31.3 for the low!! We did it in Western Loudoun. Based on Dulles readings, Eastern Loudoun too. I guess that will end the growing season.

Gfs is a southern slider end of next week. Wow. I mean the trend was there on the models but long range forecasting is a challenge. We will see if the Euro folds

32.7 for the low. Close!

34.9 degrees on my frosty morning walk! Brilliantly nice!

Was great day to mow the grass for the last time this season! Will be swapping the garage for the Christmas decorations by the front door and the lawnmower packed in the back! 77 for a high today was quite warm! Probably do it again tomorrow!

Not much - but something

36.3 for the low. Frosty in the shaded spots

Maybe some more freezes?

Euro is much more interesting Sunday/Monday for rain and some windy showers. Pretty consistent about a bit more than just a quick passing front with some showers. Hope it is correct.

About time for the Animal House quoting

I am like 5 miles from the red bullseye in Loudoun! LOL! What an odd model depiction.. I suspect there should be a lot more smoothing than that

38 this morning in Purcellville, and when I went out, shaded spots had some patchy frost. So good call on the advisory, it was all about location, shady spots, and good clear conditions.

Gfs ticks east with heavier rain shield. I think it is under doing the western extent of rain but that is based on nor'easter thoughts from winter. Still a close line between the heavier rain and those that get less. Rain is now certain for most or all the area

Long range snow totals for GFS and Euro showing a lot of Canada getting snow the next 2 weeks. Gfs is way more excited about it

2.55 inches for total event here in Purcellville.

WOW! What luck.. 2.34 inches of rain over the last 24 hours! Very unexpected amounts here in my backyard!

44.1 degree low! That is chilly!

Oh ya! Browning for sure, I am also not cutting 3 inch+ amounts off the lawn every week either. Not good for grass planting season, which is here in about a week! Need some moisture for sure. Hoping tomorrow surprises, but when dryness is the trend, Loudoun has not done well in the past. I also do not like the trajectory of moisture tomorrow as it seems to get a slight rain shadow from the mountains when moving west to east. Still got down to 49 last night which is wild due to such big temperature swings.

48.2 glorious degrees this morning! Was a chilly and delightful walk!
