@capitalweather Nice little sunrise this morning at National Airport #nofilter

@RaminNasibov There was a C64 game called Great American Road Race where you did a spy hunter like race across the US, and I've never seen it again on an emulator, but it was a great game.

There goes the last reason I subscribed to WaPo...for 28 years on my own, plus 10 more reading it as a kid

Capital Weather Gang, the weather blog that has been a part of the Washington Post for almost 20 years, is becoming an independent site and rebranding as Capital Weather.

Per a note to WaPo staff today, the site will still contribute to WaPo during major weather events.

Signs on the station boards saying the problem has been resolved yet taking 30 minutes to go two stations, fancy new MetroPulse App won't even load. It's like we're back to the bad old days of EREL here.

@Metrorailinfo @wmata 2 trains have gone out of service at Tacoma. What is wrong with you morons. Single tracking? 1 train has gone through in 40 minutes

That face that @BizNasty2point0 makes when he knows we're not going to OT this game.... @NHL_On_TNT

[SilverSpringJoe @SilverSpringJoe]

@ForChock Lovely cane weather today!

[SilverSpringJoe @SilverSpringJoe]

@wyshynski Kyle Rehman and Garrett Rank should not do another game this season. This is atrocious. Neutral Metro Division fan here.

The Hilton donated the ~2600 dinners that went unserved at WHCD. They freeze dried the steak and lobster for longer shelf life before giving them to 2 shelters for abused women and children. HUGE thank you to the staff that worked through the night under terrible circumstances.

@capitalweather Classic (but brief) summer thunderstorm going here in Four Corners/Silver Spring, surprising amount of wind with it, not too much lightning.

[SilverSpringJoe @SilverSpringJoe]

Nice little rainbow south of the Wheaton Metro! @capitalweather @wwWheaton

[SilverSpringJoe @SilverSpringJoe]

@JebBrooks @milesintransit1 YOU ARE BOTH IN MY TOWN AND I MISSED THIS 😭😭😭😭😭

[SilverSpringJoe @SilverSpringJoe]

@Metrorailinfo is single tracking on the Red Line, so I should jump off and switch to the green to get to work on time, but this train operator (car 3066 if the powers that be are watching) has such a great Don Cornelius voice that I may just stay on...

[SilverSpringJoe @SilverSpringJoe]

@capitalweather The weather in DC will *always* revert to the worst possible forecast - the grayest gray, the least warm, the most humid, the least snow, etc. Like Lucy with the football.

@milesintransit1 I was literally in Tokyo and Osaka last week thinking... These systems need the @milesintransit1 treatment!

[VDOT Northern VA @VaDOTNOVA]

The whole team is ready.

[SilverSpringJoe @SilverSpringJoe]

@coveredmranch NO THEY WON'T! the fact that you think this must mean you're a terrible person and clearly wrong. 😂😂😂

[SilverSpringJoe @SilverSpringJoe]

@wmata @Metrorailinfo Your train operator, train 6109 on the Yellow Line to Huntington at 700pm, is an absolute treasure. Please pass along my thanks to him for his uplifting announcements!

[SilverSpringJoe @SilverSpringJoe]

@coveredmranch Just rub it in to all of us north of I-20 in January!
Today was a first here... Snow flurries when it was 50 degrees out. My easy run will be tomorrow!

[SilverSpringJoe @SilverSpringJoe]

@capitalweather @JustinWeather Snow flurries... And 50 degrees! Four Corners, Silver Spring
