Another "scorcher" Tue, as for the 6th time this month we had a high in
the 60s. The high of 64º was 2º short of daily record. There was no
reports of daily records in VA Tue.
None the less, all of VA official stations were well into the 60s Tue.

half it was in the upper 60s. Exceptions were Wallops Island (61º,
station is just south of the MD border on the Delmarva coast), and
Wakefield (70º, between Norfolk & Petersburg).
There was adequate sunlight thru early afternoon, the lower clouds moved
in. Radar showed virga here, but a light shower moved east across the
Mason Dixon Line (MD-PA border) about 5pm. We had brief sprinkles about
4:45pm.

Here In Winchester, we have averaged 10 degrees above normal so far in
Feb. Temps represent normals (for here) of the 3rd week March! As a
result, the bulb flowers, such as these daffodils, are several weeks
early.
