What a challenge! MILD TEMPS - EVEN a 70 degrees in locations!
If I were to grade my forecast I would have to give it a D - It was close to a failure everywhere, but a few folks had enough to make it not a total bust - unless you live in Northern VA and MD! Then we have the other side where more snow hit NW NC a bit further south than I thought!
That may be it too folks! Snow looks almost impossible in the long range as a return to milder conditions with above or much above normal temps are forecast!
Here is the NWS long range:

And it continues in the real long term.
http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/predictions/814day/814temp.new.gif
So we have a mild week and it gets really mild! Highs today are in the mid and upper 40s. Tomorrow - upper 40s to low and even mid 50s. Then Mid 50s to mid 60s Wednesday! 60s to mid a possible 70 in the south Thursday and Friday. Then the temps cool to the 40s to mid 50s for the weekend.
FOR REAL - If you live in the Leesburg, Ashburn, or Sterling area it is time to get the grab grass preventer out! Let my friend at Lawn Design help get you started on a very green summer lawn!
Email ld@midatlanticweather.com for details. He has kept his same prices 3 years in a row and is very reasonable!

Sprinkles and a few showers|Thursday rain|#Snow threat increases for weekend
After a delightful warm up on Monday, today we see some showers, maybe a few flakes mountains, today. Then we have another beautiful day tomorrow with highs in the 50s. Thursday will be cloudy with rain. Then Friday we will see slightly cooler temps and sunny skies.
My eyes on the weekend system which is more and more increasing the threat for a Mid Atlantic snow. How far north will it come? I am not certain if it is coming yet, but this will be something to feed the snow starved!
That is the easy look at things!
More to come!

Milder air| A little mix| A close call or snow?
First off, thanks to all the new joins at http://www.facebook.com/midatlanticweather and http://twitter.com/midatlanticwx. Welcome.
The winter of non-sticking cold continues. We will see moderation today to 40s and 50s. Milder tomorrow to upper 40s and 50s. Even so, a little snow and rain shower action could occur tonight into tomorrow morning for north and higher elevations. Some rain showers tomorrow. Mild 50s Wednesday. Slightly cooler Thursday with rain showers a better bet than snow showers based on pattern and temps.
(Remember that Mountains are usually 10 degrees colder)
Next weekend has me wondering about a big Southeastern US storm that could bring snow to Southern and Central Virginia and even North Carolina. It is possible it come further north as well. Forecast models give me some thoughts that this may be the case and we need to watch as they are kind of trending that way. Stay tuned.
Honestly though, if that does not happen, I think the snow storm window will shut as a return to the winter pattern we have seen so far appears to re-emerge and temps in the 60s next week would not be too far fetched!
All for now!
Special thanks to @midatlanticturf for the multiple retweets. And also a special thanks to Hotrods 2 Hybrids (http://www.hotrods2hybrids.com/) for all their work on my cars recently!

Weather for the Week|Cold start|Few winter threats|Maybe a big one next weekend?
I will be doing less blogs, more videos, and a lot of one off posts to Mid Atlantic Weather.
Forecast looks cold today with teens and 20s for many today and some 30s eastern and south regions. Sunny with winds kicking up as the sun comes out and mixes the atmosphere.
The cold night tonight may be the coldest of the season with some snow on the ground and clear temps. Temps will moderate some.
There is a threat of some wintry weather Tuesday but a mix type scenario and maybe elevated areas seeing the mix.
Later this week the situation looks interesting. Thursday and into the weekend a storm may ride up west of us and start as snow and go to rain. That Low could become a cold block mechanism for a true winter storm next weekend.
Beyond that, the pattern looks to return to milder conditions.
So, I am back!
Where you can find me:

Irene makes landfall - Many Threats!
Irene made landfall at about 7:30 AM - She is kicking in a lot of heavy rain and severe weather now for VA, MD, and NC. She has kicked precipitation way west! I suspect Flood Watched on and east of I-95 to become Flood Warnings. Tornado watches all along the coast with many rotating thunderstorms capable of tornadoes, and winds along the coast to cause extensive damage. Expect Flood watches to extend to to about 35 miles west of I-95 if trends continue.
The threat moves up the coast all day!
Stay alert! Be careful! Do NOT try and drive through flooded roadways! Do NOT put yourself in harms way!
All for now!

Quick Update
Storm looks like it will come in a bit west of forecast tracks in NC, and also appears to be getting a bit better organized in the last our or so. Southwest side looks ragged, but it ay be re-organizing. I will keep watching and update sometime this afternoon.
Thoughts still look the same to me. Will try and pinpoint more later tonight.
All for now!

All for now!
Irene temporarily weaker - Do not let it fool you! More later!
The below still looks good. I will try and get more specific later today!
NC - Friday/Saturday - Major Impact - Serious situation for Outer Banks and eastern part of the state. Please heed evacuation requests. A category 2 or 3 hurricane is serious and has not been something that has been experienced in a long while - Outer Banks should not be occupied when she comes through!
VA - Saturday/Sunday - Eastern VA will feel the effects of the storm especially from the coast to about 50 miles inland. Again, heed evacuation requests. Eastern Shore especially vulnerable
Maryland - Saturday/Sunday - Serious impacts along coast to about 50 miles inland. Eastern Shore is the most vulnerable.
Delaware - Saturday/Sunday - All of Delaware to be effected. The coast is obviously the most vulnerable
Pennsylvania - Sunday/Monday - Mainly eastern areas and this will be wind and rain.
NJ - Sunday/Monday - Major impacts, especially along the coast. High winds and heavy rains likely.
As a reminder - it is Aeration and seeding season and my friend runs The Aeration Corps. Check them out - http://www.theaerationcorps.com/

Severe weather today. Irene to be weekend spoiler!
Today will be hot. The storm complex in the Midwest is headed this way
and showers and storms, especially Northern VA, DC, MD, PA, and NJ,
could be here before noon. Storms may also be severe and the Storm
Prediction center has northern VA and up into the Northeast in a
slight risk for severe today.

Hurricane Irene is serious threat, and models have shifted enough to
make me worried. Eastern half of VA, NC, MD,PA, NC - all of NJ and DE
should start to seriously prepare! Power outages and storm damage are
a good possibility! Prepare now and heed all evacuation requests!
More to come!
Do not forget that it is aeration and seeding season! My good friend
at The Aeration Corps can help out! http://theaerationcorps.com
