CAPE

A proper British Sunday roast dinner at noon with a pint of Guinness, and a photo from Yorkshire Dales. I'll post a few more later.

It's still ongoing. Yesterday was "hot" here. Around 80. Heading to Yorkshire Dales tomorrow, but the weather looks more showery.

Without even looking I'm sure snowmannumbs has parroted that tweet in the main thread to support his 'opinion'.

Enjoy it while it lasts. Can't keep winning if the young talented players smartly drafted and developed in the minors end up Yankees and Dodgers in a few years. They won't pay. Worst ownership in sports now that Snyder was finally booted.

I'll be monitoring my security cam from here beginning around midnight. Hoping not to see tree debris flying all over the place.

It's whatever. He adds nothing of substance and has a clear agenda. Not sure why a member who is deemed a useless turd in another sub is able to be a nuisance here though.

The daily post limited member from another sub forum is still pissed that no one cares what he thinks lol.

who cares about a daily post limited member's opinion? anyone?

53 currently. Nice sunset after a damp day. Just took a long walk and back at dusk, around 930. Probably won't experience anything like this at home until maybe early Nov.

CPC/NCEP continues to favor a moderate to strong event. Plenty of opinions in the twittersphere and elsewhere. Some are hyperbolic and baseless, driven by an agenda.

With all the travel yesterday, I didn't really have a chance keep on top of the trade deadline moves. Nice pick up for the Os, but that's it? I kind of agree with this take. The Baltimore Orioles and Cincinnati Reds are cowards It’s all right there for two division leaders far too worried about tomorrow https://deadspin.com/mlb-trade-deadline-orioles-reds-verlander-no-hitter-1850699165

62 and mostly cloudy at 5pm over here in the greater Manchester area. Uncharacteristically chilly/wet July even for here, continuing into early August.

62 for the low

Feb would be the coldest month, also on the dry side verbatim. Maybe snow on the NC coast, if such a thing is still possible.

Esp Feb. Damn.

JFM h5 are drool worthy on the new edition.

Awesome. Have a great time! I'm jelly of that beer you are drinking there.

Having a glass of wine and getting things sorted for blast off tomorrow. HH will be in the airport/continue on the plane with a 630 departure. Then 2 weeks of drinking in English pubs and local breweries. Love the vibe over there.

Unless something pops today, looks like my monthly total will be 9.78". The grass to burned thatch ratio is somewhat better than usual.

Yep, just saw that. He would have been a nice addition. I hope the Os don't go bargain basement. They have the prospects to make a significant addition or 2 to put them in a good position for a postseason run.

With the demotion of Tyler Wells to double-A to get rest/controlled work, it seems the Os intend to pick up a veteran starter before the deadline. Wells seemingly hit a bit of a wall and the same might happen with the other young starters. Reports are linking the Orioles to Mike Lorenzen. Probably a decent pickup of they can pull it off, but he is sort of having a career year and the prior 8 seasons pitched 100 innings or less. Not ideal given the state of the current rotation. The Cardinals are selling and Montgomery would be a better fit. More durable, innings eater, and having a good season.

Picked up 0.33" with a localized heavy downpour around 430 am. There was a 20% pop. My yard can't miss lately lol.

9.45" for the month. Outside chance of exceeding 10 for the month with the disturbance moving through tomorrow. Pretty scattered chances though, and probably light overall. Sunny and 81/60 currently. Hard to do better this time of year.

Feels awesome out. Got the Jeep washed. Plenty to do outside the next 2 days before I leave for jolly old England. Weather here looks as good as it gets for a while, but I am sure I will return to stifling heat lol. Over there, highs in the mid 60s and lows in low to mid 50s, with shower chances each day through next weekend.
