  1. Not much on the rain front, but had a 38 mph gust just now in an ongoing thundershower.
  2. DCA: +1.8 NYC: +1.9 BOS: +1.7 ORD: +2.1 ATL: +1.4 IAH: +1.1 DEN: +1.5 PHX: +0.5 SEA: +0.4
  3. Caps on to 2nd round.
  4. LOL, looking at visible sat just now, the weather today is brought to you by the letter 'G', floating across southern Virginia.
  5. Had a shower (no thunder) shortly after midnight, then again just around sunrise, but only 0.05 in the gauge. Guess that is better than zero. Currently 60.4/58.8 and cloudy at 8 am.
  6. Yep, couple years ago I had one 'hollering' while on the phone (and the back door open) with my now wife (she was still living in CA at the time) and she heard it through the phone! She said 'what in the world was that?!?'
  7. Almost 10 degrees warmer this morning, currently 46.5/41.8 at 8 am.
  8. No frost here (I rarely get a frost, wind blows thru a 'gap' even in calmest air here at the house) but seen plenty around when out earlier this morning. Low was 36.8, currently 38.4/34.0 at 7:45 am. Edit- went back and looked, record is 30 degrees for date set in 1993 and 2000.
  9. There are two fires near me in Alleghany County, one wild and one prescribed, but I think most of that smoke is going north/northwest on light SE winds.
  10. True, looking back at my records I have 5 50 degree or greater nights and 5 30 degree or lower nights for this date!
  11. Managed to set a new 'warm minimum' with a 58.4 degree low, JUST breaking 2002's 58 degree mark. It has felt more like early June rather than mid/late April past few days. Oh, a giant 0.03 in the gauge this am, least it got wet lol.
  12. Another warm day and night, high was 83.3, low 55.6. Close to records (89 1985 and 57 in 1992), but not quite there. Currently partly cloudy and 61.4/57.3 at 8:20 am.
  13. Zoomed up to 85.3 degrees around 4 pm when the clouds cleared, not a record (88 in 1985), but WAY too warm for April IMO. Currently 73.3/47.5 at 8:40 pm.
  14. 79.6/42.2 at 5:30 pm, in April, yuck. SSW wind 13 gusting 25 mph, double yuck.
  15. Semi-lucky again, low was 30.5. Currently 30.9/27.0 with clear skies. Appears that it is SLIGHTLY warmer up on ridges than down low, as in town it is 28-29. Canaan NWR currently 13.1!!
  16. Montreal needs 1 ONE! point to make that happen.
  17. Stayed above 40 overnight, 41.5 low here. Currently 42.1/29.7 and partly cloudy. JUST to my north and higher in elevation ground is white, lol, only sprinkles/drizzle here.
  18. 0.31 on 3 separate thunderstorm/showers last evening/night. VIVID lightning and thunder with 1st storm. Made it up to 55 around 11 am, now falling on gusty NW winds. Currently 52.2/37.6 with clouds and NW wind 11 gusting to 28 mph.
  19. How did that 0.23 manage to fall in the western VA deserts?
  20. Back below freezing this am. Low was 28.7, currently 29.2/26.5 at 7:25 am. Edit- record 19 in 1990.
  21. Made it up to 51.0 just before noon, then it started to rain. Temp down to 47.7/46.1, about 0.10 in the gauge eyeballing it from the window.
  22. Low for period was 24.7, which happened around 8 am. Not even close to the record of 14 from 1985, which also had about an inch of snow OTG. I remember we almost hit 90 before the end of that month!! Currently cloudy and 40.9/34.5 at 7:55 am.
  23. Low was 24.8 here this morning at 6:15 am, sort of a warm outliner for what I'm see around the area (19-22). That 24.8 is not close to a record (20 degrees in 2007), but still chilly.
  24. Feels closer to what it SHOULD be at this time of the year (37.2 low) and a nice .90 rain total over last 36 hours. NWS missed low, called for 32. Nothing here, but ground is white to my west and north a little higher in elevation.
  25. I'm 95-97% sure NWS won't issue freeze/frost warnings until 'growing season' (which is an attempt to figure out when the last freeze/frost generally happens) starts, UNLESS it is obvious that the season has started. I think it is sorta silly, once things start blooming/growing you should issue warnings. I think our growing season back here doesn't officially start until last week of April.
