87storms

I missed out on the Friday storms in Frederick (was in DC/Harbor), so I'm all in.

Absolutely premium weather today. After going to the Clarksburg Outlets, I decided to wing it over to the Dickerson area of the Potomac. Water did not smell (as expected, since it's further north) and noticed some early budding on trees. A lot of geese, or whatever they were (kinda looked like seagulls, though not sure that's a thing there lol). Also tried the Arch Burger...too messy. Pass. Making up for it with baked salmon (late dinner). Oh, and the US is cracking homers against Mexico. Didn't even realize the WBC was on.

Taking off today was a solid forward thinking decision on my part.

Better than the hour I got yesterday. I’ve accepted the fact that Frederick is one of the cloudiest places in the region due to the geographic microclimate. I’m all in on these temps, though.

You guys had 4 months of cold. It’s my turn now lol

Interesting, it’s been kinda breezy here to start the day.

This weather is a work of art.

Idk, the cloud deck is looking stout. Hoping we get some clearing by mid afternoon at least. Edit: Just realized you were referring to fog, not cad.

I’d like it better if it was 15 degrees warmer lol

At the national harbor for a 2 day work thing. Raining here but haven’t heard thunder. Of course I’d miss Frederick’s first thunder of the year lol

Definitely starting to notice the slow uptick in temps.

Lol I’ve seen others post similar, but I wanted to make sure each direction was covered. I might have to add that my elevation is too low to escape a warm nose haha.

We’re too far north for sun, too far south for clippers, too far east for upslope, and too far west for Miller Bs lol.

All I need is one more moderate event. Not looking too good, though lol

We need batches of precip like this in January. Would be an easy warning level event.

Definitely done with snow and cold for the season. Starting to get jealous of the desert southwest…well, not starting…their weather has been nice just about all season while we get blitzed by the northern stream.

This weather sucks. Hope this isn’t gonna be one of those years where it takes until May to get 3 days in a row of nice weather.

So basically I don’t know what form of precip the next round will be lol.

Still a 1036mb high overhead: https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/sfc/sfcobs/latestsfc.html

The hp is scooting off the coast. I’d be pretty surprised if the next round of precip even starts as snow: https://weather.rap.ucar.edu/surface/displaySfc.php?region=bwi&endDate=20230203&endTime=-1&duration=0

Definitely some iciness on my car already, requiring a scraper in some spots (cleaned it a little while ago).

Is this likely it for the winter? If so, it was a respectable finale since it seems like the majority of the forum was involved.

Easterly flow could keep things moist. Might get slick later for the colder burbs.

I use Merlin as well…and plantnet for discovering weird plants.

Parking lot stickage in progress on the parts less traveled. Just went outside for a bit…very wet snow. Probably about 1/4 - 1/2” so far I’m guessing.
