Here in the lowlands I never doubt heat. This area is the Oswego County of heat. Just like the Tug, when they call for snow, it always happens, and some. Same here with heat
Is it possible I'm having a hot hand right now? Another nice blob headed for mby as i type. This is the greenest drought i can remember. No dead grass here yet. The heat will kill it regardless.
That batch of rain west of DC has been sitting there since last evening. It just morphs but doesn't move east. That area is doing well. I'm thankful for the rain i received last evening.
Mission accomplished. I caught my jumbos today. Beautiful day for crabbing. The rain held off until we were done crabbing and sitting outside on the screen porch eating. I probably have gotten close to an inch so far. Radar looks interesting.
More brutally boring weather ^ lol. Looks like a good day to go crabbing. I'm hoping to sit on my screen porch and eat crabs later on while it's storming.
It's the same game for the past 3 years. We're not getting anything besides a few sprinkles today. The only story in town is the extreme heatwave and the drought.
I probably should I waited to start this thread. Everything pretty much trended north where they don't need rain. Hopefully it keeps going north. Not trying to ruin the weekend with worthless sprinkles.
It looks like a front will be stalling over our area late Friday afternoon and low pressure in the Midwest moves along the front and into the area. It looks like a slow mover. It could be a long duration, beneficial rain event. Let's talk about it here.
Using my "I'm the boss" card this afternoon. The area of rain is building and looking good. I'm going to put my bathing suit on and go for a rainy hike. It's been so dry that it should feel great out there.
Looks like you're about to get a nice steady rain. Hopefully this morning rain produces for everyone that missed out yesterday. NAM 3k is juicy for today.
Classic stormy summer evening here in the lowlands. It's been steady heavy rain and loud thunder for the past 90 minutes. Radar looks fantastic for DC, PG, and most of AA south of BWI.
Heavy tropical rain and a bunch of lightning just rolled through the lowlands of AA County. I don’t hate the radar. I can already hear the cell near DC. Hopefully this area is about to get some training.
Hopefully they become big ole, slow moving gully washers with lots of lightning. Severe around here is always really isolated. I feel like the majority of it comes from random down burst during summer thunderstorms. I remember widespread straight line winds once in my nearly 50 years here. Tornados are rare unless you live in La Plata. Evidently that town has been flattened more than once.
