    Ehh I had 85 hours in a truck last week between the two storms, not complaining for a little break.
  2. jewell2188
    Is this the year of last minute adjustments to give the area a decent storm?
  3. jewell2188
    Northern areas yes. Immediate metro, no.

    Rather be in the 60’s the days leading up to a 6-12 incher versus 20’s and low 30’s for highs and no snow lol. Heck we pulled it off earlier in the week!!!!

    Unless radar fills in, majority of the rain shield looks to be west of 81 I think anyone in the immediate nova/DC area expecting more than an inch are going to be highly disappointed. Maybe some isolated higher amounts but current radar depiction doesn’t look good if your rooting for a lot of rain.

    I would say yes. At roughly $16 billion i would think improvements have been made. From the reports some areas outside the levee protection are bad but areas within are okay. The real question is a storm that sustains long term cat 3-4 strength how will that investment stand up? Again maybe I’m putting to much thought into it but i think it’s a legit conversation.

    Makes sense. Always have been curious about this. I think it would be an interesting study for sure. You would thing a long sustained cat 3-4 traversing the gulf prior to landfall would produce much more damage especially storm surge compared to a storm strengthening to a cat 3-4 or 5 right at landfall.

    Maybe someone can Collaborate…we all know this was never Katrina…..but to my knowledge Katrina was extremely strong long before landfall. Is there a difference between a hurricane with long sustained strength compared to a hurricane strengthening prior to landfall? I’ve always been under the impression that a hurricane strengthening prior to landfall sometimes doesn’t always translate to ground conditions compared to a storm with long sustained strength.

    The nam typically is overdone with precip amounts. But even 1-3 for the majority of the area may cause problems.

    We get shafted….seems legit.

    Ryan reeves put out a response to the Tom Wilson and rangers Incident this past season and how he would have responded to it…..long story short reeves it’s such a mediocre player compared to Tom Wilson it’s not even funny. I can’t stand the fact he thinks his play on the ice is even decent….

    Radar is meh.
  14. jewell2188
    Highly doubt the FFW verifies for majority of the area.
  15. jewell2188
    Filtered sun here in stone ridge.
  16. jewell2188
    The same areas hit hard the other night are in-line again. I’m only frustrated because where I’m located we could use every bit of it. Grass is still crunchy! I miss mowing lol
  17. jewell2188
    Can you post some rainfall totals?
  18. jewell2188
    Areas west of 95 look unimpressive this evening. As it has been last few days.
  19. jewell2188
    Extremely interesting on the FFW issued. It would seem a somewhat larger area would be warranted.
  20. jewell2188
    I mean I would agree. We have better coverage with decent storms in a marginal outlook versus slight/enhanced. But has I said mid morning, sunny sky’s turned into overcast. Kiss of death. It’s not anything unexpected around here lol.
  21. jewell2188
    Cloud cover ruined today for widespread storms. But that was known late morning. Seems as though it’s always something in this area that could ruin a wet dream.
  22. jewell2188
    What was a sunny morning has give way to pretty overcast here in N fauquier county.
  23. jewell2188
    Enhanced threat now for northern portions of the area.
  24. jewell2188
    Just judging by current radar this does appear to be generally north of 66 and possible north of DC metro event.
  25. jewell2188
    I live in culpeper and it in fact it ended with 8-10 inches. Countless roads gone and one bridge collapse. Numerous swift water rescues due to ignorant people. The water rise was so quick it was mind blowing.
