mappy Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 51, but without the breeze from yesterday so feels so much warmer. God bless having a large deck, put up the baby gate, brought out some toys and bubbles and let the kiddo play outside for a bit. Judging by her squeals she enjoyed it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AvantHiatus Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Somehow I broke my local daily record of 60 degrees set back in 2012, yet the ridge/upper levels is not as substantial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2O Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 It was a nice day for sure. Great for the kids to get out and run around and for me to work on my basketball game against my 5 yr old. I dominated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Finally a few consecutive days this winter during which warmth didn't underperform. Many non big cold days have overperformed around here at the least. It might be a different story up in the snowpack areas. Not much super warm until this stretch but definitely plenty of days that ended up warmer than expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Also, it seems like the cold this week has backed off some, even from a few days ago. It has .. GFS MEX was two days at or below freezing for DC for a while.. now it's like 2-3 with highs u 30s. it could be a bit mild.. but i kinda doubt we'll pull a subfreezing day in the immediate metro unless it snows all day or something. but our avg is 50 starting this week.. so it's tough.

Bob Chill Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 20+ below normal on the highs is awful tough. We pulled it off a few times this year with full sun. Quite a feat but it gets pretty tough without clouds/storm this time of year. Maybe next Monday...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deck Pic Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 This winter has lacked the consistency that marks our truly cold ones....the flow has been way too fast....January 2011 was a warmer January by 1.5 degrees, but had just 1 day above 46 degrees during the 30 day stretch from January 3rd - February 1st...this winter that stretch was colder but we had 13 days above 46.....when it comes down to it we had one impressive 10 day stretch of winter at the end of January and even during that stretch we snuck in a 54....the other cold shot was super impressive but short-lived....The only time we had a real taste of a cold winter was February 4-13 when we got blocking....it was only -5, but we got the feel of a cold winter without disruption...nothing impressive, but solid winter stretch....still 5 days left but will probably fall short of 2008-09, 2009-10, 2010-11 in terms of cold...certainly the latter 2...at the end it will end up being a snowy winter with a couple very impressive cold shots, but otherwise variable.....a ~ -0.8 on 1981-2010 norms is not a cold winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw baltimore wx Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 ^ I feel like the ice in the Bay was more impressive than any of the years that you listed. I agree that for the whole, the winter cold was variable, but from early-January to mid February, it was really cold in spite of a few spikes of warmth, no?
