12z gfs wakes up the nino water hose.

There were a couple of 0.5" snows that month at BWI so I'm betting most of us saw more than what was reported.

For BWI, first 1" or more happened December 14, 1995, 1.0", December 5, 2002, 7.5", and December 5, 2009, 1". You can go to the NowData for DCA if you want. https://www.weather.gov/wrh/Climate?wfo=lwx

Anyone going to the Raven’s game today? I’ll be at Checkerspot at 11. First beer on me!

Well-played. I’m finally feeling well enough to begin exercising and I’m considering running again. No way I could do a five-miler now though. Good luck!

There’s no “holy shit” emoji so I had to do a Like.

Old Friscos. On Dobbin. They’ll be bringing Rad Pizza soon too, but for now it’s byof. Damn, I love Cushwa’s beers.

I’m at the new Cushwa in Columbia enjoying a Pineapple Upside Down Cake sour!

Congratulations! I don’t want to rush time but I can’t wait.

Came back yesterday temporarily and weak, but strong now. Holy cow, what a relief.

@mattie g was right! Three weeks and it’s back. I can taste and smell!

That's a cool page that I hadn't seen or used before. Thanks!

Damn, Dobbs. Well done.

Fn prednisone is crazy. I lay in bed wide awake thinking stuff like, “This would be a good time to paint the house or put on an addition.”

Yesterday was kind of funny going to the Maryland Beer Fest. Everything tasted the exact same.

I first got symptoms of a cold the weekend of September 9th. I had a dentist appt on the 12th and in trying to be respectful, I took a Covid test and was negative. Since then I’ve been diagnosed with bronchitis and most recently a sinus infection. I’ve been on two antibiotics, prednisone, albuterol, and steroid nasal sprays. The bronchitis cleared up with the first antibiotic and the albuterol. It just never cleared my head so I had a snot culture last Thursday. It’s not officially a sinus infection because the results aren’t back but she was confident enough to start a new antibiotic. I’m feeling better after a day and a half of amoxicillin, but still congested, especially my right ear. I lost taste and smell 17 days ago. I’ve tested myself a few times throughout for Covid, but I think I missed the contagious window, so never a positive result. It’s been frustrating but not debilitating. I haven’t missed any work though I probably have spread some of it around. I do think it’ll get better soon. @mattie g gave me hope when he said he lost angio something or other for three weeks.

Still no taste or smell here.

No. I think he was implying the radar looked good for flurries for those peeps.

Maybe in 60 years as the Texas Warlocks.

With the icon you use, how did I not figure this out sooner?!?

I’m pretty sure Doug Hill was a PG cop that was a weather enthusiast. I’m not sure he had a met degree when he started on TV but am probably wrong. Regardless, I used to love watching him and Glenn Brenner banter.

Happens every year.

BWI: 26.0 DCA: 17.0 IAD: 28.0 RIC: 11.0 Tiebreaker SBY: 30.0 (because I want @Lowershoresadness to post all winter) edit: I also want it known that I made my picks before seeing @Terpeast’s winter forecast.

Rain with definite globs hitting the windshield on the way to work today.

As an old Senators fan, I am sorry to hear of the passing of Frank Howard. I remember heading to the All-Star game at RFK in July, 1969, only to turn around when the game was postponed due to rain. The game was played the following day and Frank hit a dinger.
