I just want rain. Just some wet weather. I don't need anything else. First storm dropped a whopping T here. Sigh. -

Snooze fest this evening. Was hoping for more action. Just some showers, and nothing too heavy here. Northern LV seems to have gotten some heavier showers. . -
Wow imagine if my April torch prediction from January actually pans out.

From a 50,000 foot view though, are they *all* wrong? There absolutely are going to be some instrumentation issues, siting issues, etc… but looking at the collective from afar, are they all wrong? Are mesonets and other climate recording sites that are deemed ok, showing conflicting data? What about sensors running too cold? Plenty of those too, but the focus here seems to be the warm ones… or is it just a general statement because of MSM latching onto the warm ones?

I didn’t think your area could even reach 90 on March 22. There are no guardrails anymore lol

AC definitely on. Not opening the windows. High of 90 at 4:43pm.

Went out to Annapolis today and it was amazing. 15 deg cooler along the water. Hancock low of 35 and High of 90 is crazy. We never get a diurnal of 55 degrees. I'm gonna have to take a look back and see when that last happened in the state.

So what would this mean asked google Gemini not really taking verbatim as to what they said with the photo I sent it .

Probably a good idea

Yep. Leaf out beginning in earnest up here on the high ridges of Silver Spring, for the earlier species. Like my black cherry. Redbuds are primed to pop. Cherries ready to go. Maples red and juicy.

Seems to be garden variety stuff here, but was kind of expected. Supposedly there were 10 strikes near my station, but I've not heard one rumble of thunder. -
Don your view that what is happening now has never occurred before as always remains your blind spot!

Occasional Thoughts on Climate Change
donsutherland1 replied to donsutherland1's topic in Climate Change
It does. But it's worth noting that the Dust Bowl was not a solely natural pattern-driven or cyclical event. Human factors helped create the conditions that made the Dust Bowl possible. The underlying drought was real and it was likely sparked by internal variability. However, poor land management made it far worse than it would otherwise have been. Extensive plowing of native grasslands and exposed topsoil left the land highly vulnerable to wind erosion once rainfall diminished turning a dry period into a catastrophe. Overall, the Dust Bowl is a powerful analog for a climate-change-driven aridification scenario because it shows how prolonged drought, extreme heat, and depleted soil moisture can combine into a self-reinforcing phenomenon. One is already witnessing drought-heat feedback in the Southwest, which is likely in the early stages of aridification, as forecast on the climate models. -
I was joking too btw… except the 30,000 days message was legit. Definitely not using a location-based screen name anymore though.

I finally got myself in good position and everything working. And everybody was gone. I'm under an overhang down the down the road at the moment I'll probably fire back up in case I catch any hail. -
