The TV mets and NWS were screaming about how hot it would be today. Near 90.
At 11:30 it is 72.
Maybe we will have a sharp temp. rise from 1600 to 1800Z ???
87/88 at DCA.

The 6am supercell over my house on the 12z 3k would be fun.

Twins breaking their winless playoff streak last year now the Timberwolves sweep...perhaps the Minnesota turd is turning
The Wolves are the state's best chance at a big 4 sports title since the '09 Vikes. They looked great against Phoenix.
I don't expect much from the Vikes this upcoming year with Sam Darnold starting, but at least we finally have a young QB to get excited about.

had about a 15-20 min stretch of 32C (89.6F) on the 5 min obs (plus a bunch more times hitting it for 2 or 3 obs in a row), it usually sneaks in there when that happens.
Missed it. 89
Record highs at IAD and BWI

DCA is just rock solid on that S wind. Will be interesting to see if a 90 squeaked through at some point.

Warm. A tad bit humid too. Of course, we’ll be begging for 60 degree dews in a month or two.

McCarthy from Michigan it is for you guys
And Dallas Turner (edge), who was the #1 defender on many boards. Not much draft capital left this year and next, but a good foundation for future years.

The NFL draft can't start soon enough. The Vikings fandom is going insane with the QB question.

DCA messed up again , running mostly +10 versus surrounding stations
The 5-minute obs haven't been coming in since 2am. But you are right, the 62 high is 5 degrees warmer than any of the local stations. I've only been to 54 today.
-
Month to date after the warm spell. Not going to erase these, so it'll be another + month.
DCA +3.7
BWI +4.0
IAD +5.4

They changed the Shen Valley zone this year. I ignored it. Because I know my yard. April to early May frosts are normal. Bigger question for me is WHAT or WHO made them change it?
But that link has nothing to do with growing season. It is about what can survive based off of the coldest temperatures of the winter. You know, don’t plant a mango tree in Vermont. I haven’t seen anything from USDA that tells you when to put tomatoes out. Now, some seed companies may use the zones as proxies to give you a general timeline, but they also usually caveat that with plant specific guidelines.

What calendars did they put out? I only know the hardiness zones which is about wintering over.

@MN Transplant guess this was just north of you?
Emergency management and NWS employees report half dollar size hail in Falls Church per LSR
Quarter plus. I’m scouting the field for bigger.
