Dulles had its wettest day in weeks.
Only a little rain fell in the District on Saturday, but over the past two weeks, a little has come to seem like a lot.
Even that quantity did not seem particularly large, but at Dulles, about 25 miles northwest of the District, it was, in a relative sense, substantial. Saturday was by far the wettest day there in more than three weeks. Thick clouds covered the sky from earliest morning until evening. In the day’s clouded dimness, it sometimes seemed as if the air was filled with tiny droplets, even when no rain was measured.But in the afternoon, streets and sidewalks glistened with a thin film of moisture, attesting to the actual descent of a fine spring rain.
At times in that period, it seemed almost justifiable to inquire of nature about the fate of April’s reputed showers — the showers that are celebrated in song as bringing the flowers that bloom in May.
