🏆China recorded its lowest temperature ever recorded on Sunday: -63.4F (-53C) It was observed in Mohe, the country's northernmost city. A very rare case of a new all-time national low temperature record. Just this past summer, China saw its worst heat wave on record. 1/3

Things can change, but no measurable snow in model projections for the next 7-10 days in DC area. It's been that kind of winter -- but February and March typically bring some snow...

@capitalweather is there just going to be no appreciable chance of even a coating this year? You don't even mention the possibility of snow in the forecasts and I haven't seen the snow index all year that I can remember.

That crazy UFO-like cloud formation last week in Bursa, Turkey, has a scientific explanation, thanks to 's washingtonpost.com/weather/2023/0

Residents in the Turkish city of Bursa were stunned by this strange cloud formation in the sky Thursday morning. The country's Meteorological Directorate said it was a lens cloud formed by strong wind fluctuations over hills and mountains ⤵️

Gusty winds around the DMV this morning with peak gusts in the 30-45 mph range (see map)... We could continue to see these gusts into the afternoon. Temps in the upper 40s will not rise through midday---and will fall by late afternoon. Blustery day!
