However, I have seen major snow storms with temps near 70 the day or so before (just can't remember specifics)... We have this debate EVERY TIME there is a projected snow after a cold front and its exhausting. I've been out west and seen snow accumulate after an 80 degree day multiple times! It doesn't happen here as often for several reasons but that doesn't mean it can't. Unlikely and impossible are two very different things. And just because something has not happened does not mean it can not happen. One thing that has to be factored in, is it does not get to 80 that often during the winter, so the opportunity for this to happen would be limited so the fact it has not happened might just be limited sample size not a function of it being impossible. As we see more extreme temperature swings happening this kind of thing might become more common. It matters what the temperature is WHEN it's snowing...not the day before! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midatlanticweather Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Basically, had a heavy shower that made things go to all sleet and even some slush balls, but as soon as it got lighter it went back to rain with some sleet and now just light rain with an occasional pinger. So, type of precip seems rate dependent which makes sense. Close to 38..was a bit cooler in the heavy precipitation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't normally snow in DC or Virginia in mid-March, much less following 80-degree days. The sun angle is just too strong. You need something really special, like the Storm of the Century in 1993, for it to snow at this time of year. We don't have that right now. 1) IAD has had accumulating snowfall after March 10th 38 times in the last 63 years. 60% of the time. 2) Change your screen name, if you're going to be this big of a douche shit poster at least don't associate it with Eagles fans, we have enough bad press (often deserved) without you piling on! 3)STFU 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
