We had delightfully warm weather over the weekend, temps in the high
70's for the most part, water temps in the mid 60's...just one of mother
nature's last teasers of the year before winter moves in.

Up there it seemed we always had warm weather for halloween.
South and east of DC was not really that cold most of the time anyway
although you might get a swat of real winter now and then. (in the
midwest sort of way). As soon as you get up into Montgomery County you
start seeing Pennsylvania weather. I was always surprised when I left
sleet in freezing rain in PG and found 2-3"
of snow in Gaithersburg.

The Bay is a winter "moderator" of sorts for those of us who live pretty
close to it. I remember one winter some years ago when someone told me
that Deale had "iced over," and so I drove up for a look-see. Well, the
inland ends of the creeks indeed were iced over, but not with ice thick
enough to walk upon.
