I was coming back from Buffalo to Baltimore last night. I spent much of the
day on ADDS, checking weather. It was supposed to be good straight through.
Lots of green dots on the Java METAR display, and the TAFS were benign. Two
calls to FSS, one to the default 1800WXBRIEF, and one to the 866 number to
Leesburg, in part for weather and in part for ADIZ. When I got to the
airport, things were a little different. It looked hazy and overcast.


That's interesting. I didn't check DUATs weather yesterday, but live
just 20 miles south west of ELM and ELM is my home field. Both the
weather channel and Accuweather were calling for hot, hazy, and humid
with a chance of thunderstorms pretty much all day yesterday and today
(and for the 4-5 days prior as well). We in fact had storms both
yesterday and today. Neither day was good VFR weather between noon and
dark.
