CAPE

This should be in the banter thread. I'll meet you there lol.

We don't typically get washouts in mid June. The pattern supports frontal action, which tends to be scattered in nature. As advertised there is some decent instability and PWAT moving northward on the western side of the Atlantic HP, so there is the potential for some locally heavy rains at times. The haves and have nots to be determined.

My lawn always dies and I would love for the moss to completely take over lol. Its only a small area where I try to keep grass- the rest is mossed over. Probably going to plant a mix of clover, wildflowers, with maybe some grass in that area this Fall. White clover pretty much takes over anyway once the grass burns to hell, plus it might choke out the wild violet that has spread like crazy the last few years. Nearly unkillable- you can try to rip the roots out but no way to get them all and it continues to spread quickly.

Nothing here over the last couple days. Wasn't really expecting anything based on the the CAMs depiction over multiple runs.

0.31" with the weakest part of that line (as usual) and 0.46" since yesterday afternoon.

Yeah not all HECS are top 10- the Jan 2016 storm wasn't here, and March of 93 wasn't even top 20. The early Jan storm was probably top 15 here if I had the energy to do a ranking. The lowlands have been on a pretty good roll with significant Jan snowstorms in recent winters.

Time flies. Doesn't seem that long ago, and just a couple weeks until the solstice- then days get shorter as we head back towards winter.

What made it unique was the cold that followed, and having snow otg for weeks.

Not sure about top 10, but a great storm for our current times. Probably top 20.

Picked up 0.15" from the showers that spun in from the southeast. I don't think there was anything in the forecast for here today.

They might go 9-8 instead of 8-9. They need a QB and next years draft class is promising. They needed to tank this year, but Tomlin would never allow that. So they will probably be just good enough to not get one of the better QB prospects lol. Love to see it as a Ravens fan.

How bout dem Os! Back to back for another one run win. Got some mojo going now.

Sitting in the AC, and I am a year round high gravity stout drinker. Or high gravity anything lol. The 120 min IPAs are more 'summery', and are great, but twice the price though- so once in awhile.

Source: Ravens give WR Rashod Bateman 3-year, $36.75M extension https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45456848/source-ravens-give-wr-rashod-bateman-3-year-3675m-extension I like it.. mostly. Good deal IF he stays healthy, and produces like he did last year(or better). Probably a bargain then.

KBS Double Oaked Bourbon Barrel aged Stout for HH. Never had this variant. Pretty good stuff.

That's not the 3km NAM, although at hour 60(end of its run) it does suggest a glancing blow in the hours just beyond. All other guidance keeps it pretty far to the south.

Os finally found a team they can beat without even looking very impressive. The historically bad Whitesox. Going for the sweep tomorrow!

GFS fantasyland is almost always entertaining, and usually wrong, regardless of the season.

Why do y'all bother to engage this anti-science MAGAt? Futile. These people are unfixable. Ignore and move on.

I bet. My nephew had one square on his asshole when he was about that age lol. These were definitely seeds. I knew something was there because of the itch. Took a magnifying glass to to confirm.

For those who have been jonesing for some summertime heat, it's on the way this week. Favorable upper level ridge position with a surface High in the western Atlantic will bring a taste. Hopefully it doesnt last too long.

Fucking ticks. In all the years I have lived here I never had one actually attach- they have always been big enough that I felt them crawling and got em before they bit. Now twice in 3 weeks I have pulled tiny ones(probably larvae) off my scrotum. Not been in the deep woods, just outside in the yard doing typical garden stuff. My concern was always eradicating mosquito larvae. Never worried much about ticks. Might have to do something this year.

Some pretty good thunder and wind as this line in rolling in. Doesnt look like much rain on radar but maybe a quick downpour.

Could add a little today with scattered showers/storms in the forecast.

5.2" for the month per my station. That's a little more than average for May.
