2019 Mid Atlantic Lawn, Garden, Pool, etc. Thread
CAPE replied to Eskimo Joe's topic in Mid Atlantic
Just a perfect day for doing any outdoor project, minus a bit of wind. Just spent a couple hours cutting back the undergrowth along the edge of the woods out back. Amazing how much it opened things up. I now have a partial view through the trees of the farm behind my property, which I enjoy in the winter months when the foliage is gone. -
Great times my friend. The Hotel Rehoboth was kind enough to feed the 6 of us staying there 3 meals lol. I didn't really plan on not being able to go out and get something. Place was shut down.
-
Yeah that's the last update, and what I was referring to in my post above. We just cant know. 60% is essentially a flip of the coin. If it leans one way or the other, my wag is cold neutral.
-
Well there certainly was next to nothing this past winter for the metros points east, and the misses weren't close. That is the definition of a pure crap winter- pretty much skunked. A ratter.
-
The recent 2 Nina winters were better, and one was much better, with slightly above avg snowfall around here. The bomb cyclone was epic.
-
CPC/NCEP is currently forecasting ENSO neutral conditions through summer, and favors it to persist through Fall. Fwiw.

I wanna live in a place where the only months it really can't snow are June-August, and 90 degrees is rare. Already love Canaan and the Davis-Thomas area. I can actually retire from my teaching job this year, with a nice pension. Just need some part time work.

Forecast high for here next Friday is 78. Getting there.
-
I'm guessing the Carroll county folks were tracking it for some splatty wet flakes on the tail end, which is usually all that ever happens with these set ups in the heart of winter lol. When I lived up there, the only notable May "winterish" event I recall was a graupel shower with an unseasonably strong cold front.
-
It was a wave running along a cold front and it tracked right over us. The coastal popped and strengthened too far NE. In that scenario there is no banding in this area, and the cold comes in behind the frontal precip every time. Sure if some earlier runs of the GFS were correct and the front/wave and coastal low were further SE, it may have been different. But you knew that wasn't going to happen. Not in May.
-
Another 'wind' day. Second only to heat around here. 50 degrees and May sun would feel really nice without the 35 mph gusts.
-
Nah. Its cold chasing rain, as usual.
-
35 here.

He will improve with some practice.

Probably how it will go. I was not overly impressed with his play tbh, and think there are younger guys who could step up and do the job for less money. But it wont matter if they have to take a hit to get rid of him.

Not much of a whiskey/bourbon person, but this Jefferson's small batch is smooth and pleasantly sweet. Pretty good stuff. On par with Knob Creek and Woodford Reserve. All subjective ofc. Knob Creek small batch is normally my go to for bourbon.
-
I am not much on crust, so thats how I would cut it lol. My mom makes an awesome punkin' pie with rum and crushed pecans for a crust.
-
ET one and done with the Ravens? Maybe.
-
I had a Goose Island IPA, now a glass(or 2) of red wine. I think I will end up with a Jefferson's small batch on the rocks at some point.
-
Wind picked up suddenly with this shower rolling through. Temp dropping quickly- from 65 to now 58.
-
Our climo ensures it lol.
-
They really are bomb. I was shocked the first time I tried them. A tad pricey, but worth it if you don't want to make them yourself.
-
Hard to beat these. Even my mom, who is a great cook, uses them when she doesn't have the time. Y'all can go ahead and drag me now.

Looks like there are still some pretty significant differences among the guidance on rainfall amounts/specific location for the region. Generally looks like the heaviest will be in the northern third, but some Mesos have another max on the coastal plain.
