15.1 for the low.  Really thought we were primed for about 5 degrees colder with fairly calm winds, 4" of fresh snowpack and clear skies.  Has to be the time change since we lost a crucial hour of cooling!

Bring on Spring!

Sun is making it feel way warmer out there than the air temperature says.  Looking forward to the spring weather this week - low 70s and sunny on Friday!

Friday’s forecast temps are far more anomalous to normal than today’s

42/16

Bottomed out at 22 last night. Ice still under car despite southern exposure. Hope crazy temps later in the week don't verify. 70s in May = good, green spring in bloom. 70s in March = brown grass, bugs and stinking mud. :thumbsdown:  Wild temp swings are hell on the sinuses, too!

Did the "Fake extra daylight clock change thing". Ugh

With persistent offshore flow and a strong previous ebb tide out of
the Bay, a Low Water Advisory has been issued for the Chesapeake
Bay, the rivers, and the coastline from Chincoteague north. Expect
low tide to reach below normal levels for several cycles. Right now
the product is in effect from now through 7pm tonight, but it may
need to be extended/reissued in later forecast updates if this flow
pattern persists.

Makes me wonder if the low water in the Bay recently has anything to do with the cargo ship that's stuck off of Gibson Island.

Ship deviated from the main channel, but it's not out of the realm of possibility it played a role.

Sitting outside on the patio at 7:15 with shorts on, drinking a margarita.  Amazing!

Forgot to glance at your posting time and thought you posted that this morning....instant thought was, "MAN, he's hardcore!!"  :D 

Oh, and it's currently 57...hopefully making that successful run into the mid 70s today.
