Verified! For the fishes! 

[wxmeddler]

The cold front emerging out from the rain along the Blue Ridge right now with no convection associated with it would absolutely be a way to cap off this day.

[87storms]

Wind is getting spicy.

[aldie 22]

These wind gusts are legit 39.5 with .86 on the day 

[wxmeddler]

Wind gusts to 40 mph even without the convection. Temps falling 10 deg in 5 minutes with the front.

The biggest question will be how much of this will be able to mix down now that the sun is down.
