We also agree that improvement in both systems as i mentioned a minute ago we did have a little bit asleep a couple spots this afternoon evan saw some pitocin. I should also add that it was forty eight degrees when that was happening he said i dont remember ever seeing its lead at forty eight member week or so ago was doing it while doing it super bowl day around forty two or forty three in some spots are one time in early december about fifteen years ago scott regina and i were playing golf and it did it at fifty degrees so amazing as you can see theres obviously a range showing up on radar but its so cold aloft that every once in awhile one or two these areas that make it down the ground is a few sleet pellets mixing and later tonight more the same even the littlest snowflake activity trying to make sense on the far northern spots eventually right now were at forty six degrees. Pressure is Holding Steady in the dew point fairly low at twenty sunshine and some clouds and every once in awhile again a very isolated shower across the region he said a man sunshine for awhile and then the clouds now really starting to thicken up at least on that one picture but again it depends on where youre located hunters out there forty seven in newport news forty six inch sp same reading in norfolk but fifty one right now in Virginia Beach forty fives and hand them back to wakefield so readings way above freezing but again because it is so cold aloft as the south couple thousand feet up thats why this is falling freezing in that thin little layer layer of cold air and then doesnt have time to completely melt as it falls the last thousand or two thousand feet through these forty so again a little bit of very light precipitation just spotty areas this evening little bit of sleet mixed in at times and by late tonight maybe a little bit of snow mixed in especially some of the more Northern Areas at a slight risk of a shower on the Eastern Shore with that north westerly westerly when everybody else itll just be partly sunny and temperatures will be way below normal and a tiny bit below what we saw today and then as we get into thursday were going to look for readings to drop a little bit more eye captures only in the mid thirties believe it or not and it gets colder than that still the coldest sustained outbreak of the winter set to move in here over the next week as you can see all lot of snowfall but light out the nations heartland. So the forecast for the masa is a high of forty three degrees the mall for today we said forty five actually was forty eight so were now up to fourteen straight forecasts yet closing our record twenty one but will try to keep going another we can do that breezy and chilly tonight a stray shower with a possible mix especially to the north say a shout as i said and was up close and close in primary today talking to the second graders is a shot from clint and all the enthusiastic children want to get on tv and they always come off the goddess of the dancers they well and they obviously did that so tomorrow the seven day forecast calls for forty four but only thirty five on friday thirty seven thirty six and look at valentines day twenty nine and then a storm approaches monday tuesday of next week and could be an interesting one will track that of the next few days i cuddle up with your loved one well up next meet an outstanding teenager.
