    I was working night shift in a warehouse in Savage, MD in Feb ‘83. The snow began while we were working. Before leaving, I asked the boss “if it snows all day, are we working tonight?” He told me emphatically that we didn’t close for snow. Having grown up in Western Md. where we rarely closed for snow, I took him at his word. That evening, I swept 2’ of snow off my driveway (didn’t own a shovel) and dutifully drove to work. Only to find the place deserted and 4’ drifts against the door.

    Getting a heck of a storm here. Torrential rain for more than 20 minutes so far and still going. Booming thunder and frequent wind gusts above 40 mph.

    @MN Transplant@nw baltimore wx Thanks for the bus suggestion guys. Will definitely look into it.

    Just finalized reservations for flights, lodging and an SUV rental for a week in the Northern Rockies the first week of August. Planning to hike Glacier National Park, Yellowstone and Grand Teton with my son. Looks like some of the trails we plan to hit have been closed recently due to heavy rain and snow melt. Others due to heightened bear activity ! Hoping the forecast for that ridge to set up out west the next few weeks verifies. Will rely on bear spray for the rest.

    100/75 heat index 114 for the third straight day

    Hearing MRB may have had an intra-hour high of 101, which would be 1 degree short of the record for the date from 1931. Should be confirmed within the hour.

    97/78 on my station. HI of 114.

    My point and click now has 100 on Saturday, 96 on Sunday and 94 on Monday. I had thought the worst of the heat was expected to subside by then. Not surprised though. July is gonna July.

    I worked in an orchard picking apples and peaches that summer. If I hadn't been 17 years old, I doubt I would have survived it.

    I measured 0.07" yesterday morning. Nothing since except a few light sprinkles.

    Nothing severe here with that line, but some booming thunder with lightning and pouring rain. Winds gusting to 30.

    STW for my yard until 6:15. Storm looks good on radar and continuing to grow. Already hearing thunder well in advance of the cell

    Storms ended up skirting all around my yard. 5 minutes of rain earlier dropped 0.03". Now sunny and a muggy 79/69.
  21. WVclimo
    Winds gusting above 30 mph here with that severe cell moving to my north. That and the overcast are knocking down the heat.

    Nice heavy downpour with some gusty wind. High was 93.

    Picked up 0.20" today. Some sunshine peeking through now.

    Dime-sized hail pouring down here. Beginning to accumulate.

    A generous D+ due to the cold. Received at least an inch of snow only once all winter. Fourth-lowest snowfall total in my 20 years in WV at 11".
