WEST ROCKVILLE MARYLAND WEATHER UPDATE – THURSDAY NOVEMBER 11, 2021
My wrist discomfort keeps getting a bit better each day but I still have weakness with certain muscle movements/actions that is troubling at times. Wearing the wrist
brace overnight. I still need to make tonight’s post a bit shorter as I have been the past few days to somewhat reduce my typing efforts.
Thursday was partly to mostly cloudy with clouds increasing in the late afternoon and evening ahead of Friday’s rain with continued moderate temperatures. I reached
into the mid 60s for today’s high once again with dew points ranging from the low 40s early to the upper 50s later in the day. We peaked with our maximum temperature
(66.9) of the day in the early afternoon while the low temperature was only in the upper 40s. It was reached a few hours before sunrise then rose slowly the rest of
the night with the increase in southerly component winds.
The peak wind gust for the day (22 MPH) was still relatively light once again, “peaking” in the early afternoon, veering around to a SW direction from yesterday. Barometric pressures were highest in the early morning while the lowest was reached in the late evening just before midnight.
Friday should be cloudy with AM showers and still mild early with highs in the low 60s and lows in the upper 30s late. Saturday through Tuesday should be partly cloudy
and quite cool with high in the upper 40s to low 50s and lows down around freezing to the upper 20s and dry.
