More Winter weather, not as nice

Today in the DC region we saw some more winter weather, but more of the sleet and rain mix. Was quite cold and somewhat windy. A good thick cloud deck kept the skies darker than normal, and the overall mood was not as nice as with the small snow storm from a few days ago.

There is a chance I'll be doing some Internet radio shows coming up with the folks at WeatherTalkRadio, so stay tuned for details on that.

Snow and cold

Well, it did snow the Friday before Easter, first time I can remember snow in April.

Cold temperatures continue throught this weekend, and some forecasters have mentioned the possibility of a few snow flakes here and there. No accumulation expected though.

Depending on how warm the temperatures get prior to the cold front pushing through, we may see a flash of lightning or two. This would be simular to our set-up a couple of weeks ago, were there was few thunderstorms, followed later by snow showers.

Folks around the DC area have mentioned the tension and depression felt by residents, who are impatiently awaiting the spring warm up. I have noticed a lack of volunteers for the spring events in my local amateur radio club. I'm thinking a lot of people are still in hypernation mode.
