H2O

clouds and drizzle again.  for over a week my rain gauge says at least 0.02 every morning.  Epic drought buster

I'm gonna be the lone person saying this, I'm sure, but I honestly think the issue the Os had most of the season(with hitting) was the constant lineup changes and batting order.  It felt like because they have a lot of young players they were trying to get all of them at bats and over time the hitters developed bad habits.  Too many games where it wasn't the same lineup every time.  Not sure all the blame can be thrown on Hyde.  This is the same guy that turned the team around and got them playing well.  Starting pitching was a nightmare with all the ones hurt for the season.  It all adds up and the Royals got hot at the right time.  

Its a good team so don't throw in the towel.  Shit, it took the Bats over a decade to get a WS and had much better seasons only to get stuffed in the playoffs thanks to the Cards and Phils.

Globals are all essentially 100% dry for next 10 days so should have a nice stretch of fall weather 

Too warm. Please find 60s and bring here

I’m digging these WTF Commanders. Daniels is flat out legit

The sun somehow makes things worse.  Now it is warm and humid.

Today looks to be the only day to get the grass cut here(amazingly it’s grown).

Just spent an hour cutting and between the sun and humidity it feels like Florida in August. Absolutely gross out

Sunshine!!!

I wasn't mentioning the Burrow ACL like it was a death knell...he came back year 2 and took them to the Super Bowl.  My main thought was to just go ahead and be happy as a fanbase that it appears the QB you took has all the actual upside you want to see and is showing it early (like Burrow did before the knee injury - and, yes, Burrow came back just as good post-injury. He's still a top tier QB).

I think Washington has one too, is my general thought. 

Daniels has a ton of potential. Def a lot of positives and hope a lot like Burrow when he came into the league. 
 

Commanders fans just have nightmares of RG3 who did have ACL issues and never returned to previous form. Running QBs take risks and for all the good things Daniels is doing now, he is one hit away from either being a bounce back Burrow or one and done RG3. I hope he can be the former if it happens. 
 

Meanwhile we can enjoy what Daniels does in the hope he helps turn around what has been a godawful team for decades. Similar to Burrow and I think y’all still have a number of years left with him being elite. Give him weapons and get some better D play and can still have a good season

I mean, we lost Burrow during his rookie year, game 9, to...your team with a blown ACL. Its the NFL, stuff happens. But what you can take absolute heart from is that, setting aside the injury variable which is somewhat random (not entirely, but largely) - Daniels absolutely exudes "IT" - whatever you want to see from an NFL qb - Daniels has all o' that. If I were you all, just bask in that for however long the ride lasts. Beats having drafted, say, Bryce Young a year ago...for instance, at any rate. 

The injury fear is legit as it seems every team's QB suffers something.  Losing Burrow that one year was tough but he's come back really well from it.  He just needs a defense(much like we do right now) to also give him good field positions to take advantage of.  Of all the AFC North teams, Cincy is one i root for.  I hope they can turn things around and get some wins.  It sure wasn't much his fault they lost last night.  Two perfect bombs to Chase.  The Brown family needs to pay that guy and stop being cheap with their talent.

Just out observing cloud movement on this SECOND tornado warning in about an hour, and this was the first time I've heard, from MY house, Fort Belvoir's "Giant Voice" system blaring its siren and booming "TORNADO WARNING, TAKE COVER NOW!" I do think the worst of that storm is directly over the river, and it is indeed ominous looking just to our east.

That storm on radar seems to be taking a direct bead on the District...but haven't seen any additional warnings issued for the city proper in a few minutes.

I just "chased" that after dropping one kid off at work.  Beacon Hill area had some wind gusts but nothing bad.  Elevated areas were breezy but once you got low like near Huntington it was just pouring rain.  So all the rotation has to be elevated.  

The cloud deck is really low tho.  Lots of scud.  And the difference between being under the yellows and reds vs greens or nothing is huge.  It POURS in these bands.  Lots of street flooding and ponding of water where its dumping.  My truck makes big waves in those puddles and ponding. lol

Blue sky to my west now.
