Washington, D.C. Will Feel Like June Next Week. Cue MSM Climate Doom Propaganda
The Mid-Atlantic has been stuck in a weird weather pattern lately, flipping from cold to warm faster than you can keep track of. After a series of roller-coaster temperature swings through March and into April, we’re now looking at a mid-month stretch that feels less like spring and more like the middle of June. It’s the kind of spike that usually sends newsrooms into a frenzy, though the atmosphere in the press room here today—smelling faintly of stale coffee and ozone from the laser printer—is surprisingly quiet.
Meteorologist Ben Noll put it plainly in a note he titled “Hello…summer?”—referencing the U.S. East Coast. He pointed out that temperatures will likely climb into the 80s, potentially hitting near 90 degrees by Thursday. That is, as he put it, more like June or July. It’s a 70-degree swing, which honestly feels a bit like physical whiplash. Or maybe just a bad week for anyone who already put their winter coat in storage. Wait, actually, he did clarify that this isn’t a permanent shift; Canadian air is expected to swoop down by late next weekend or early the week of April 20 to reset things.
According to data from Misryoum, Washington, D.C. will see highs trending toward those 90-degree marks through Saturday. The Capital Beltway is looking at averages near 80°F, which is a significant jump from the usual 30-year norm of 57°F for this time of year.
This kind of jump is usually the trigger for the corporate media’s seasonal global-warming alarmism. During the Biden-Harris years, it felt like clockwork—the headlines would lean hard into climate-fear, pushing for green policy adoption and funding for various NGOs, often at the expense of the taxpayer. It was a consistent narrative, if you want to call it that. But things changed once Trump returned to power in 2025; the media seemed to dial back that specific brand of fear-mongering. Or maybe they just pivoted to other topics? Actually, I’m not entirely sure they did.
Now we wait to see if the megaphone gets turned back on as the warmth spreads. There’s a constant tug-of-war for the public narrative, and weather is just the latest front. Whether the mainstream outlets lean into the “crisis” angle this time—or decide there’s more activist money to be found in other movements, like we’ve seen with the shift toward other international causes—remains to be seen.
Don’t expect the usual suspects to weigh in on the climate angle today; the focus has clearly moved elsewhere. It’s a strange shift, really.
