Memorial Day weekend looks a little too chilly for swimming.

Damn.. @wxtrix  looks like your last message got removed 

Yeh I don’t think she can help who she is or even realizes how shitty she comes across at times to folks, but it’s best to just pray for her and hope she do better. 

Little out loop on dc guidelines - any word if full capacity for wiz playoff game? Be cool to take my boy to

The lottery stuff does seem to help to some extent.  Following weeks of declines, Ohio had a 6% increase in vaccinations in the 30-74 age group after the announcement about a $1,000,000 winner each week for the next 5 weeks.

Yeh deep down that feels kind of a shitty. We may not all care tho because we want people to be vaccinated, but to play off someone’s habits/flaws to achieve our own agenda feels little inconsiderate and manipulative  Feels intentionally targeted to specific and vulnerable  population

Don't mind the warmth after a pretty mild/cool spring, but could use some rain.

Sunny lawns in my nhood are drying out already! Of course, I'll probably be eating those words when we have a pattern flip in June or something and rains for 3 weeks straight

Agreed it’s getting little crunchy. 

Bring the heat! I can’t wait for pool days

Need to get back to sports and beer talk. 

 

Like how the caps are going to do their annual shiit the bed in the first round......

Back to beer...

What is a good warm weather beer to transition to after hibernating with stouts?

Others have had posts wiped for less. Consistency would be nice around here.

In fairness, I wiped my own posts (man that sounds filthy) because I really wasn’t intending to create drama. It felt like healthy discussion topic until Mrs. Phineas got excited, so figured just kill it

Stellar day!

Yep, but let’s just have the temp from 6am-10am little bit warmer. Thankfully I hear the heat is coming, so pretty sure I’ll be complaining it’s too hot/too early soon

yes, knowing facts is a self-awareness problem. mmmmhmm. good talk.

No worries,  but thanks for sharing the article. Really enjoyed the section on “Things we don’t know”

it’s been part of CDC guidance for months now. your ignorance is not a reason to insult me.

See post above.

I wasn’t insulting you, just more so analyzing your personality. We all know someone like you and as frustrating and annoying as it is, we have to remember you can’t help it, it’s just who you are for whatever reason. If you had the self awareness you wouldn’t be this way, so I try not to take it personal anymore

It’s true though. Vaccination doesn’t mean complete immunity. It simply means that the chances of contracting the virus drop significantly and that it almost completely negates serious COVID. We just have to accept that, in many situations, vaccinated individuals will test positive but have no symptoms and will not be able to transmit the virus to others.

Yeh def get that part. Just still feels like a lot to learn about it such as Is one brand more effective? Was it a variant? Why were 6/7 asymptomatic?

We don’t often to get to hear about many of the folks that still get it after being vaccinated, so with these happening to a professional sports team, it would be nice to hear little more about the data and learnings

we already knew vaccinated people could become infected with covid.

You know everything lol. Take care.

7 Yankees tested positive even after being vaccinated. Just seems like there is so much still to learn 

Windy, cloudy, cold. Hope sun makes appearance later today.

Def out of gas around here. So stupid. Crazy how effective social media is with manipulating folks and politicizing everything. 

Yeh I’m really trying not to complain because could be worse, but I hate days where it takes so long for sun to come out to salvage the little bit left of day. That said I’m glad the sun made a visit

How we looking long term? I’d rather just have some heat then this dreary crap. At least with heat the pools be ready to go come Memorial Day

Oh look. Another overcast cold morning. 

Def was hard to get going on this Monday 

Hope all the moms out there have an amazing day tomorrow. Thanks for all y’all do! Happy Mother’s Day!

Officially fully vaccinated today (two weeks after second dose) and it is my last day of classes as a junior at UVA! Time flies...

Also super excited to let ya'll know that I'll interning with Accuweather over the summer. Getting all kinds of weather journalism experience... it really is the passion of people here that has kept me so enthused about the weather. 

Congrats!

It’s been a pleasant spring but def has felt like there has been too many cold mornings. 

Def toasty. It’s got that “should be day drinking at the pool” kind of vibe. Can’t wait for chill days of summer, but I’d prefer it tad cooler until we get there 

Glad to get some rain today. Don’t really have allergies but felt like I had rocks in my eyes after cutting grass other day. Def been a bright green spring
