Mrs.J Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 So I read that the smoke from the fire out in VA was blowing into areas around DC today. Is it possible that this thick haze up here in Frederick is also some of that smoke from the fire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clueless Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Depending on how deep the trough digs in the west it could be upper 80's. Is that better? Toasty. Just what we want from April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Was outside all day and I didn't smell anything, but just took the dog for a walk and there is a smokiness to the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandymanColumbusGA Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Welcome to what we dealt with Monday and Tuesday down here in Charlottesville. Here's hoping they see enough rain tomorrow that the smoke won't be too terrible by the time the wind switches back to the N-NW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTRWx Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Was outside all day and I didn't smell anything, but just took the dog for a walk and there is a smokiness to the air. What's the best radar detection method for smoky haze if any? I noticed cc was full of clutter... eta: came across an interesting publication https://www.nssl.noaa.gov/publications/wsr88d_reports/15-2_IIPS_2009.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 We could definitely use some rain in my part of the Mid-Atlantic - but the first line of showers looks like it is drying up. Hopefully the afternoon showers chances are legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to impressive looking at the moment. I'm keeping hope alive for something later on. It's nice sitting out here on patio. Well.. EXCEPT FOR MY FU****G NEIGHBOR GOING NUTS WITH THE WEED WACKER! But, yeah. It's beautiful out here. The beech trees are leafing out nicely in the woods behind my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
