Agree, I will be definitely concerning to go to beaches, sporting events, concerts etc. when things finally open up. What will be the new norm. We’ll see.
A bunch of the mom and pop restaurants and local bars are closed. Hope it won’t be long so they can reopen before they hit the point of no return. A buddy of mine owns a small tavern and is closed, he is back driving trucks.
Down to 36 and some white rain mixing in.
Just got power back up, it was down for about an hour and a half. A little lull in the winds currently. Winds were sustained around 20 mph had frequent gusts in the 40’s. Highest gust recorded on the Davis so far is 48. 63/57
Their discussion for our area below,
Virginia through central and eastern Pennsylvania and New
Jersey...
Have expanded the SLGT risk farther north into this region. Areas of
rain and thunderstorms will likely be ongoing north of a warm front
from PA and NJ into southern New England. This activity will shift
northeast during the morning allowing modest destabilization to
occur in the pre-frontal warm sector with MLCAPE from 400-800 J/kg.
Storms are expected to redevelop along cold front and in association
with deeper forcing accompanying the northeast-ejecting shortwave
trough. Wind profiles with 50+ kt effective bulk shear along with
large 0-1 km hodographs will promote a threat for organized storms
including supercells capable of damaging wind and a couple of
tornadoes.
Changing back to sleet here. Another coating of ice pellets in the last hour. Temp down to 32. It’s looking like the temps are busting on the low side.
Flipping back and forth between ice pellets and snow currently. Large flakes and pellets. Ground is covered along with the roadway with grapple. 34 degerees
edit, now all moderate snow.
