Wow.  I never thought we’d go the distance. With this wind I think it will be tough to achieve a freeze.

Just was out umpiring a coed softball league game... had to do a 1-2 count to start the innings since the wind was so bad for the pitchers instead of the usual 1-1 count -  both coaches agreed with doing that.  Hopkins won 18-9 over Mason.  Its CAN league softball btw

Can you imagine the whining if DCA popped three degrees above their highest ob temperature intra-hour.  IAD is such a freakshow station. 

IAD actually went from 34F at 6:32am to 29F at 6:40am with a break in the winds. A 5 degree F drop in 8 minutes.

I disconnected the heater from the birdbath last weekend - -whoops!  It had a quarter inch of ice on it this morning.  Looking forward to a really nice weekend in the low 60s with sun.

OT: if anyone watches the show "Designated Survivor" -- the last few episodes they have shown shots of the White House and DC with snow on the ground and snow falling.  LOL it looks like DC's a snow town on that show.

Counter-point, it is still too cold for a lot of people for this time of year. Me included. I took a long walk at lunch around the harbor, covered 3 and a half miles, and with the wind it was downright cold. So...not perfect, not even close. We're about 14 degrees low from a normal high for this time of year.

Maybe the Harbor is windier than other spots. Breeze is pretty light around here and I think it feels really nice. But I can only speak for myself.

If this were October with a lower sun angle, this would suck. For me it's just bearable

That's great for you. Truly. For others, it's not as swell. It is what it is. The 10 day forecast has below normal highs the entire time. DT just tweeted that May looks cold. So, those that like it cool should continue to be pleased. Those that wanted warmer spring temps will likely be disappointed. Hopefully the wind backs off at some point so even on the cooler days it doesn't have the bite that days like today have.

I’m a little worried about what 95 is going to feel like this summer when today’s 54 feels really warm in the sun. Granted, I’m in a semi protected area from wind and I’m brewing beer (doublespeak for tossing a couple back) but it feels pretty good out here.

Of course, I’d like it about ten degrees warmer and no wind so I could get out and enjoy my bike, but considering what we’ve had, today is a keeper.
