    IAD gusted to 66 mph...wow

    It looks like a legit right moving, low topped supercell. Even the 0.5° BV has 50Kt winds right off the deck. Impressive.
  3. Eskimo Joe
    Probably a nice shelf cloud starting to develop from that storm.

    That's a legit little cell in Loudoun...probably riding the terrain and some differential heating boundary. Seems like there's more clearing over NOVA than the MD side of the Potomac.

    Just got a SVR (#532 for LWX this calendar year).
  6. Eskimo Joe
    Looks like parts of the region just got upgraded to a D1 SLGT

    I think with the advances of short term guidance I really think the days of a big storm totally sneaking up on us are just about over. Just IMO, the 2000 and 2011 events were back before we really made the leap on the HRRR, etc.

    Nope, I love legit winter storms especially ones that surprise everyone. Just like 1/25/2000...it's a shame that with better forecasting accuracy these are quickly becoming a thing of the past

    Just like June 13, 2013 when we went from D1 MOD to nada in 2 hours. Moco had a tornado but that was it.

    Damn I was legit curious. I'm not well versed on storms pre 1987. Sounds like the kind of storm I'd love!

    D2 ENH/MOD is the kiss of death in these parts.

    What was so neat about the blizzard of 79?

    September to December is the best beer time of the year.

    I planted on time, but lost a week of feeding/weeding for a small vacation. That tip was for everyone else because there's nothing more exciting than watching pumpkins grow and making fresh pie from them.
  16. Eskimo Joe
    Yup. D2 ENH is the new D2 MOD in these parts...destined for failure.

    Pumpkins finally showing up on my vines. ProTip: if you're trying to grow squash, melons or pumpkins and only getting male flowers, it is likely due to stress. Feed your plants a high potash formula for 2 weeks and you'll see female flowers pretty quickly.

    People forget the ENH is just the old 30%. We average between 1 and 3 ENH a year and it's been pretty quite this year even compared to our usual quietness so I wonder if folks are just starved for some action.

    RIP, winter 2019 - 2020

    We won't even have the NAM or SREFs to cling to anymore. #EPIC https://owaq.noaa.gov/Programs/EPIC

    Chasing swallotails...RIP my right arm.
  22. Eskimo Joe
    Gardened for most of the day Sunday and got Rue Rash....far worse than poison ivy. Blerg it burns and doctor has nothing for it except to let it run its course for about 10 days.
  23. Eskimo Joe
    91/79 at HGR...wow

    No problem. Living in NW Baltimore County we also have the clay soil. Tilling in the stuff that I mentioned above (i edited the post to include a link) will go far. The best thing is that $40 gets you 8 bags even when it's not on sale.
