Almost 2:30 pm and I've 'warmed' to 22.9/8.0. In and out of clouds and occasional flurries with NW 20-30 mph winds. Feels quite wintery.

My temp didn’t go above 31 this afternoon and at 4:30 already down to 27.5

Man it’s chilly. 21 with windchill in the lower teens to single digits at times.

26F - probably due to elevation (and unblocked western exposure), I'm often just a tick colder than you when the UHI effect is more muted (like right now).

Models don’t help me much about snow but they do seem to get extreme winter temp onsets correctly.  Those temp projections are 1982 1994 like with DC area highs around 10 and low -5.  I’m unsure we can do that kind of cold around here anymore but maybe we get a chance to see

You mean you don’t like it when it’s below freezing, windy, and cloudy with no snow?

Temp never got above 11 during daylight (midnight it was 25) and snow fell throughout the day. Total was nearly 6". Nice event and currently just 8 outside with wind continuing.
