    February 11 1983 Dale City got to enjoy 17 inches of fresh snow! I remember jebwalking in it to my immense delight!
  3. Today

    Just stepped outside to take the trash out before bed and it smells like straight up roasting plastic. I've never experienced something like this. Throat started scratching up in a few minutes. Wtf

    Just for shits and giggles: How strong can El Nino get? Can it reach 7 degrees Celsius above the ENSO benchmark, or whatever it is called? I want a 15 degree Celsius Brobdingnagian Nino!!!!!! Why? Because huge amounts of rain is so much fun! I am a rain weenie, lol! For the record: We ended up with 5.9 inches in this storm cycle, I call the Mid July 2026 Storm Cycle. I might start naming the cycles, because we will have so many of them in this Uber Nino! We are now up to 34.3 inches of rain on the year! Normal FOR THE ENTIRE YEAR is 30.0.
  6. high risk
    Early thought is that storms will fire Saturday afternoon along the lee trough in an environment with good shear and at least moderate instability. (The NAM is likely too moist in the low levels, so toss its extreme instability). Severe will definitely be a concern, and the high PW environment may support locally intense rainfall, but the fast storm movement should prevent major flooding concerns. The potential round 2 is highly dependent upon timing. Right now, consensus seems to favor arrival very late in the evening, which leads to significant weakening (and possibly falling completely apart) before arrival. The shear will be increasing further after dark, so severe would be possible, but the timing really needs to speed up to make that happen.
  7. high risk
    I was in NYC. Really, really unpleasant, although the smoke nicely kept the temperatures down.

    87F in Washington DC at 1am. Gotta imagine the smoke is playing a part in that?

    DCA is 86F at 1am - another 80+ low there (3 so far this year) - 98/81.
  10. pazzo83
    IAD is 85F at the 1am ob - officially 96/81 on the day. First 80+ low

    The UKMET (0Z), after having dropped this from TCG, brought back TCG. Also, unlike the 2 Wednesday runs that had it form on Sun in NE Gulf followed by a NE move across FL, this run delays development til Tue and then moves it slowly WSW: NEW TROPICAL CYCLONE FORECAST TO DEVELOP AFTER 120 HOURS FORECAST POSITION AT T+120 : 28.8N 86.2W LEAD CENTRAL MAXIMUM WIND VERIFYING TIME TIME POSITION PRESSURE (MB) SPEED (KNOTS) -------------- ---- -------- ------------- ------------- 0000UTC 22.07.2026 120 28.8N 86.2W 1008 32 1200UTC 22.07.2026 132 28.8N 86.6W 1008 33 0000UTC 23.07.2026 144 28.5N 87.5W 1005 39 1200UTC 23.07.2026 156 28.5N 88.6W 1003 40 0000UTC 24.07.2026 168 27.9N 89.5W 995 48
  12. SnowenOutThere
    It’s nasty out there. Smell is worse than I remembered from a couple years ago. AQI is around 150 so we still aren’t in the worst of it.
  13. pazzo83
    the midnight 5min ob at DCA is 90 with 3mi visibility. IAD is 87 with 2.5mi

    Took our trash out about an hour ago. Our driveway is very long so I use a helmet flashlight to light the way. Could see the smoke and other suspended particulates drifting in the air. Looked like the mist of a dense fog, but with smell.

    Smoke may insulate our overnight lows. It's 12:15 am and the Baltimore City mesonet site is at 84°.
  16. Eskimo Joe
    Was up in Philly today. It was far worse than Baltimore, everything had a chlorine-esque odor. There was fine particulate in a lot of surfaces.
  17. Santa Claus
    we got the marlboro man posting here
  18. JakkelWx
    240 at a couple sensors now. very strong smell. visibility is trashed

    Mid July now, we've turned the corner toward Fall. Days shorter, Mets suck, Giants football have zero hope at a Superbowl. Things are on schedule. Make sure to double wax the Iroc before the first freeze....that's very important and vital. 71F 11:50pm
  20. 87storms
    It’s legit rn
  21. 87storms
    I reluctantly went biking earlier for the first time in 3 weeks and actually didn’t find it too bad. But I just stepped outside and can absolutely smell it. It’s like a chlorine/smoke cross. This continent needs rain.

    i was just going to repost that. Classic
  24. wncsnow
    95 here today
  25. michsnowfreak
    I literally did not step foot outside today because I know it would give me a headache.
  26. pazzo83
    Smoke now at DCA - 90F. You can definitely smell it.
  27. JakkelWx
    AQI here up from 100 to 160 in the past 45 mins
