Is it still winter? It's 11am and it's 61°outside! This morning when I came to work I actually heard bird's chirping. Last night's low was warmer than our normal highs should be. Our low tonight will probably break our old record for a high min temp...think about that one for minute. The old record was 47 in 1991 and I think we'll stay in the low to mid 50's tonight. Highs may reach the low 70's on Wednesday which will shatter the old record of 65 set back in 1909 - 99 years ago!!
Needless to say, some impressive warmness has overspread the entire Mid Atlantic region. Unfortunately with all the warmth in place, severe weather and flooding is beginning to break out. Cold air associated with a cold front is slamming into warm air ahead of it and *pop* you get severe weather. The Storm Prediction Center has a large portion of Arkansas, far southwestern Tennessee, and northwestern Mississippi in a high risk for severe weather today...possibly some large tornadoes and definitely severe thunderstorms. That cold front will move closer to Delmarva on Wednesday providing us the chance for some showers and thunderstorms, but nothing compared to the storminess potential today. Enjoy the warmth while it lasts!
