Sounds like my kind of weather.
And I wish you had it. :ranting:

Actually my lake saved me again. :wish: We had pretty much the same forecast and it did jump up crazy all around me as little as 5 miles south to the high 80'sF/30C for a few hours before a big dip that produced some bad storms for others. :( Being less than 500 feet from the lake it topped off at 64F for me and I couldn't be happier. :nana:

(I don't live here by accident :wink: )

52F right now (2:21AM) getting up to 58F today with light rain likely from about 8AM this morning until about 5PM this afternoon (Probability 50% or greater). As if the ground needed more water. :(

40F right now (2:30AM) getting up to 54F today with cloudy skies. If the winds die down some, maybe I can at least get the front lawn mowed this morning. I hope ... I hope. :) Also want to replace the clothes dryer outside vent. :wish:

Our dry season has snuck up on us while we were away. You could survive here for almost 30 minutes outside, as opposed to the 5 you'd last in the wet.

Rai again today, and it's cooled off: currently 55.3F/12.9C, with a projected high of 57F/13.9C.

38F right now (b-r-r-r-r) getting up to 64F ( :) ). Sunny skies will be nice and it looks like the winds are going to be light (for a change). Last couple of days weren't bad temperature-wise, but the wind made it seem much cooler. :(

Another cold (for May) day today: 48.4F/9.1C; forecast high of 60F/15.6C. Partly cloudy to clear skies, not much chance of rain, relative humidity 41%.

60F right now (3:40AM) getting up to 81F (Actually a bit warm for mid-May with the average high for this day only 70F). Gotta admit, though, the warm weather right now is feeling pretty nice. :)

Clear today, after yesterday's overcast all day. Oddly enough, it's still fairly cool for the date: average is 83F/28C, but right now it is only 66.9F/19.4C, with a forecast high of 74F/23C.

69F and clear getting up to 90F with sunny skies today. I think we're reaching a point where a nice shower would be something good. No storms. No hail. No Power Outages ... just a nice steady rain ... ideally at night but that may be pushing the wish too far. :D

dicksbro
06-13-2017, 03:06 AM
77F at 3AM ( :yikes: ) ... getting up to 91F today. Grass is starting to turn brownish. We are definitely needing some rain.

Not so warm today. Currently 72F with mostly cloudy skies only getting up to 78F ( :) ) today with partly sunny skies. Got more good rain last night. A bit of a strong storm, but I don't think we got any damage ( :wish: ). I actually slept through it but my wife heard it.

We had a tornado warning in my neighborhood today; AFAIK, there was no actual tornado damage.

But I was standing in front of my local bank (under a hard-covered walkway) when the building itself was struck by lightning.

75F right now (1:40AM). T-storms until around 6 (none right now) then light rain until 9AM or so. Then, partly cloudy to partly sunny getting up to 79F for a high. Seems like we've had a number of days like this over the past week or so. Grass is greening back up and I've mowed at least the front lawn for the first time in about two weeks.

Temperature at present is a relatively balmy 13C (about 55F) but a 26-30mph southerly wind which will get up to 60mph+ overnight.

The tail-end of Hurricane Ophelia apparently which has already done a bit of no good in Ireland.

Oh joy.

Currently 59F/15C; predicted high of 75F/23.9C. Relative humidity 100% (means it's really foggy now, typical for the DC area on an autumn morning). Dry today, with little chance of rain,; that will change tonight probably, we're probably due for some overnight thunderstorms (we could use the rain, it's been a while).

Be in the high teens this morning with rain/ice/snow beginning around noon. Less than an inch of snow predicted and only about 1/10th of an inch of ice. Obviously, roads could be quite slippery, but hopefully temperatures rising this afternoon and evening into the mid-30s by morning should help remove the threat by the time my wife has to head back to school (it starts again tomorrow). By later this week, temps up into the 50s are expected so maybe my car will finally get the salt washed off and it'll look like a car again. :) That'd be nice. Every time we get in the car now, the salt rubs off on our jackets and accumulates on the cuffs of my pants. :(

* When... snow and sleet will transition to freezing rain through
the midday hours, eventually becoming rain this afternoon.

