Better question 'how do you get the control to come true?' lol

Remembers well

High was 59.5 at 11:50 am, been slowly falling since on gusty NW winds. Streak continues, last +60 was 12/10/24. Currently 52.1/30.3 at 4 pm.

So all the 'warmth' upstairs managed to make it down into the valleys and everyone is in the 50-58 range here. Currently 55.8/42.7 and cloudy here.

Crazy wild temp spreads across my area ATM. Currently 38.4/30.3 here at 10:45 pm 1340 ft elevation. 52 up at the airport (3700 ft), 51 at another spot above 3500 ft and 35 at 1600 in a sheltered valley spot and 28 in another sheltered valley spot around 2200 foot.

Well, we did finally clear out around 4 pm and soared up to 57.7 before it started back down, I'll give them a C+

Pass then.

NWS Blacksburg hanging tight to the 62 and mostly sunny, although it is still mostly cloudy to cloudy ATM here.

Not a thing IF it happens.

^^ Same here, 45.3/39.0 at 1:15 pm here, NWS calling for 62?? ^^

I'm liking P36 myself, lol.

47.0 for the high, low is current temp at 28.3/22.0 at 9:30 pm.

DCA: +1.5 NYC: +0.6 BOS: +0.2 ORD: +0.5 ATL: +2.1 IAH: +1.1 DEN: +0.7 PHX: +0.3 SEA: -1.2

Sometimes it JUST ISN'T NWS's day. Forecast for today yesterday was rain and 55, cooler Saturday (51) before warming back into the upper 50's S, M and T. I have warmed a few degrees, currently 43.4/42.2 with rain. There is NO WAY barring a miracle I'm getting into mid 50's today before that front moves thru later this afternoon/evening lol. Oh, I glanced at forecast before I hit send, now 46 for a high, 47 tomorrow and 38 Sunday. Sheesh.

Update- around 1/2 in gauge now, temp has gone down a hair to 38.6/38.0. Little brooks/ditches are full and running fast, and the snow facing north and shaded is retreating. Around a quarter to 3/10ths rainfall per hour rates. Too bad it wasn't about 5 degrees colder.... Update of update, just elevated from Flood watch to Flood warning from NWS Blacksburg.

Had 0.67 in gauge when doing CoCoRaHS report this morning at 7 am. That will get me closer to 3 inches for the month. Already another 1/4 inch or so from what I can tell looking out the window. Currently 38.9/38.2 with fairly heavy rain and fog.

28.2 for a low here.

It wasn't 'home', but the solar eclipse in April (I was in TX) was awesome. Home I'd go with the 3.77 inches of rain that fell in about 6 hours on Aug 9th AND the total lack of snow for the year (5.7 inches).

I've never looked at data for this, but have felt for several years now that weather has 'pushed' about 2 weeks later into the year. Interesting seeing actual data.

That is awesome if true, hoping more are saved. That wasn't pretty.

First +50 temp since 1/1. High was 53.0 degrees. Currently 49.7/19.4 at 5:30 pm. Snow took it on the chin today, between the sun/wind and temp I'm down to around 33% of snow cover. Still about 2 inches in shaded areas and north facing. Had two 46 mph gusts today, one at 11:50 am and other at 2:17 pm.

High made a run for 50 but fell short at 47.8 degrees. Currently 31.8/22.1 at 7:45 pm.
