Late Feb/March Medium/Long Range Discussion
GramaxRefugee replied to WinterWxLuvr's topic in Mid Atlantic
I had it highlight the +1.5, and then highlighted anything same or higher. Winter months only. Satellite era only. At first glance it looks like you might expect, but too many exceptions to be definitive. -
Several rumbles of thunder last evening followed by a shower of 0.01" total. 39f and overcast this morning.

Presidents' Day Storm of 1979 -- Most Memorable Snowstorm Ever
GramaxRefugee replied to RodneyS's topic in Mid Atlantic
A link within that link is an analysis of the storm by Uccellini. (Youngsters; he is the U in KU) Pretty good read with updated graphics. Repeating here for convenience: https://ocean.weather.gov/2-PresidentsDayStormColloquium_Uccellini.pdf -
Presidents' Day Storm of 1979 -- Most Memorable Snowstorm Ever
GramaxRefugee replied to RodneyS's topic in Mid Atlantic
Took an involuntary Jebwalk during the storm when my buddy and I stuck his Jeep, (1960 CJ3B; . Badass). Probably about 8am when it was really hitting us hard. I seem to remember measuring 22" in Howard County, but not certain. -
The Weekend Rule? Saturday 2/17 - The Icon Storm
GramaxRefugee replied to DDweatherman's topic in Mid Atlantic
Melted down to 3/4 inch now. Will report 1" based on my predawn observation. 33f here -
23f with frost (I think about 5 below my LWX forecast)
-
Largest ever recorded by modern scientific instruments. Largest of satellite era. 1000 times the Hiroshima bomb. You are on to something young man.

The Weekend Rule? Saturday 2/17 - The Icon Storm

Just invite a dozen of her preschool friends over to your house. Then she'll be happy and you can have a quiet, relaxing day. Win-win. (sarc tag, eh...) -

Annapolis flipped to snow about 8:30. Nice big flakes. Windy too. -

2023 Mid-Atlantic Garden, Lawn, and Other Green Stuff Thread
GramaxRefugee replied to mattie g's topic in Mid Atlantic
Heh, the photo kinda looks like someone left a Halloween decoration on the woodpile. But, the bat was quite docile. It looks like a mouse at first. Then it spread those wings. I may have to relocate it next week if it doesn't move to a new more sheltered spot. I use my crab tongs for that. (Rabies and all that.) -
2023 Mid-Atlantic Garden, Lawn, and Other Green Stuff Thread
GramaxRefugee replied to mattie g's topic in Mid Atlantic
(moved from obs thread) Uncovered a hibernating bat while loading firewood on Saturday. It was yawning a lot, and I was about done for now, so covered it back up, lest the dog start chasing it. This is about the 3rd time this has happened, but probably the largest bat. -
27f this morning. Been scraping a lot of windshield frost past few days. Woodstove going early. Cracked open a new pile of 3 year red oak on Saturday and uncovered a hibernating bat. (Suppose I should post a pic) eta: OK, I put it in the Gardening thread, (but it still reads 2023): https://www.americanwx.com/bb/topic/58709-2023-mid-atlantic-garden-lawn-and-other-green-stuff-thread/?do=findComment&comment=7195990

The creature is clearly seeking shelter from an impending heavy snowstorm. See if you can trap it or at least get a photo, so we can determine if it's a MECS mouse or a HECS mouse.
-
Same here. Started this morning from 25 too.
-
Total for January 6.65" (8.5" snow) Highest temp 75f , lowest 10f.
-
40f and light rain. Crap weather.
-
Drove on the Riva Rd bridge over the South River about 40 min ago, and the bridge surface had a slight coating as if a snow squall had been through. (sorry no pictures) Low of 27f at home.
-
By my memory, the 1979 Washington Birthday storm was on the 19th, breaking a decade long HECS shortage for us. It was, however, a very cold Feb.

I can't get over the agreement between the 3 models so far out. (Mr. +PNA should be in Heaven if this verifies )

True. Very true. But I was shocked at those 2 holding calls at the end of half 1. Was thinking maybe the game's not as rigged as we think.

Looks like Charlottesville had 81f on that 1932 date. Other than that, Martinsburg would be the king of warmth; (from what I've seen so far)
