easternsnowman Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 If you like 95 with dew points in the 60s, summer can be a lot of fun here Just a bit cooler version of that....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrederickWX Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I think the question is whether we go warm for 2-3 days and then reload..I'm not sure we get into any long term warm pattern any time soon....but even in a cold pattern in early April a sunny day will be 55-60 Yeah, we'll see. I'm still somewhat skeptical of any real extended warmth for early April, but I guess we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subtropics Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Hopefully we can squeeze out a 90/65 in early June. This weather is awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowfan Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Anyone calling for 90/65 is nuts. Give me a gradual progression towards summer, please. I'd love a week of 70/45 with bluebird skies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowfan Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I enjoy those days too....in early May when they are normal but how many of those have we actually had in May in recent years? It seems like we've had very little spring weather in recent years. We've gone from winter to summer without much in between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've gone from winter to summer without much in between. It is very hard in DC to get a killer May....It is a very volatile month..We torch...or..we are super wet...or even in drier/cooler months, we are under some E/NE marine flow for days at a time rather than some popping pattern....From a weather perspective, May is interesting, but it is a mediocre month for me....if we are lucky, we can pop a couple 3-4 day stretches with crisp blue skies and low dews...that is usually the best we can hope for....the fall is a much better time to get killer stretches...October blows May the **** out of the water....of course it is a cooler month overall...but something like October 2008 which was basically wire to wire killer weather is better than any May I can ever remember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVclimo Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 "Nicest" May I can remember was 1986. Relentless sunshine every day. Felt like it would never rain again. My favorite May was 1989. Thunderstorm after thunderstorm, day after day, with torrential downpours and flooding. I had over 10" of rain living in Laurel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Seriously? Thinking maybe we could fit some Spring in before we jump to 90 degrees. Euro is aob door to door for the most part. I personally like low 50s and sun. I wear shorts no prob. Below normal temps this time of year feels like early spring more often then not. The occasional really cool days bring out the wine and cheese party though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty cool through most of their 15 day as well. It was warmer in January. Lol. I am with you on the 50s. No shorts though, thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoast NPZ Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 I think Ji brought up the subject of this being a long winter. It really feels like one of the longest I can remember. We've been tracking snow from late October now to April. That's half a calendar year. That's amazing. Of course, what's more amazing is that those 6 months of snow tracking have produced - except for us westerners - exactly nothing so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, what's more amazing is that those 6 months of snow tracking have produced - except for us westerners - exactly nothing so far It has been but it was only "winter cold" for a couple weeks. I've been out almost every weekend playing disc golf or hiking with the dog. I enjoy all seasons and as much as I post about it, snow is just a fun hobby. If it isn't cold and snowy I'm outside enjoying the weather. Even when it's below freezing during the day it's not that big of a deal. 40's are warmish. I fish a lot on the bay during trophy season and the cooler the better. I root for cool cloudy aprils but i keep it to myself so the wine and cheese party doesn't break out. I like extended cool way way more than extended heat. Being in the sun when it's 95 and thick still air is the absolute worst. My least favorite condition by a mile. Those conditions keep me indoors. Not anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 He has six exclamation points in about six sentences! DCA is -1 thru yesterday. It's cold compared to the +10 last year but it could be worse locally. Plus for some reason he's using the current avg high as a baseline for the month thru today.
