It's been much more windy and cloudy here in DC than usual. It's like pa or CT cloudy here and I'm. Not liking it at all. Very depressing and harder to talk outside everyday.

I’m recalling the old saying ‘March comes in the a lion and out like a lamb’. But with an exclamation point due to climate change

It's always been windy at this time, and climate change is making weather more intense it seems.

I feel like this now our typical March weather. Windy and generally colder than February.

Welcome to the DC area?
It's usually like this, we are pretty close to the coast.

OP, are you new here? Winter is usually windy in DC. It's just been a very mild winter so far, but the La Nina has ended.

DC/NOVA/MD is now chicago? What is up with the wind here any meteorologists lurking around? I've notice there have been tons of windy days, this week or two alone will have 5-6 days that had gale force winds. Why? I need more than "global warming." What exactly is happening with the winds here?
