My rain gauge broke and their hasn't been enough interesting weather to motivate me to order a new one. It looks pretty wet here this morning. I heard it pouring around 10 last evening.
Just patterns. From 2020 to 23 it was a swamp around here. It even killed off lots of trees due to excessive rainfall and wet soil. From 2023 until now it's been the opposite. Guess what's coming next? Lol
I saw wild things in La Plata. I talked to the father of some poor teenage girl that worked at the Taco Bell that got obliterated. She was standing next to him in shock still. He brought her back there so she could understand what happened. Her friend that worked there was still missing if I remember correctly. I have no idea how she survived unhurt. The only thing left was the stools that were bolted to the foundation. The tornado ripped the blacktop off 301 where it crossed. It was an EF5. I'll fight anyone that says different lol
I'm surprised to see this intensity and this widespread of a thunderstorm event. There's lots of lightning crashing all around here in the lowlands. Bring on the rain. We need it.
I feel for the orchards. Year #4 without a crop of peaches for northern MD. Apples also probably got cooked to. Having no local fruit sucks bad. I use to enjoy picking my own peaches from Lerry Land farms.
Nice! Take a little ride up 81 and check out the snow towns. Pulaski is a beautiful little town. Oswego is another cool little snow town on the lake. Or head up the Tug Hill to Highmarket. That's big snow country up there.
It was a good rain here as well. It rained really hard when that line came through. Heaviest precip I've seen since being under those extreme LES band on the Tug back in January.
Another mid summer day. I bet DC easily breezes by 90 degrees today. We're the Tug Hill of heat. We get heat like they get snow. Super easy and always busting high.
I've seen this forecast before. 85 today or fog and 45. Normally I'd lean towards heat wining because that’s our superpower. The only thing that can beat heat in early April is the ne wedge. Hoodie weather with drizzle it is. Fine by me.
Yeah. March sucks. Worst month in the area. It's way worse up in the snowbelt. They'll be 55 one day followed by teens and blizzard conditions. Just like here but more intense. Well.. maybe not. We do go from 85 to snow the next day lol
I agree. What happened to having spring. We haven't had spring in years. It just goes from 40 and drizzle to 85 and humid. 55 and sunny would be interesting. Sweatshirt weather doesn't exist here. Just coats to shorts.
Thanks buddy! Can't wait for that first Nov ripper on the Upper Tug. I agree. My grade is strictly for MBY. The chases event were also an A. Pulaski, Locona, and Harrington Delaware for the win lol
A
Third season in a row with climo snow and an extended period of cold. This winter was really cool. Lots of really memorable experiences related to ice. I also spent 5 days on the Tug Hill getting clobberd by LES. I also chased the coastal blizzard in February. I spent that storm in Harrington Delaware.
I was in Gaithersburg around 10. The sun broke out and my truck was reading 72. Soon after my comment the clouds came over and temps dropped. It was surprisingly warm before the front.
