nw baltimore wx

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

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.

Me too. Uncle.

Can we delete this thread and start a new one?

I’m acting concerned for Texas, but I’m on the @WEATHER53 model bust bus. It’ll be fine!

I’m bringing my passport to hightail it to Mexico if it looks better there.

This is O-mazing!!! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TNyCKtEwFiQ

One of the drivers was sentenced. https://www.thebaltimorebanner.com/community/criminal-justice/melachi-duane-darnell-brown-sentencing-deadly-crash-construction-workers-interstate-695-K2F2RY4ZNRCRZJIV2KT3NK6FPY/

Let’s Go!!!

The nams are much better this morning than last night. Might be able to eek this game in!

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. https://www.itv.com/news/2024-03-26/major-bridge-in-baltimore-collapses-following-collision-with-cargo-ship @CAPE This accident must be consuming for you.

Some of us are going to need some details on the weather to expect come eclipse time. Looking forward to being out your way.

Leaving work and it smells weirdly like snow. But this is the mid Atlantic.

Man, the mid Atlantic is soft. Rio de Janeiro had a heat index of 144F.

March blows.

I’m flying in Friday night and spending Saturday in SA. Driving west a couple hours for Sunday and Monday, and back to SA Tuesday and Wednesday.

You’re definitely swaying.

How is this thread so active when I need to mow my lawn?

I hear @ravensrule would fly to Thailand to get it. But that’s just a rumor. He probably does just fine locally.

I work 15 jobs just to pay for someone to do my taxes.

I’m going to have to cut the backyard in a week.

I need to get out and do some pruning this weekend or I'm going to miss my opportunity.
