WEATHER53

My shaded ground is frozen solid and full sun is hazardous as too 1/4” is melted clay much but still frozen right underneath. Fast drop down to 35 now

Cold down here in the holler at head of the crick with high of 49 and low of 21. Not a big departure but another consecutive negative 2” remaining snow over at Frederuck house doing its job, 42 max so far there

And it begins . More fun as analog agrees. We got good benefit out of this last one. That night in teens and sustained 20 gusting 35 just after dark was real wind chill. Wakes one up

If you are stating that is the average of any record setting daily highs then that is probably correct. However the mean or average max daily high is no where near that

Thats not what he said and I don’t think and have never seen any calculation of what is the average of the highest temps for the second half of the month

This torch clamour is silly

That’s incorrect DCA normal high temp for 2nd half of December is no where near 64 , more like 49

I’ve cleared so after being steady at 25.5 for hours I’m down to 24

-22 on the daily high is rare air around here and they likely mean since a starting point of 1950

What year did it tie ? Thanks

DCA stayed below 20 for 15 consecutive hours. It does that infrequently and not even annually

Looks like my high was 26.7 and Frederick house 22.5

In the last 30 years at DCA there have been 12 below average Dec. In last 30 there have been four at -5 or colder:1995, 2000, 2005 2010. Notice how in blocks of five and perhaps again this year

After today DCA will be -10 for December with 16 consecutive below average days including Nov.
