It snowed very heavily for about 12 minutes and that is now a frozen granular on elevated surfaces like tables and cars. Going to be some windshield frustrations early tomororw.

Currently 33.2 and some of the gusts are wind chills in teens.

I am going for the HOME RUN now and that is-Accumulating snow in May!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is splendid jebwalk weather! There's a nice northerly breeze, gusting to 37 mph and a cool temperature of 33 degrees with a refreshing dewpoint of 22 degrees! It feels like a comfortable 14 degrees!

 

This sure beats that midsummer slop we had to put up with the last couple days! The pollen is washed out and the flowers have been beaten down by the wind, rain, sleet and snow. The cherry blossoms were all whipped off the trees and blown into the Tidal Basin where they can sink to the bottom. The touristas can cry me a mighty river over the loss of their damn cherry blossoms and will be left coughing in the cold.

 

Winter to the rescue!!!!!!!

Its 32 degrees with a dewpoint of 19 degrees! We have a wonderful northerly breeze. Some of these wind gusts are over 35 mph. This is one of the sweetest, most splendid April evenings I have ever experienced in my entire life!

 

Be sure to get out and enjoy it! It's pure AWESOMENESS!!!!!!  :hug:  :clap:  :thumbsup:  :wub:  :bike:  :guitar:

I'll go with 0.1" IMBY last night.  Came down really hard for about 2 hours, but temps were still above freezing.  But, there was accumulation on all non-paved surfaces and even some remaining this morning.  Here's the spotter reports:
