After more than 50 years, the leap second is being retired. ⏰ These occasional tweaks to our clocks help keep time aligned with Earth's rotation. But they've become a headache for modern technology. Here's why scientists decided it's time to stop messing with time — and what changes next May: capitalweather.com/times-up-…

Good Sunday morning! Today's highs in the low 60s are right on average for the time of year. Not as windy today as yesterday, but still breezy, with a stronger breeze Monday. Warmer midweek before a cold front brings a late-week chance of showers (and snowflakes?)

Today’s Mid-Atlantic Severe Weather Conference was a super experience! Great presentations about severe storms all-around and I actually learned some new concepts! My thanks to @MLseverewxcon, @capitalweather, and @WxFront for some great conversations! #MASWC

Winter outlooks are basically lockstep stormy, but generally also warmish. There's still a sense of something big lurking in the shadows. New seasonal outlook from the European model hints at that potential capitalweather.com/european-…

Feeling like November, finally! 🍂 After weeks of unusual warmth, we're in for a sunny but brisk weekend, with highs mostly in the 50s and a gusty breeze today. Temps rebound early next week before a stronger cold front arrives late week. That could bring our first highs stuck in the 50s this season.

We're forecasting good 💚 #AirQuality throughout the #Baltimore-#DC area this weekend. Doing a seasonal wardrobe swap and cleaning out your closet in the process? Sell or donate clothes you no longer wear. In landfills, textile waste emits methane and carbon dioxide. 👖👚👔👗
