Best alternatives to Capital Weather Gang

[Anonymous]

Our WaPo subscription is coming to an end soon, and we are not renewing. I do really like the CWG, though, and am wondering what the best sources of local weather are in this region (we live in northern Virginia).

I just read CWG on Twitter. Never have had a subscription to the Post (digitally, in modern times.)

So you’re supporting Musk over Bezos, or actually over the journalists left at Post who are still doing some pretty important reporting on the horror show going on in DC. Not to mention great weather coverage.

DP but those great journalists need to go elsewhere. Bezos is making a mockery of the paper and it would be ridiculous to keep funding that.

I unsubscribed a while back and I also miss cwg but I read their surface level posts on Facebook and make do with it

Where should they go? Journalism is not exactly a growth industry these days. It's very unfortunate what Bezos has done with the editorial pages at the Post, but the news reporters are still doing good, important work. If he starts interfering with the news reporting, then I'll cancel my subscription. Until then, I'll just cancel Amazon.

I just want to know the weather.

I hate all those people, but there are other ways to show it.
