 and 2021 Januarys were straight torches, however.
  4. Hands down the August 11th microburst in the NW DC Beltway. 59mph on my anemometer before we lost power and the best gusts came through. 6+ houses within a few blocks hit by trees and uninhabitable. More damage than the derecho locally. I’ll give a runner up to the Arlington tornado.
  5. Tomorrow's highs look quite cold, the lows are not as impressive.
  6. If it comes down to us, there are going to be some pissed weenies that this pattern delivered zilch.
  7. -1 point differential and 8-9. They are who they are. Zimmer firing probably gets announced tomorrow.
  8. I’ll officially be down to a T on the ground tomorrow morning. 43 and steady rain.
  9. Not ZR, but tomorrow unfortunately looks like a snow eater. NAM is 40 and rain and the HRRR takes DC to the mid-40s prior to the front. Hoping the wedge holds more than that, but I’m not encouraged.
  10. These are some of the best Digital Snow maps in the past decade.
  11. Broke below 20, but what a dud of a temp trace.
  12. 2nd best start to a winter by that metric (through 1/7) since moving to my house in 2009. 09/10 - 22.0" 21/22 - 11.6" 13/14 - 6.5"
  13. Excellent wintry day with the snow blowing around.
  14. That’s strange. They should send out an explanation when something like that happens.
  15. Yup. And usually I’m leery of the ASOS precip totals in snowfall, but that was almost dead on with mine (2.8”/0.20).
  16. Another factor in the model discussion is the ratios. This was a very high ratio storm around here for us. None of the models really do that well, even using Kuchera. DCA/IAD/BWI were all under .25” of precip. The GFS was by far the worst model in this regard.
  17. 2.8” new on 0.20” precip in Falls Church, so good ratios. I’ll push back on some of the model commentary. At least around here, the GFS had way too much precipitation. The HRRR was more realistic except for a few runs last night that went too dry. The NAM and Euro were the best on QPF in the DC area.
  18. Probably virga to start. Only 0.01" precip by 11pm.
  19. NAM 3km looks fine. Everyone N and W of a CHO to Annapolis line looks like 0.25"+ QPF. Pretty intense band at 1-3am.
