Isn’t that just like the media? They get you all worked up about an impending Terrorist attack, and nothing happens. Not that I’m complaining — no, not by any means. 😉 DC-area anchor-person’s reports of late could easily be likened to those of junior Meteorologists.Â
There’s a 50% chance of nerve-agents for the weekend, clearing up Monday, when we’ll see mostly cloudy skies and a temperature upwards of 5000°F during the morning rush.
We’re also supposed to have “the biggest storm of the season” this weekend. And, of course, they’re always wrong.
Phbbbt … It’s Valentine’s Day … The current outlook is partly cloudy and cold through the day, with hot. tropical conditions after 6PM.

What’s really funny … The day after writing this, we were hit with the biggest storm of the season. Snow, at the rate of one foot per hour. Since everything shut down (including the government, so I didn’t have to work), Miranda and I made the best of it by going out and snowball fighting, driving around, trashbag-sledding, hiking, etc…
Of course, this was much to the chagrin of Washingtonians, who tend towards being a little … well … pompous.
