Late-April Snow in the DMV??

 Yes, you read the title right, snow fell in late April this year for parts of the DMV. And, its not just western and northern Maryland. There were reports of snow around DC(Arlington) and Baltimore + DC Metro. Some reports of snow possibly even in Baltimore City! It happened the night of April 21(as the cold front pushed through) and throughout April 22. In MoCo, here, I was able to record snow as well. And I was able to see it fall too. Last year, I saw snow in May, but this is also pretty rare. On the same days, frost advisories and freeze warnings impacted the region. On April 21, Baltimore got close to breaking its low record of 32F. Although I couldn't find reports, radar showed snow showers hitting MoCo and surrounding areas multiple times, and that probably means that there was snow in MoCo apart from just me.

This was my video of snow falling. If you look closely, you can see a small part of snow falling. I can confirm this. It didn't melt the instant it reached the ground, and stayed for a couple seconds before eventually melting. Pretty crazy day! We usually dont get snow this deep into April. Winter should pretty much be over after this weekend for a lot of the eastern US. You might have noticed there aren't much blog posts coming out, and that's because there really isn't much going on in the DMV weather world right now. May and June will probably be more interesting because of severe weather, but we will have to wait and see. Until then, enjoy the nice weather, and I'll see you in the next blog post! Oh, and a winter recap is coming around May.
