  1. We are overloaded with cucumbers and shortly will be with tomatoes. Our garlic was phenomenal once again with over a 95% success rate and 78 heads of garlic harvested. We are going to dry the garlic and will have a fresh stock for the winter. Our Long Island Cheese pumpkins are also doing well.
  2. If we get a weak to moderate west based El Nino we'll at least have the ingredients in place. That's half the battle in these parts. There's nothing worse than wasting 2/3rds of our prime weeks in December and January with nothing but day 15 threats go poof as they draw closer.
  3. A setup like what is progged on the global guidance would favor the coastal plain and eastern slopes of the mountains. There would likely be a minimum somewhere around I-95 and it's important to note that not everyone would get widespread 5"+.
  4. Correct. My benchmark for a non-tropical flood setup.
  5. June 2006 showing up on the CIPS Analogs for this weekend/next week.
  6. How do you place the soap? In a pantry hose or something?
  7. Hope it rains today...we really need it.
  8. I'm psyched big time about this winter. We're gonna get two nice Miller A storms in January and a nice December cold wave.
  9. Outside of that warm week in July this summer has been cold. Wonder if it's a sign of a cold winter coming.
  10. This weather sucks. Where is the 95 and humid?
  11. My experience is that we blow by guidance on the last 2 or 3 days of heat waves in these parts. It's almost like a diesel engine, slow to start but hard to stop.
  12. Looks like an outflow boundary coming your way...probably will kick off some additional popcorn thunderstorms.
  13. I have a sneaking suspicion that we'll see some outflow boundary drift south from PA after dark and set some storms off.
  14. Terrain is the kicker. Once the storms drift off the ridge they seem to die pretty quickly.
  15. Beets and radish are good fall crops. Collard greens are good too.
  16. Sitting in Reisterstown watching the cell near 695 and 795 going up. Decent amount of low thunder in the distance.
  17. I hope DCA and BWI stay warm overnight and don't drop below 80°. The worst is when a shower pops up at 10pm and douses a site.
  18. Heat Warnings going to be needed for DC, Arlington, Baltimore and Baltimore City.
  19. Looks like a slight NE flow today, which would keep the DCA temp below 95°. That site is just so poorly place. Need to get another ob inside the District. Why not the White House or a Smithsonian location? I would make so much more sense.
  20. Pretty robust surface instability...certainly the lack of a kicker and high heights will preclude widespread activity but if something can go up watch out.
  21. Convective temp is only 96° today so it's possible that we see some showers cool a few spots off.
  22. 86/78 at work it actually feels nice in the shade but not in the sun.
  23. Just hit 100° at the EOC weather station. It has a fan aspirated radiation shield & is on grass.
  24. 97° at work...fire department canceling all outdoor training this afternoon.
