A noisy thunderstorm woke me up around 2am. Ofc it passed just to the south. Picked up .08" in a very brief downpour.

The pitching is just plain bad, and it puts pressure on the offense. This is a lost season realistically, but maybe the second half can provide some optimism for next year if Bradish and Wells can get back and be productive.

They are top 4. Very tough schedule but on paper probably the most talented team. If they stay healthy this might be their year. Just need to execute in the playoffs when its all on the line. They are super motivated.

Eflin lol. Put him on IR. Throwing batting practice.

Looks like the negative momentum is back. Not sure they have another comeback in em.

The Orioles have now given up 20+ runs in a game and scored 20+ runs in a game in a single season. Down 6-0 they win 22-8.

Very unusual late June day. Overcast and cool with a bit of drizzle, and not a hint of sun breaking through the clouds. The backdoor front is well SW into central to southeast VA and stationary, so we are solidly in a marine airmass with a NE flow.

Easton area got crushed-- 1.44" in a little under an hour. This is the from the mesonet just to the east of town at the Water treatment facility.

I'm in plant watering mode now. Grass I don't care about. It craps out regardless.

It's football season.. Training camp starts in a little over 2 weeks. Ravens first preseason game in 5 weeks.

Picked up a few hundredths last night with yet another debacle of being betwixt and between. Looked at the Ridgely Mesonet and three quarters of an inch fell there in 20 mins starting at 10 pm. Total for the day here 0.27"

Down to 79 here after a high of 94. It was 83 when the rain started.

Its headed across the Bay now. That's what kicked off the showers here. They have since disintegrated. Basically pulse type showers with weak shear. I did manage to pick up 0.20". Hopefully more to come over the next couple days.

That boundary that moved inland from the Ocean is impressive on radar. Popping some storms and temp dropped 10 degrees. Somehow I am in between 2 blobs of red lol. SOS. Maybe they will congeal.

Orioles are.. NOT GOOD Forget wildcard dreams. They need to be sellers- Sugano, Morton, Mullins are desirable additions to actual contenders.

That's cheap but probably because its the Utopias barrel aged version which is old stock. To me that one is decent, but imparts too much of the Utopias notes(like sherry) and detracts from fundamentally what the 120 is. The new limited release version is excellent imo if you can find that one- might be the best yet as they dry hopped it for the first time. Its gonna be 38-40 bucks for a 4 pack.

Damn. A few hundredths under 2 inches for the month here. Soil is parched.

Managed to hit 97 briefly earlier, otherwise it would have been another boring high of 96 lol. Dewpoints a bit lower today.

77 at 7am

Yeah it would have to be something highly anomalous. Probably a combination- record high h5 heights, very dry conditions, good mixing via westerly winds. This area is the antitheses of UHI. 'Corn sweat' can contribute to somewhat higher DPs in mid to late summer, but that also would tend to keep temps a bit lower. I don't think I have seen a temperature higher than 98 on my weather station, and that is pretty rare. Nice to have the mesonet stations just to my SW and NE to validate my obs.

High 96 94 currently. DP 71. Could be worse. Despite forecast highs of 98-100 over the years, as long as I have lived here taking the under is 100% win.

Looks like 96 will probably be the high here again.

High of 96. Currently 94, DP 73. Its an oven.
