  1. Any pool people here? We are with out a working pool. When we opened, we decided to drain the pool this year, and have water brought in (we are on a well, and our water is pretty contaminated by runoff due to salting operations during the winter). In doing so we found a lot of plaster damage. I don't think the pool has been resurfaced since it was installed (1990s), so I assume it's pretty standard wear and tear. However, for three weeks now, we have not been able to get anyone to schedule an estimate to figure out the cost of getting it repaired. We can't even get calls back. I know its a busy time for pool companies, but jesus. 

    Figured I'd ask to see if anyone here has experience with pools/plaster/resurfacing work.

    Yea...I saw and heard t+l for 4 hours from my yard. Last night's storm was a top 5 for me of all time. Constant Powerful lightning and thunder right overtop of me for a very  long time ...a long duration hail event( 30 minutes  ) to go with it . 2.5" of rain . Hail slightly bigger then Quarters . 

    Same, I fell asleep at 11 and it was only before that when the long off rumbles finally stopped. I didn't get nearly as much rain out of it as you, but quarter size hail at least :)

    I am just hoping we do not get a repeat tonight. Second night of dance recital rehearsal downtown at the Weinberg. The dressing rooms downstairs flooded last night forcing the dancers to gather up their costumes barefoot. And to make matters worse a leak opened up on the roof right over the stage resulting in the video below taken by one of the instructors.

    We are there almost till the end again tonight and I do not want to have to ever drive home in what we had last night ever again. 

    Hugs! Hopefully it won't be too bad tonight, and the rest of the week.

  3. crazy pics out of frederick last night, hope everyone from here, who lives there, are okay. 

    But storms like that last night are my favorite. It thundered for hours. Just long rumbles, lots of lightning. wasn't much wind with the initial thump, the hail was cool and picked up some rain, but wasn't a deluge all night.

    There is a great amount of DCAPE...my rule is 1,000j/kg or greater = widespread wind threat and we're pushing 1,100 north of I-70.  I think you and I might get some action on the southern flank.

    Yup. As I said earlier, if it can drop out of PA earlier rather than later, it will feed off our CAPE and should give us a nice little event.
