adelphi_sky Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Will this affect my afternoon run? Just kidding. But I do have a question. Those winds in DE look scary. Cat 1 type winds. Will we see those here? Hell, even 50mph winds would be scary in the DC area after such heavy rains last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we expecting the peak of the synoptic winds early this afternoon? Not in the same way. The synoptic winds stayed elevated here. Any storms we get could mix down good winds, but that will be only in a scattered sense. The post-frontal wind should be breezy, but not anything special.
