Its 9:45 here about an hour outside of Baltimore, DC and Annapolis and it is snowing wooohoooo. I think it may be a littly nippy this weekend.

I don't get it. And by it I mean this Mid-Atlantic weather. I've lived here for my entire life and still don't understand our weather patterns. It was 60 degrees last week and I was out in shorts and a t shirt, but right now its been snowing the past 3 days. Now it is a wet snow, and only sticks to cars and the grass, normally melting during the day, but its still coming down white. I wish it were either always snowing or always warm. Then again a nice 60-70 degree climate year round would rock.

Enough of my rambling, as for my advice on attire:
1) It's not yet warm enough up here to only wear shorts. If you wear pants it will never be uncomfortable.
2) Don't rule out the long sleeve shirts. It's a nice medium between short sleeve and sweatshirt.
3) A heavy winter coat isn't necessary, however a nice hooded sweatshirt comes in handy, especially with the wet climate during this time of year.
4) Wear layers. Tshirt with a sweatshirt over it will normally take care of you.

All in all, and correct me anyone if I'm wrong, a good attire for this weather is pants with a tshirt and hooded sweatshirt. It REALLY does vary from day to day up here.

Hope I didn't just ramble on foolishly.

I guess that seems resonble for most people. It really depends on the weather you are used to. I would say that many people coming south for the competition would gladly wear shorts this upcoming weekend.

So much for packing shorts

I think there are several people who will be wearing shorts. I would if I was going, but that doesn't say too much. Many people know me for wearing shorts year round, even as the temperature drops below 0. The Floridians would probably think I'm crazy.

Oh, wait, everyone else already thinks I'm crazy.

I'd be wearing whatever was clean . Shorts, pants, it's all the same for me. I've worn my bathing suit in the snow cause I didn't want to get my pants all wet. However the southerners will most likely find it to be freezing, relative to what they are used to, especially on the Chesapeake where there tends to be a cool breeze. Oh, and that nasty storm that's coming our way.
