  1. Yep, this is the most astoundingly boring period of weather I can remember in my 14 years here in the DC area. I don't mind the sunshine at all, but the 75+ temps in early Nov can go. New normal
  2. Broken record with the CPC maps which I will refrain from posting because they always look the same now. But seriously the 8-14 outlook has been wall to wall red for weeks and weeks. Any long-range stuff post D14 suggesting that will change with any indication of reliability?
  3. Yep, got sweaty in a tshirt and jeans on a lunchtime walk. Blergh
  4. Yep. Our bodies adjust to lower temperatures well (that's why those first sunny days in the 60s in spring feel so great). Of course now all we get is 60s, 70s, and apparently 80s from oct-march. I do appreciate the sunshine though.
  5. CPC 8-14 day outlook still has us warm, but also now a bit wetter than avg for the first week of Nov. Pattern change?
  6. Yeah, I'm not complaining. My heat hasn't even kicked on the last few days. Solar gain is great. However, if those maps are red wall to wall come DJF... I'll be sad.
  7. Very dry in Silver Spring. The lawn is still green from the late september wet period + weak October sun, though.
  8. Yesterday on the Patuxent River in Southern Anne Arundel. Muted colors here and there; a few brilliant reds and yellows. Mostly dogwoods and the odd hickory in yellow. Beeches and oaks still almost entirely green as midsummer. Poplars green or yellow/browning from dry conditions at the crowns. I've found in my 14 years in southern Moco/PGC beltway area that best color is usually around Oct 31-Nov 7.
  9. Every year for the last couple years, I've thought: I really need to book a weekend in Lewes or Rehoboth in mid-to late October. Strong odds it will be warm enough to swim, and dry. Next year!
  10. Avoiding a frost thus far inside the beltway, though we dropped to 40ish in Silver Spring. CPC outlooks look warm and dry the next 6-14 days. Glorious end to this month, unlike September? Unless of course you like rain. Not much of that coming.
  11. Heat on for the first time here too. Dropped to 64 in the house.
  12. Some of these model runs are . I hope Tampa metro residents are seriously considering evacuation south or north.
  13. 10/10 outside in the backyard now
  14. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/uh71xu3s6MqwE3zu/ --- Tennessee (north of Asheville). Holy buckets. https://maps.app.goo.gl/4XaW4c4nKfXGwiJ3A
  15. Sorry if this was posted already but the French Broad is already at major flood stage at Fletcher (745AM) https://water.noaa.gov/gauges/flcn7 not as high in Asheville yet, but still flooding https://water.noaa.gov/gauges/AVLN7
  16. Good friend is getting married on Nantucket, Saturday. How screwed are we? Flying up this afternoon from DCA.
  17. Good friend of mine is getting married on cape cod next week. Hope the Euro is right about that stout HP
