Brighter skies on Saturday with wind chills in the 20s much of the day
The wettest spots received around a half-inch of rain from our recent cold front. Many of us were closer to the quarter-inch or third of an inch category, while drier spots — farther from the Beltway — were probably hoping for a bit more rain than a 10th of an inch.
Overall, precipitation underperformed a bit, and we’ll keep that in mind when examining precipitation totals for the next storm. There was not a single weather model that stood out as the prediction winner in the rainfall accumulation category. Blending the information available from multiple models, though, is part of a human weather forecaster’s fun.
Looking ahead at wind projections through Saturday afternoon, it may not be quite as gusty as we’ve seen in the past 24 hours. Perhaps we’ll see peak wind gusts tomorrow about 5 mph below today’s? It’s a start, if you’re not a fan of wind!
