WEATHER53

Just 10 days away is a bad pattern to be in as it just keeps rolling forward to the next 10 days away segment.

Models do not predict weather for 5+ days, they merely give examples of it

Still getting a few gusts to 25 and 14F

High of 20.5

No temp rise in last 2 hours, still 18.5 but fun outside in full sun, got a reading of 33 in full sun but wind wiped that out Ineffective Sunshine Advisory in effect!

11.5 for overnight low and currently 18.5

Huge cold coming end of Jan. Beyond vodka

Came back from Salisbury and bridge was nerve racking. Definitely some over 50 mph gusts up there. Just gusted right now to 44 here. Wind chill is sustained but when a 40/45 mpg two second gust hits you that “wind chill” is real.

Had a wedding at Seneca Lodge tonight for daughters best friend and I’ve been nervous. Last two storms were easy but this was tough and getting down to 20-30 miles so fine line. Told them freezing rain out there would kill people thus cancel but got a break on it.

We definitely kicked this around about 60 at Norfolk while 40 in DC and there may be some more extreme variables with other locations. could see Pittsburg at 15 and Norfolk at 60 around 2/3pm

What time does front blow thru DC? Thanks

That’s 1pm and that 998 did not lift from the 12noon one so will be interesting to see 2pm one

Another thing that an arctic front does that a typical cold front does not is it squeezes out the moisture more than relying on residual moisture. I think thunder is probable and snow squalls and showers.

-2.5 850 And -1 925. surface plots shows a 998 that surface plot wise did not gain latitude in last hour but rather due east. Hard to assess but extreme cold to northeast is from departed low and extreme cold from nw/w is from arctic high

It’s -4 at 850 and -1 at 925 .
