Part 1:

Well, i hope you've enjoyed your weekend, because it was beautiful, and warm, with temperatures in the 70's for most... You better get used to it because we are not only going to be talking about more 70's, but even 80's!!!! Believe it or not we could even see the thermometer hit 90 degrees Fahrenheit!!!! So let's get started... When i walked outside this afternoon i could have sworn it was 80 degrees outside... It was only 68!!!! The combination of the bright burning sun, no clouds, and no wind, is making it to feel 5-10+ degrees higher than it really is!!!! Tomorrow you will feel a rapid difference... For most of you south of I-80, temps will be in the mid 70's and maybe a couple of 80's... That will feel burning!!!! So get ready with your lotion and beach umbrellas, because you will need them... North of I-80 tomorrow temps will be in the lower to mid 70's, which will also feel very hot outside... By Wednesday we will be at the peak of our warmth!!!! How could it get any hotter? Well Wednesday South of I-80 will be in the mid and upper 80's... And if you go south of DC, you may be able hit 90!!!! So is this record breaking? Well it could be, but as of right now it seems it will stay just below record breaking level... Same goes for north of I-80, where temps will be in the mid to lower 80's and just below record breaking... Although it may not be record breaking, it will be well above average... Possibly 15-20 maybe even 30 degrees above average!!!! I spent a lot of time on the following chart, so i hope you like it... I think it explains very clearly the current warm situation that is going on...



Part 2:

Well, whether there is a slight chance for some snow or not, it will be getting colder... When i say colder though, i mean average for this time of year... Believe it or not, although temps are in the 70's and 80's, most averages for April are in the 50's and lower 60's... So that's basically the cold we are talking about... Temps in the 50's and 60's... The other bad part of this is it will likely be cloudy and rainy as well, so it may feel 3-5 degrees cooler then it really is... As for the freaky models showing snow, it is slowly going away on the GFS, and I'm sure it probably won't happen... It looks like April Fools was just playing another joke! So when will this cold start? Well it looks like Thursday will be the very last day of the Warm Weather... After that it will get cloudy and possibly rainy as a cold front comes through... So we go from 70's and 80's... To 50's and 60's... Not a pleasant change... Plus Sun to Rain... So, a bit of a switch coming... It looks like this cool weather will last into next week as well...

Part 3:

Well, since the heat is streaming in, we actually may see some heat lightning tomorrow, along with a couple of scattered showers and storm related lighting... Really some of the first thunderstorms of the year!!!! So spring is really here!!!! But this isn't really anything to worry about... It seems on Friday we will have a little bit more to worry about regarding the rain... Looks like we are going to see a classic cold front come through the area, bring with it some shower which will vary between light and moderate... Don't be surprised if there are once again some storms mixed in with this rain... That's it for now... Be thankful it's not a nor'easter!!!!

Part 4:

Warm, warm, warm and more warm!!!! You thought today was warm?!?! Yeah it felt like 80, but it was only 68!!!! Imagine when it hits 72 tomorrow and then 80 on Wednesday!!!! Wednesday it will probably feel like the mid 90's!!!! Just crazy heat, considering the average temperature is only around 60!!!! Sadly the warmth will come to an end sometime later Thursday along with showers and some scattered storms... This will lead to temps closer to normal... Lots of 50's and 60's will show up this weekend along with clouds and showers... This seems to continue into next week... So even though it will turn cold, be thankful that there is no snow!!!! That's it for now!!!! Enjoy the weather...

Part 5:

Well i have come to a decision regarding the video blog!!!! On Monday, April 12 2010, I will try the first Video blog ever... So what is a video blog? Well you can check plenty of them out on Accuweather.com and Weather.com... It is pretty much all the information i usually give, just me speaking it and recording it... This time you will actually be able to see all the maps and pictures which will go along with it... If you are confused, don't worry... You will see what it is on Monday, so don't miss it!!!! If it goes well, then i may continue it!!!! That's it for now... Get ready for a different kind of blog!!!!....
