Mrs.J Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 live webcam from arapahoe basin. 10/10 abasin2.JPG Oh I could dive into that right now. Just did Field Day at my girls school. Outside from 8:30 till 3. The cool shower I took when I got home only put a dent in cooling me down. MapGirl sorry to hear that your little one is in the hospital. My thoughts for a speedy recovery for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Highs today: IAD -- 89 BWI -- 89 DCA -- 90 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clueless Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 88 for the high at the nearest official reading and 91 for the nearest wxbug reading. hot for our new daily evening walk but we survived. (my husband had a stroke 2 weeks ago and we are in full-on recovery mode. thankfully it was a rare type of stroke not caused by a blockage which could affect anyone of any age and he has no intellectual or physical deficiencies (it only affected 2 mm of his brain)). Wonderful that your husband is doing well! I think the best time to walk now is after 9 pm. The dog won't even go out in the daytime in this weather. He just thinks I am crazy when I open the door for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw baltimore wx Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 thanks for the kind words. you are right that later is better for walking in these temps in May, but he is up at 5 am for work... once your dog and we all are acclimated to the temps it will be better. We are actually in the hospital. She may have viral meningitis ... I'm sorry and hope that both families are on the road to recovery soon. Reading what you all are going through makes complaining about the weather seem a little petty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWxLuvr Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 this weather f-ucking sucks Look on the bright side. At least now, some of our posters are able to leave the house without worry of freezing to death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 When the overnight low is higher than my preferred high I feel like kicking yard bunnies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattie g Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 It really wasn't too bad yesterday. It was on the warm side, but certainly not unbearable if you throw on some shorts and a t-shirt. Besides...things that grow - like fruits and vegetable and flowers - actually do well in warm weather. Yay for the warm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides...things that grow - like fruits and vegetable and flowers - actually do well in warm weather. Yay for the warm! While I like it for things to grow and generally do not mind a hot day, having to work out in it at my girls Field Day yesterday it was not bearable. While they were inside for some of their activities and a long lunch they were out for most of the day. I started outside at 8:30 and after a lunch break was back out till after 3 in direct sun. My clothing was soaked from the sweat at the end. The kids and adults alike were spent, and the only thing that brought them back was the fire truck which hosed them all down at the end. It was down right nasty out yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattskiva Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I was looking at that tower as I was driving home. Looks like another has popped up just west of here, out in Prince William and southwestern Fairfax Counties. Somehow the storm that crossed I-66 managed to transfer its energy north, close to dulles, and just missed my house (based on radar it missed me by like a mile). I've been getting thunder and lightning in the distance and very dark clouds for the last 30 minutes but not a drop of rain. I need the rain.
