Back into low clouds and even some drizzle. Plenty of time!

Not a lot, but it’s encouraging!

Fog and very low overcast right now in central TX. Hopefully that burns off soon. Short range models are providing me some hope…
Same down to your southwest around Rocksprings. We are ready to make a run NNE if necessary.

I’m hoping everyone that is traveling is able to see the total eclipse and clouds are better than forecast. Have fun down there!
From the deck, we can see a (very snowy) peak of Mt. Washington in the distance, which is pretty cool.
Man, I’m sitting at a brewery eating Texas brisket and Mac and cheese. I’m good!

Just got to our rental north of Jackson, NH. Solid snow cover on the ground - currently in the mid 50s and sunny.
Dude. That’s going to be so cool with snow cover. I love Jackson. Meanwhile, here in Rockspring, TX, high thin clouds and 80.

For those that have clear skies tomorrow, be sure to look for the comet during totality.

I’m driving right now and using voice to write this, but does the 12z gfs look markedly better for Texas?
edit: stopped for a beer and bite outside of San Antonio and gfs isn’t “markedly” better, but 3k nam looks like the front is further east.
Hoping for clear skies for all.

At the airport and grabbing a beer before the flight. Unfortunately there aren’t any Canadian beers on draft. I can’t bring myself to do the Modelo.

Today reminds me of Orioles Opening Day 2003. Except then it snowed.

Looks like a wake low spun through Baltimore through NE MD:
Check out the temp spike (Red Line), Wind gusts (blue lines), and pressure drop (black line), along with a brief spike in solar radiation from the clearing behind the low...probably from some brief subsidence.
Just a few blocks from my house and directly on one of my popular running, er, limping routes.

Over 3" for the event and over 8" since March 1.

The cloud maps from the GFS apparently are terrible from what I was reading on X. Apparently the GEPS is the better product for cloud forecasts. But still a 9 days out so I’m just looking at 500 / MSLP maps.
Cautiously optimistic for the NY/NE.
I’m acting concerned for Texas, but I’m on the @WEATHER53 model bust bus. It’ll be fine!

Ensembles trending wrong way for TX
I’m bringing my passport to hightail it to Mexico if it looks better there.

That last part even more so. Remember some workers lost their lives last year when they were hit on 695 by people going over 100
One of the drivers was sentenced.

Why not drop the anchor?
3 hours ago, Kay said:"The pilot immediately ordered the rudder hard to port to keep the ship from turning right and ordered the port anchor be dropped, which it was, Diamond said. The pilot also contacted a dispatch office to get the bridge shut down."
https://apnews.com/live/baltimore-key-bridge-collapse-latest-2024
Not to mention that dropping an anchor won’t immediately stop a canoe, not to mention a high rise on its side. I don’t know much about marine piloting, but I know that there’s a pretty complicated formula for anchor drop and how much line is needed to secure a stationary ship. Factor in that this ship was incredibly large, moving at about 7 knots, tides, wind, current, and proximity to the truss makes me wonder if dropping anchors would have done (or did) much. I do, however, wonder if tugs on either side could have made a difference. But hindsight is 20/20.

A port worker reporting that the Dali was having serious intermittent power outages for a couple days leading up to the departure.
The article covers the worker’s statements, and the video has her statements beginning around 3:57.This accident must be consuming for you.

I am jealous. Mid Atlantic will get 3 inches of rain. All I eked out of that system was a half inch. You guys get all the luck (and all the beneficial rain).
Some of us are going to need some details on the weather to expect come eclipse time. Looking forward to being out your way.
