[wxdude64]

Low was 35.4 degrees, chilly but not a record (30 from 1996). No frost here, but lower elevation and down next to the river it is heavy!

[nj2va]

Nice morning, I'm enjoying this coolness.  You know it'll be in short supply soon.

[87storms]

This weather is big time.

[kgottwald]

We got through summer in less than a month, now welcome autumn!

[GATECH]

I am going to declare this the nicest day of spring so far.   72, not a cloud in the sky, gentle breeze at times pollen seems nil…perfect!

[WEATHER53]

It was nice until the clouds rolled into Frederick.  Looks like they're only slowing moving further south and east (where it also snows more now lol).  Really hard to get 3 nice days in a row here.  I'm ready for the return of summer.

[katabatic]

Chilly low of 31 and now in the low 40s with a wind whipped light rain. Spastic spring continues even for out here. 

[CAPE]

Perfect early May day imo.

59 and partly sunny. Getting lots of outside work done. Waaayyy better than 80s and humid, which we can easily get this time of year.

48/31 today. Currently 36 with a bit of a breeze. Felt like a November day (except for the greenery). If we clear out and decouple tonight, temps will likely get well into the 20s. 

[Weather Will]

43. No frost.  Flowers survive another day!

[wxdude64]

High 58.0, low 33.8. Although under a freeze warning we got neither a freeze nor frost due to the light N/NW breezes that never became still overnight. Both those temps nowhere near records either, 49 in 1995 and 28 in 1981. Currently 34.0/27.9 at 7:45 am under clear skies with NNW at 5 mph winds. 

[MN Transplant]

Currently running at my low year-to-date precip over my 13-year CoCoRahs record.  Not great.

[midatlanticweather]

38.4 degrees for the low. No Frost but pretty cold

[BlizzardNole]

42 for the low which is good since I have sensitive stuff out.  Looking forward to Monday/Tuesday nice weather!  I hope I don't get another whiff on the rain midweek

[snowfan]

39 for the low imby. Really nice veterans day weekend weather. In May. 

[Herb@MAWS]

40.5 Sunday morning low imby/Columbia.
