  1. Funny I came to say the same thing. Just did a lunch time walk and was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable it was outside.
  2. Funny. I’m doing the same thing. I have my hose at 25 percent and I’m moving it between my bushes and flowers between meetings. .
  3. I said the same thing about COVID. We do a lovely hike in Prince William NP with some rapids and small waterfalls. It’s a perfect “local” hike when I don’t want to head to Shenandoah, West Virginia or the beach. Yesterday there were a few trail runners, but very few hikers. I looked at my wife and I said three years ago and this place would’ve been packed. .
  4. Despite the looming pinwheel heat dome of death’s arrival, it’s actually an extremely nice morning out right now!
  5. It’s always at least 5 degrees warmer in the city due to UHI. I was looking at private station reports Friday and overnight lows averaged 6-8 degrees warmer in DC compared to where I’m at, about 10 miles southwest of DC.
  6. Curious if there’s any energy grid concerns. .
  7. Came to my cabin for the night. This is looking back east about 80-90 miles from DC. Can see the storm clouds. .
  8. Nice spring rumbler but frankly it feels like October 1st outside and it is awesome. .
  9. Outside radar watching and eating some fresh smoked brisket! .
  10. Lower level clouds - guesstimating at about 1000 feet visually - are ripping out of the south west .
  11. Here we go! Region responsible for historic aurora looks like she’s still kicking good and rotating back toward earth-facing. .
  12. There was one frame that had a distinct comma but it quickly disappeared.
  13. That line near Charlottesville/Lynchburg looks like it’s bowing out. .
  14. A couple times in the 12 years I’ve been on DC. Sometime in the last few years actually had a few weeks of highs in the 70s.
  15. Pretty crazy lightning and thunder show the last hour in the Alexandria Fort Belver area .
  16. I didn’t know there was a whole thread! I was positing in DISCOBS. I left Alexandria at 11 pm this night and drove nearly 250 miles round trip. Weather was actually worse in Shenandoah from 1-4 am. It wasn’t until on my way home passing back over the blue ridge that the skies cleared and I saw the aurora over Leesburg.
  17. I walk from DC to DCA metro these days to get some steps in after work before heading to new home in Alexandria. I enjoy the views along the Mount Vernon Trail. .
  18. I remember watching radar. I think the funnel cloud over the capitol is what was tracked near Fort Meade later! .
  19. I remember the clouds swirling over DC this day. Believe a funnel cloud was also reported near the capitol.
  20. Man. Lots of thunder and lightning last night with two rounds of heavy rain. And hail this morning. .
  21. Even if I strike out, I have to try. This is at once or twice in a lifetime thing certainly one generation thing. .
