  1. Smoke from NJ wildfires is being pushing into northeast MD this evening. Several smoke investigation calls into Harford, Baltimore and Carroll 911 centers. Also a spike in low level particulate has been observed at several air quality stations in the Baltimore metro area.
  2. 06z GEFS mean precip for Thurs - Fri is 1" - 2" for I-95 west. 12z GFS op with 1" - 1.5" rain Thurs - Fri for I-95 west. Given our track record of late, we can probably expect 15 min of drizzle.
  3. This is a great period of weather for transplants...cool, cloudy. I've never lost a transplant when we have weather like this. A good shot in the arm will be taking some of the Miracle-Gro water soluble tomato fertilizer (yes this, not the blue stuff) and watering your transplants with this mix in about a week. It has a lower nitrogen content so it will help promote root and stem health. One good application should do, and that will bolster the plant(s) before the hot weather comes in.
  4. You can never post enough pictures like this in the garden thread.
  5. Ours was approved in Baltimore County...it has to be at least 5 feet from the property line, and at least 10 feet from and overhead power line.
  6. How large of a pool in diameter and how deep are we talking about?
  7. So this is where our rain went.
  8. EURO is really screwy with rainfall beyond D3 this spring it seems.
  9. Yup. Looks like this whole week of wet/cold weather is going 'poof' real fast.
  10. Going to try Loch Raven reservoir tomorrow. No better way to social distance than on a kayak.
  11. That's all we're doing patch management.
  12. Thinking tomorrow is a good day to set down more grass seed and patch the lawn a bit more before we get a week of wet weather.
  13. Definitely a step in the right direction for rainfall next week.
  14. Yea, this setup favor the I-81 corridor more than anyone else. Us low landers are probably going to just get some wet weather. At least my young grass will win out.
  15. True, but it's going to be spread out over several days, and with the reduced continental aircraft data we've been busting high on QPF forecasting by over 50% since March. As of now, it doesn't appear to be a widespread issue unless things change quickly.
  16. Hmmm, not as wet as I thought. The good thing is that long range QPF from NWP is terrible.
  17. Can't see exact numbers but the Euro looks wet.
  18. Now with that added context it makes more sense!
  19. Spring is warmer than winter, who knew.
  20. I posted about this last week. I can't remember a single spring where we didn't get a couple of backdoor cold fronts.
  21. You all do 24/48 in Arlington?
  22. Don't waste your time fishing it. It's shallow and fast moving.
  23. Do you have links to buy the equipment? How was the tower installed? How do you maintain the anenometer?
  24. Always bank on the backdoor front getting further SW than modeled.
