Getting dark here in Lewes. Radar showing a couple of cells that will be coming through.

Not a good look, the GFS thankfully isn't as bad.

low 90s at DCA again.

I want my precip in summer.

as the nino gets stronger there's less discussion about it. the backyard snow people are in for such a bad time

You get your revenge 9 out of 10 winters.

Downside up here—short summers. It’s 58.8° here at WXW2. It feels like October.

We’re going to OCMD tomorrow evening. Could be a little chilly for a beach weekend lol

We have landfall

Not enough people are talking about the legendary stretch of weather coming up from tomorrow till Saturday. Highs barely past 80 degrees and dewpoints in the low to mid 50s in MID JULY. It’ll be the first look ahead to fall weather wise!

In all seriousness, I found a YouTube video of old Chuck from 5 months ago. I was delighted to know that it seems like he was doing pretty good.I've talked about Chuck and made up stories about him a few times over the years, in here. Definitely, an integral part of my childhood and teen years, and one of the reasons that I like weather so much along with Dr Greg Forbes and the old weather channel crew. Chuck talks about some of his favorite snow memories in this video.

Lol I Miss old Chuck Rhoads to, he's definitely the king of local weather, but i'm talking about Charles Doogley. He did our school weather senior year and earned the nickname Chuck Choads due to an instident involving a farmers stolen goat and a jar of extra chunky jiff. The Great part actually has nothing to do with his weather forecasting abilities and everything to do with a jar of peanut butter.

Unfortunately it was a photo capture only, camera wasn't set for video out of the box (it's since been set to video)...

Saw my first cicada bee of the season. Summer keeps rolling along. 86F/DP 67F

I was just shy of 3.

71/48 winds gusting to 20. Brilliant day. Might the best of the summer.

if you dont mind me asking what camera do you use? I was planning to get the reolink Duo 3 so I can set up my own time lapse.

Yeah, I have posted several times on this. Recent studies have found the cold blob has been more a result of stronger winds than related to the AMOC. But it’s possible the +NAO could be a result of other circulation changes from the warming that the climate models haven’t become advanced enough to detect.

It was the first pitch of the at bat. It made the count 1 ball, 1 strike.

Flash Flood Watch issued beginning at 8 this evening until Thursday evening.

Ditto for Sparta. Looks great. I have a shiptload of them up here. We got five in the last week just from being out on the deck. I've found them crawling across the deck rails and even the deck chairs, and one up the wall of our kitchen! We don't even butt up to the woods, so they must be from the copious amounts of deer wandering through the yard. I just sprayed the hell out of the deck, deck planters, and surrounding lawn with pet safe spray so I'm hoping that does the trick. Ticks in general are really getting out of control and tick borne illness, some serious, continue to rise.

This better not be an omen for next winter.
