Yeah this is our torch day of low to mid 50’s totaling one in what was projected as a string of 60’s+. So far in torch week I’m at -0.5 average before today . The myopia and false torch declarations is part of why our viewership is 1/10th of what it once was
This will gradually evolve toward more snow. That nw to se alignment is indicative of a high being east of Maine like the other moderate snow maker we had. I’m thinking that high will be more over Maine. The low then is more along TN/KY line and further enough south to not let warm air override us so much
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
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
Since Thanksgiving I discussed 12/5 and then 12/21 showing up analog wise. Also stated no true and lengthy warm up until 12/27 at earliest. For sure we won’t stay in 20’s and 30’s every day but Christmas 60’s that were egregiously model indicated won’t happen although 40’s into 50’s might for 2-4 days
