"Because there is always a 100% chance of weather!"
There were reports of some light snow and sleet overnight, but nothing dramatic. Washington DC tied a record for the date for a trace of snow around 11PM last night. Rain will be on the increase this afternoon and overnight. Rain will be quite heavy at times overnight. Tomorrow will be extremely windy with falling…
The next 24 hors are a bit complicated. The further north you are the better the chances that you would see some sleet and freezing rain, even snow tonight. Nothing looks heavy and areas should start warming fairly quickly to turn things to rain. A cold raw day is on hand. Areas in Pennsylvania could…
I am not saying that areas in the north, especially immediate piedmont and valley locations will not see some frozen precip, but models now run the Sunday/Monday low that was potentially going to be very far south, up into the Great Lakes ending any thoughts of real snow here. This low will tap Canadian air…

First off, areas did fairly well th last 24 hours north and west of Virginia in the rain department. Parts of Maryland say an inch or more in rain. Things clear up and temps really stay close to where they are this morning. Colder air arrives this weekend, and a storm system approaches from the…
Rain could be heavy at times today and then overnight there is even a chance for isolates thunderstorms as the front moves through. This system will not tap the colder areas of Canada so it will leave seasonal weather in its wake. A front moves through Thursday that will send temperatures to below normal values…
Last night on my trip from Gettysburg to Sterling Virginia I hit several pockets of Snow Pellets and sleet. Sleet was also reported in Central Virginia this morning which was associated with some energy and overrunning of rain. Rain will come in tomorrow and tomorrow night. Temperatures will remain in the low to mid 50s…

A front and associated weather system will cause some rain here Monday. Seasonal temperatures in the 50s will persist much of the week, but turning slightly…

This morning snow fell in many western areas including areas just to my west in Purcellville, VA! Pretty exciting to see it so close. 3 disturbance are swinging or have swung through the region leaving much more rains today than first thought! Coldest high of the Fall with highs in the low 40s today. As…
Amazing what stronger overnight winds that are downsloping from the mountains will do. I woke up to 44 degrees which was warmer than my 8PM reading last night. Breezy and cool conditions will prevail today with areas in the upper 40s in the north to mid and upper 50s in the south. Tonight will have…

A nice rain fell last night with the front and that rain should be ending in the east by later morning. Cooler air now moves in and will persist until about Sunday when warmer conditions will begin. Temps at night will dip into the 20s for many areas especially Wednesday night. Now, there is a…
