Tornado watch just to the south Sent from my SM-F711U using Tapatalk

Got dark as night here before it hit. Torrential rain and some gusts probably in the 40s Sent from my SM-F711U using Tapatalk

I was aware of that warning, but no mention of a tornado threat in the text. It's hard to tell having to compare against velocity data from DIX and LWX Sent from my SM-F711U using Tapatalk

Hard to tell with Dover radar down, but it looks like this storm is rotating. Sent from my SM-F711U using Tapatalk

Anyone know why the Dover, DE radar is down, or a link to where I can check radar statuses? Sent from my SM-F711U using Tapatalk

Probably from the wildfire smoke coming down from Canada.

Missed me by a few miles...friend nearly lost a roof. Pretty intense for this area Sent from my SM-F711U using Tapatalk

It's right on the cusp Sent from my SM-F711U using Tapatalk

Looks like it's trying to rotate too Sent from my SM-F711U using Tapatalk

I haven't started S3 of Picard, but I'm glad to hear it'll at least be watchable. The first 2 seasons were OK, but they never really "felt" like authentic Trek to me....Lower Decks I'll agree with you is great and does capture that "feel" more often, and if you've watched at least 2 different Trek series there are a ton of Easter eggs and homages to past shows that had me rolling more than once. It's nice to know that Trek can translate well to humor/animation, and still be able to pull it off. Have to agree with you on Disco, I tried multiple times, and just could never really get into it.....way overused the Mirror Universe trope, and the whole Red Angel thing was about where I just plain lost interest.....maybe one day I'll get around to watching the rest, at least from a completion standpoint. If you liked Lower Decks, you may also like Prodigy.... granted its geared towards kids, but I still feel like it has some really good writing, even if it feels just a little Star-Wars-y at times, I have thoroughly enjoyed it nonetheless. Haven't seem SNW yet, but I have yet to hear anything bad about it, which is surprising considering how most 1st seasons of Trek shows usually go. DS9, no argument here. It rarely shows its age, and watches more like something written far more recently than 20+ years ago. Just about every plotline feels relevant, perhaps even more so in a post 9/11 world. Remains my favorite out of every Trek I've watched up to this point. "In The Pale Moonlight" is still to this day some of the finest writing I have ever seen in television, Trek or otherwise.

this really is the best long range thread yet.

almost as good as a pizza party.

This is sig-worthy
