  1. Tysons Corner had a few very light sprinkles an hour ago.
  2. These unforecast midday showers and cloud cover should make the afternoon storms pretty tame.
  3. Partly sunny till around 7, now it's the same gloomy overcast we had Saturday.
  4. I remember fondly the dry spell of late summer 1995 (zero rain from August 7 through September 8). The lack of soil moisture cut the humidity to a considerable degree, and decimated the mosquito population.
  5. Just had a pretty heavy downpour in Tysons Corner.
  6. Imagine having to live in Juneau, Alaska, where this sort of weather is typical for May and can last all summer (July 2008 had an *average* high of 58, and at least a trace of rain fell every day but one. Monthly high was a torrid 73.)
  7. We can just never seem to get a sunny and dry May, can we??
  8. Freeze warning won't verify. Clouds, wind, wind, wind and more wind.
  9. I hope this doesn't hang around all day. The NWS forecast implied there would be maybe an hour or two of fog that would burn off, so I left my windows open at home.
  10. NY City - that's one heck of a heat island!!
  11. The worst April I remember was 1983. At least a trace of rain on 18 of the first 25 days, and there was, I think, *one* sunny day. The high for the first 21 days of the month was only 64, then it got all the way up to 68. After another spell in the low fifties, the pattern finally broke on the 26th, and temps soared to 88 on the 28th.
  12. Well, we usually get extended stretches of nice weather in the fall, except when tropical storms affect the area. October is almost always our sunniest month.
  13. We can just never seem to get a real spell of settled, sunny weather in April or May!! Frustrating as all hell.
  14. Another mild day ruined by screaming winds. Goody.
  15. It was supposed to be near 60 today, but since 10 a.m. the temperature actually dropped into the forties!
  16. Still only in the sixties and I've seen only glimpses of sun since about 9:30. I thought it was supposed to clear out and really heat up before the front got through. We'll never see upper 70s at this rate.
  17. snowfall rate much lighter in Vienna. Temporary lull or has the storm shot its wad?
  18. It was supposed to be 60 and sunny today, not upper forties with gloomy overcast! Even S wind feels chilly. Models were garbage today.
  19. Is this going to be the windiest February on record in the DC area? Because I am getting really tired of every mild day having screaming S/SW winds, and every cold day having biting NW winds. Can't we ever get sunny, calm days anymore??
  20. Streets, sidewalks, even tabletops still just wet in Merrifield, VA . Dirt has a dusting.
  21. For some reason, the comments are closed for this morning's Capital Weather Gang forecast post. Comments on the PM update looked like they meant to go on a story about football, so maybe the software is screwy. But the other posts, about national weather, still have their comments, which are 99% the same political flamewars they've been getting for years.
