I'm surprised to see this intensity and this widespread of a thunderstorm event. There's lots of lightning crashing all around here in the lowlands. Bring on the rain. We need it.

80 again.  That's 11 days this month of 80+ and 15 days so far this year.

We've also had 9 days so far this year with lows of 60+F

An impressively warm April.

Ominous clouds to the west of the Fairfax Courthouse. Radar unclear if the rain will hit or miss.

[kgottwald]

Smells like rain but no precip yet. Overcast plus the low dewpoint making it feel downright cool.

[kgottwald]

Thunder to the south

Raindrops on the sidewalk.

Close but nada. High 76, 73 now.

[kgottwald]

Sun came back out.

Neither the NWS nor the WeatherBug radars seem to be all that accurate as to where the rain is actually hitting the ground.

10/10 weather the last couple days.  Disappointed about the weekend forecast, but getting that 3rd nice day in a row is not usually easy here until we get to May.
