WEATHER53

Breaks down like this

low moves right over or just east of DC. Snow on front end then DC gets into 35-39* ranged with a drizzly, foggy, light rain mess. Norfolk hits 60. Low moves northeast late Saturday night/early Sunday morning, temps fall 20 degrees in 3 hours, back to all snow and ending near noon Sunday

High pressure showing up and in right place. I think the low will pass right over DC and a 20 degree temp spread in 30 miles will occur. As the much colder air charges in lightning is possible with gusty winds and rapidly falling temps. Going to be dynamic. 

42.6 max in sun temp today

8.5” remaining on full shade snowboard and 5.5 in full sun areas.

Cautioned about the “10 days away” mantra in late December.

we just got big snow and we will get some more even though all the hobbledeegee about SSW and whatever just keeps getting pushed away.

Follow the high pressure set ups for now, that is what is ruling 

Models gotta show all the varieties at this point

Strong, cold high pressures or zero high pressure is the winter trend

keep showing 1035+ and we snow or  suppress. 1010 and they cut.

we had a slew of cutters plus  one suppressed and one worked out beyond perfect.

The thing I have found models The Best at is high pressure placements. Seeing strong highs portrayed in the right places seems to be the trend right now

Euro goes from 55 to 26 between 9am and noon.  That is impressive.

That would be close to a record three hour drop for me, all time is November 1995 from 62 to 30 in 3 hours, 32 defrees

Still waiting for him to explain how a low is going to move northeast out of WV through NC without a transfer.  

Never said it would. You want to join the dipshit chirping crowd also?

This will not cut

Wacky stuff happening. Dead calm and temps fall into teens, 3-5mph breezecand temps bump up 6/7. Check  dca area, camp springs Andrews is one.

Mongolian high pressure air getting here by 28th-30th. This is highs in the teens low of 0 stuff!

Quite cold 24.

33F for a high and 39.6 maximum direct sun reading. Lost 2.5 in the direct sun and compaction so 9” remains and list 0.5 in full shade so 11” remains

31F

11.5 final and might lose 2” today in full sun and zero in shaded/partial

32F

34 straight hours, 11.5”, very light snow, 28F

Bless this little storm that could as we approach 33 hours of continuous snowfall and its still frackin snowin!

11.5”, 28F, light snow

Thanks Don S and how have you been?

Heres a question for anybody

Its calm winds most  of the event and then around 3pm winds gusted over 20 for about 10 minutes, lots of snow blobs came  out of trees, and then it stopped . No change in immediate weather and no such windyness since?

I’m facing the math that it’s likely to snow for another 16 hours at 0.3 to 0.7”ph so I will let you do the math.
