All Activity

Don't weenie tag me but, boy if we can get a phase between the the polar jet stream and what's sure to be an extremely active subtropical jet stream this winter, it could really get a historic snowstorm.

Haze showing up at DCA. Current DC air quality listed as 62 (moderate).

Looks like the heat shifts to Western CONUS heading into late July with more comfortable temperatures here.

The local mets here were saying that when the front passed by the Ontario fires it caused them to flare up a ton - and modeling hadn't considered that. About 4 minutes in https://youtu.be/K5Y3sW9b4Gs?is=6dEwOaDH-42u7ttl

93 yesterday. hazy sun this morning

I wondered about a potential spin-up, especially after looking at CC. Admittedly I am not a pro, though Families location is the dot above Deering.

Dulles still in the running for warm low for date. BWI just missed.

At least the DC area air quality is not that of Detroit... Detroit registers worst air quality in the world among major cities as wildfire smoke blankets Michigan DETROIT, Mich.

Satellite is messed up this morning, it’s not updating for some reason.

Safe mode'd. Update (7/15/2026 7:18:26 PM): On Wednesday, July 15, 2026 at 20:23Z/GMT, a GOES-19 / GOES-EAST satellite anomaly occurred which sent the satellite into "safe" mode. Recovery is underway, but it may take days or longer for imagery to resume production. Until then, no GOES-EAST imagery of the US or the Atlantic will be available. We apologize for the inconvenience. ---Nexlab Staff

The sun here upon sunrise is a tiny red ball behind a thick milky sky, surreal.

Although the timestamp has updated, the actual geo image has not updated since yesterday. .

62F for the low in the valley in E CT; less humid and no smoke currently; let’s see what the day brings.

We might finally break the all-time warm low record at Dulles. Doesn’t look like they’ve broken below 80.
