Sunny, cold and WINDY. Crazy gusts beating against the walls. 43 degrees.

Depression over cold water? Nah...I can get a glass of that in my kitchen with some ice!

that beaten horse has rot...

Y'all could've trimmed this by 100 posts if you'd just listen to Phil and his predictor. He said early spring but NOOOO everyone tracks patterns, agonizes over climate changes and posts historical data and analysis. Tsk tsk.

Pass the salt, please. With a side of pickles and a glass vinegar on ice. Yum!

Drum's been beat so hard the skin is coming off.

What's also cool is if you stand at where old Barney Circle was before crossing the Sousa bridge looking across the Anacostia river the entire horizon is elevation that goes up, from Deanwood NE down 295 South to the Naval Base! The whole area leading right into Maryland. Once called "far SE".

Potato dust. *yawns* Eh, I'm ready to chuck the models and just look out the window at this point. Another cautionary tale of getting too emotional about snow. Enjoy it when it happens and if it doesn't...go find something else to do. Weather patterns don't have joy or sadness. Snow lovers are getting conditional (and desperate) in their demands about type of snow, duration, etc. You get what you get! Chaos rules and we've become tools. Besides, Phil said it all at a press conference. No shadow!

38/24D. Falling.

We need an eyeroll smiley...

42/22D currently.

Because with elevation you need sight lines and flat land flat to compare it to. It would be like living on the upper level of a building with no staircase or windows, there's no reference point.

For all the DC yappin' gone off the rails...just thought I'd post up this ditty. Bears reminding based on where you are. "The highest natural elevation in the District is 409 feet (125 m) above sea level at Fort Reno Park in upper northwest Washington. The lowest point is sea level at the Potomac River. The geographic center of Washington is near the intersection of 4th and L Streets NW." Topographic map below. DC is a combo of appalachian ridge and plains. Like a bowl, edges are high, middle part low. Mt parents and grandparents said the mall was swampy at one time. I saw an old pic of cows grazing on the WH lawn! Crazy stuff. NW is large areas of high elevation. SE is a staircase that keeps going up and most of the streets are hills in all directions. My neighbors can sit on their front porch and see the Cathedral in NW clear as a bell. On Howard road SE you have a clear site line to the monument like its a mile away. Wild. We now return to your regularly scheduled snow channel...