* Additional details... plan on slippery Road conditions. Be
prepared for reduced visibilities at times.

I haven't actually looked out yet, but when my wife came to bed around 11PM last night she estimated we had about 4 or 5" of snow on the ground. Sounds like I may have to shovel this morning. :(

It's 3F right now getting up to 19F today. No more snow predicted although when it's that cold, it seems like you can see a few flurries every now and then. It will be cloudy, I guess. :shrug:

30F now getting up to 32F later with cloudy skies. At one point there's about a 50% chance of snow showers, but we'll see. I hope not. I'm about snowed out for this winter. :)

30F and mostly cloudy now (5:17AM) and only getting up to 39F today also with cloudy skies. The good news is that Spring is only a month away. Pretty high probability of icy conditions this morning although when I looked out, it didn't look like we had received much YET. Hopefully, it'll pass us by. Yesterday was enough.

41F now going up to only 43F today .... but, it's a small move in the right direction. Looks like we'll mainly be in the 40's and 50's for the next week with only one chance of rain. That'll be a welcome relief. Ground is really soaked. Oh, yeah, our cloudy skies will still be here today. Been nice to have had the sun shining.

41F/5C right now: going up to a high of 43F/6.1C. Partly cloudy, and we have a high wind warning in effect.
...A HIGH-IMPACT WINDSTORM IS ONGOING FOR THE GREATER
BALTIMORE/WASHINGTON REGION OF THE MID-ATLANTIC OVERNIGHT THROUGH
EARLY SATURDAY MORNING...

At 7:00 AM EST, high winds have spread across the region, with
recently observed wind gusts at Washington Dulles International
Airport of 67 MPH, Washington Reagan National Airport of 62 MPH,
Naval Air Station Patuxent River of 66 MPH, Joint Force Andrews of
62 MPH, and Baltimore/Washington International Marshall Airport
of 52 MPH. Other high wind gust reports include of 69 MPH in
Gaithersburg in Montgomery County MD, and Ballenger Creek in
Frederick County MD.

Strong-to-damaging northwest winds will continue across the
region, sustained at 30-40 MPH, with gusts 60-70 MPH. Isolated
wind gusts could reach 80 mph, particularly at higher elevations
west of the Interstate 95 corridor. The strongest winds will occur
through Noon EST today; however, winds will continue to gust from
55-65 MPH this afternoon and continue through tonight.

This will be a prolonged, high-impact windstorm for the region,
with many downed trees and power lines expected. In addition to
the magnitude of the high wind gusts, the duration of the winds
will add to the hazardous nature of this event, as winds will
continue through the weekend before diminishing below 30 mph
Sunday afternoon. This will hamper the repair of power lines and
tree removal.

Widespread power outages are occurring. Travel is dangerous,
especially for high profile vehicles, and motorists need to be
aware of rapidly changing road conditions due to the potential of
downed trees and power lines. Pedestrians will face very
hazardous conditions, and need to be aware of wind-borne
projectiles. People should avoid being outside in forested areas
and around trees and branches. If possible, remain in the lower
levels of your homes during the windstorm, and avoid windows. If
you use a portable generator, follow manufacturer's instructions
and do not use inside homes, garages, or apartments.

^^^^ :yikes: Sounds like you folks really got a taste of Mother Natures sometimes fierce behavior. When I heard on the Weather Channel yesterday that the E. Coast could expect very strong winds I thought of all you and said some prayers for your safety. Hopefully none of you were hurt. :wish:

Here ... now ... we're at 33F and 10 min. to 1AM with clear skies getting up to 51F today with sunny skies. Winds should be in the 5-10mph range.

Sunny and around the predicted high of 48F/8.9C right now; Some minor winds left over, but the big weather-related news is, the storm partially took down a highway sign in Northern Virginia; the authorities had to close the interstate in the middle of rush hour Friday, and the crane to finish removing the sign could operate in the winds even yesterday. Removing the sign is an 11-hour operation, so the interstate, along with a couple of more local roads, is *still* closed. Should be re-opened soon, though.
