It has been dry here, and despite the gray clouds that covered most of the sky for most of the day, it remained dry Friday into the night.
Although our landscape may not yet appear visibly parched, Friday offered many hours of waterless warmth. But we did not add to our meager 0.29 inches of April rain.
In the grayness, rain might have often seemed imminent. Clouds shifted this way and that for hours at various heights and levels, sometimes even permitting a glimpse of sun. But, if anything, Friday seemed a gray day, on which rain distinguished itself by not falling. Officially, as late as 9 p.m. Washington lacked so much as a trace of precipitation.The basic atmospheric boycott of moisture on Friday seemed a continuation of the conditions that have placed the Washington area on the official map of places in the United States experiencing drought conditions.
But the books closed on Wednesday, as they appeared to be closing Friday, without recording a trace of rain. It seemed enough, perhaps, to make readers of Geoffrey Chaucer and his description of showery April in the Canterbury Tales, produce their own shower of tears.
