    Back when I played ladies rec hockey in university, primarily as a goalie, the equipment was one-size-fits all (ie. men's equipment) and usually damp from previous uses. No matter how many times I washed my hands they smelled like damp hockey equipment for a full 24 hours. Which reminds me of a legendary Molson commercial about a hockey equipment bag:

    Gorgeous sunset this evening.

    I'm downwind from the fire, about a mile and half. Ash lying around all over the place and it just reeks outside. I'd appreciate some rain right now. For those familiar with the area, this is directly across Route 1 from the 24-hour WalMart and the Chuck E Cheese, and the Krispy Kreme is a couple blocks south. https://wtop.com/fairfax-county/2020/02/massive-fire-engulfs-fairfax-county-construction-site/

    If you're referring to the location near the Eisenhower Metro station, it's back open.

    Yikes. I had a basic broken ankle and it hurt like the dickens; can't imagine the pain she's in. Hopefully everything goes well from here on out so that a throbbing foot when there are significant pressure changes is the only long-term issue she'll have.

    I can think of a few NHL teams that would like to speak to you re: the dominance thing. With respect to Brady and Belichek, I think it is part "Could someone else win already," but the media needs to take a bunch of blame for their hero-worship of certain athletes, like Brady, and professional sports leagues for encouraging that focus on certain athletes over the team sport aspect. At a certain point it becomes a turnoff to the average fan who otherwise would say that person is good at what they do. Now that I've probably annoyed a Pats fan or two, I'll move a bit down 95 and add that I'm sure I wasn't the only person who thought the MLB/media slobberfest during Derek Jeter's last season got really tiring really fast. I mean, good players retire all the time but they don't get pre-game ceremonies and goodbye gifts from every other team in the league. Of course, now he spends his time running the Marlins into the ground.

    And look what happened as a result...

    Does anyone own a gong this thread could use?

    Surely someone at People could have used a search engine to make sure the article got NWS' full name correct?

    The videos were taken while the eye was passing over. They've got a lot longer to go.

    Airlines are issuing waiver notices for Florida airports for flights scheduled in the Aug. 29-Sept. 4 timeframe.

    Looks the same to me. Although I don't think it's over the bridge; it's a bit further back down the river.

    You're not doing this properly! You should be calling bust based on the radar!
  14. fourseasons
    Plus there haven't been any "bust" calls yet.

    Plus we've got Rolling Thunder going on right now in DC and environs, the concert at the Capitol tonight, pools open, people out on the water boating, etc.

    Hopefully they can get the Memorial Day concert finished before a line comes through (it runs from 8-9:30 p.m. on the U.S. Capitol grounds). I've attended when it was simply pouring rain, but this would be a smidge different.

    It's pretty windy in my corner of Fairfax County (really close to the southern line of Alexandria City).
  18. fourseasons
    About the middle, right-hand side? Edit: The radar I'm looking at just refreshed, and I can see what you're talking about.

    Teeny tiny flakes in Alexandria, Fairfax County, near the Wilson Bridge.

    A Western Omelet from Eastern Market, DC along with the potatoes is wonderful thing. The French Toast, too. Meanwhile, another lull along the Alexandria/Fairfax County line.

    Metro should be fine; unless conditions are really lousy, usually it takes 8 inches of accumulation (height of the 3rd rail) to get outdoor portions shut down.
