MN Transplant Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Not CWG, but the Post had an unintentionally funny story this morning about people (mostly women) being annoyed that we jumped right into Summer without an opportunity to prepare themselves (tanning, pedicures, ironing summer clothes).

H2O Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 yesterday got an 8/10...today's +15-20 with dew points near 60 gets a 10/10 and has been described as perfect...How soon before CWG apologizes for the cold 68 and sunny this weekend? I swear that people who give days like yesterday and today a 10/10 never go outside for any length of time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just walked around in the sun and it is markedly uncomfortable. We just got told how beautiful it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtropics Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Not true. Outside all the time and these days are definitely 10/10. Anything over 80 and below 110 is a 10/10. Dews around 70 preferred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More women need to follow the weather - while I didn't tan, I did paint my nails, and pull out summer clothes over the weekend so I was ready for this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Yesterday was hot and uncomfortable. I was outside from 2-6. My dog didn't even want to run around. He just lazily walked and laid in the shade of tree trunks. No leaves on the trees yet means no shade under a canopy. I could see 6-7 out of 10 but anything above that is foolish.

Deck Pic Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share Posted April 13, 2013 best 10/10 day ever....blew away the two 86 degree muggy 10/10 days this week....days like that make me wonder why the daily digit even exists... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deck Pic Posted April 14, 2013 Author Share Posted April 14, 2013 Very well done by Ian and Brian this weekend. The heat trio (Rogers/Stillman/Streit) are back on duty this week so my enthusiasm will be short lived. But for the moment. Well Done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deck Pic Posted May 6, 2013 Author Share Posted May 6, 2013 The amount of editorializing about how absolutely awful this week is going to be, such that it may send people into complete despondency is annoying and over the top. May gets like this...almost every year...we have had an amazing spring so far...especially the weekend...Is this necessary?..Is it part of as strategy I am unaware of? I understand that CWG has a responsibility to the Post, so maybe this is part of protocol? It is really not a big deal that we are going to get some clouds and rain this week...It isn't anomalous or noteworthy...Only in DC are some overcast days in the 60s cause for a suicide watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was between a 7 or an 8 for you...perhaps 7 was unfair...I'll give you an 8...certainly not a 10...but mostly you and Jason have been better than everyone at the daily digit....I don't think some of the others care....or even try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not a 10 but people seemed to like it based on comments. 8 is a very nice day...It was definitely nice out....I was outside for much of the PM, and it was a bit muggy, but not sweat inducing, and also cloudy...after the 9/10 77/44 crisp blue skies from the day before, you oversold it, but usually you are within 1-2 points of what I think, and I have a slight cold bias Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scuddz Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 What is the point if you aren't even going to give it a half-effort? what's that got to do with anything. Apparently, I think higher of upper 80s/low 60s with low dews than upper 60s/lower 40s or whatever your ideal day is. We've been over this, its subjective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to get a truly sunny day. I went mostly sunny at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
