Today, a few friends and I were lucky enough to see the Washington Spirit win in penalties in front of a sold-out, post-season crowd at Audi Field! Perfect soccer weather. One of my favorite days in a long time! ⚽️🙌🏻

My dear friend got married this weekend! The rehearsal was rainy and chilly, but the wedding was sunny and dry. Gorgeous weather! I'm so grateful to have met this group of women when I moved to DC! Very special. 🥰

The NAM-Nest and the HiResW ARW2 show the possibility of a late night/early morning MCS moving south across NY. No strong agreement from other CAMs at the moment, but certainly something to watch out for. #NYwx

The new chair and pastoral artwork really tie the room together! The sunshine (after many days of rain) doesn't hurt either! 🛏☀️
