    EURO is really screwy with rainfall beyond D3 this spring it seems.
  2. Eskimo Joe
    Yup. Looks like this whole week of wet/cold weather is going 'poof' real fast.

    Going to try Loch Raven reservoir tomorrow. No better way to social distance than on a kayak.
  4. Eskimo Joe
    That's all we're doing patch management.
  5. Eskimo Joe
    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.
  6. Eskimo Joe
    Definitely a step in the right direction for rainfall next week.
  7. Eskimo Joe
    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.

    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.
  9. Eskimo Joe
    Hmmm, not as wet as I thought. The good thing is that long range QPF from NWP is terrible.
  10. Eskimo Joe
    Can't see exact numbers but the Euro looks wet.
  11. Eskimo Joe
    Now with that added context it makes more sense!
  12. Eskimo Joe
    Spring is warmer than winter, who knew.

    2020 gonna 2020

    I posted about this last week. I can't remember a single spring where we didn't get a couple of backdoor cold fronts.
  15. Eskimo Joe
    You all do 24/48 in Arlington?
  16. Eskimo Joe
    Don't waste your time fishing it. It's shallow and fast moving.
  17. Eskimo Joe
    Do you have links to buy the equipment? How was the tower installed? How do you maintain the anenometer?
  18. Eskimo Joe
    Always bank on the backdoor front getting further SW than modeled.

    DC gained it (mostly) recently: https://wamu.org/story/16/03/25/dc_now_has_budget_autonomy_but_what_does_that_actually_mean/

    We have about a dozen tomato seedlings in a cold frame and will be putting them out this coming Saturday. We lost our tomato seedlings about 5 years ago in PA in early May to a rogue frost in York County and learned a big lesson.
  21. Eskimo Joe
    That is an amazing setup! Would you be able to elaborate on your instrumentation, placement and upkeep?
  22. Eskimo Joe
    States, counties and cities with rainy day funds will emerge with the least impact on tax burden on residents and businesses. DC is a prime example of this since they don't have full budget autonomy and get impacted pretty heavily during partial Fed shutdowns.
  23. Eskimo Joe
    Euro really loving the backdoor coldfront potential in the long range.

    How did everyone's garden fare? IMO, if we can make it to Wednesday I think our gardens are fine for the summer. Looks like I've lost some salvia and petunas in an elevated deck box but otherwise made out pretty well.
  25. Eskimo Joe
    Like clockwork, heavy precip showing up along the I-81 corridor.
