Official today: Capital Weather is independent once again.
Twenty-two years after launching Capital Weather as an independent weather website for the DC area — and 18 years after first partnering with The Washington Post and becoming the Capital Weather Gang — we are independent again.
Today, we’re officially launching a new chapter at capitalweather.com and on our new mobile app. We are committed to making our core forecasts and updates free and accessible to everyone. Your support will make this possible.
Here is what we’ve built and how you can support us.
What we’ve built:
☀️ Around-the-clock forecasts and live updates
📧 Expanded newsletters
📱 A new Capital Weather app
🌦️ Interactive weather and climate tools
💬 A stronger community experience
🎙️ We will continue to provide forecasts on WAMU 88.5
How you can boost and sustain our independent launch:
• Support our work at capitalweather.com/support-u…
• Download the Capital Weather app on iOS or Android
• Make Capital Weather your everyday weather source
• Share this post with friends and family across the DMV
Some of you have already joined our community and we could not be more grateful.
Since pioneering digital local weather coverage in 2004, we’ve believed weather is something we all experience together. Your questions, storm reports, photos, and conversations have helped shape Capital Weather into one of the nation’s leading regional weather communities.
Our mission remains the same as always: to be the most trusted everyday source for DC-area weather forecasts, breaking updates, and in-depth weather and climate news.
From sunny days to stormy days — and from Snowmageddon (2010) to Snowcrete (2026) — it’s been an incredible ride.
Thank you for being part of this community. We’re incredibly excited for what’s ahead.

I think it's going underappreciated how the two-hour barrier was broken:
-- by two men at once;
-- by a Kenyan and an Ethiopian;
-- as a result of racing;
-- on a legacy, non-Chicago/Berlin course; &
-- faster than Kipchoge's trial time.
So many narratives shattered at once.

This was so damn filthy. The kind of game-winning, championship-winning goal you dream about as a kid. What a move

I know Mr. Rogers’ “look for the helpers” mantra is cliché but we need to look for and amplify those who are turning down the temperature and calling for peace. Sen. Senators does a great job at that here; as well as Utah Gov. Cox earlier today. Thankful for these voices
The murder of Charlie Kirk is part of a disturbing rise in political violence that threatens to hollow out our public life.
A free society relies on the premise that people can speak out without fear or humiliation.
No more political violence.

Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. Thank you @POTUS, Congress, and the American people.
Ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that.
Made my kids watch the first inning of the Mets spring training game and after Soto homered my 5 year old asks “why is everyone so excited if this is just practice?” 😂😂 #LGM

Mets top offseason acquisition: Soto
Yankees top offseason acquisition: Beards
Statement from Yankees Managing General Partner Hal Steinbrenner on the alteration of Yankees facial hair policy:
ALT Statement from Yankees Managing General Partner Hal Steinbrenner RE: Alteration of Yankees facial hair policy In recent weeks I have spoken to a large number of former and current Yankees - spanning several eras - to elicit their perspectives on our longstanding facial hair and grooming policy, and I appreciate their earnest and varied feedback. These most recent conversations are an extension of ongoing internal dialogue that dates back several years. Ultimately the final decision rests with me, and after great consideration, we will be amending our expectations to allow our players and uniformed personnel to have well-groomed beards moving forward. It is the appropriate time to move beyond the familiar comfort of our former policy.

NHL’s 4 Nations Face-Off has convinced me that MLB needs to reconstruct its all-star break to include the World Baseball Classic during WBC tournament years @Shawn_Spradling #4Nations #WBC
I’m a little heartbroken because when I told my 5 year old we had signed Soto, she said “Yay!!! Is he going to be best friends with Pete Alonso??” and I didn’t and still don’t have the heart to explain to her that baseball is a business and Alonso probably won’t be back… #LGM
nypost.com/2025/01/16/sports… Details on Mets offer to try to keep Alonso in what looks like now will be a divorce from the slugger.
