  1. Great weekend, if a tad warm. Was pleasant to be outside and get stuff done in the garden. @Yeomanmy crops are doing just okay. Hope it rains tomorrow.
  2. Getting fringed by rain in Silver Spring. Damp, but no real appreciable rain yet. Hope it pokes back NW a bit.
  3. Kids playing rec soccer at local parks, kicking up clouds of dust like we live in Amarillo. Rain is so 2010s
  4. That line just missed me in silver spring. Formed overhead lol
  5. HRRR likes east of 95. Bay Special
  6. Active period coming up. Buckle in.
  7. About 0.6" average at local cocorahs which seems right. It really poured for a bit last night and woke me up. Hoping for more later this week so I don't have to water the veggie sprouts...
  8. Thanks! Should have clarified. I have a garden enclosure that is netted to keep deer and varmints away. The vegetable beds are there, in those big raised steel pre-assembled garden bed things. I was just covering the ground around those beds inside the enclosure with the wood chips, because it was previously scraggly crab grass and creeping vines. Now I won't have to weed whack it. The beds themselves have topsoil and compost.
  9. Mulch. Sticking it to big mulch, done paying for that crap. Bought my house a couple years ago and the previous owner let the yard and garden go ignored, so I have a ton of garden beds that are just weeds. It's going around trees, around azaleas, covering areas around my vegetable garden beds, etc. Burying it all in wood chips. For free!
  10. Another breezy day in the DMV. At least it's not that cold anymore
  11. Anybody else ever use the service chip drop to get some free wood chips? I got about 15 cubic yards of fresh white pine chips dumped in front of my house couple weeks ago. Just finished spreading it on my quarter acre. I want more LOL
  12. It's gonna snow in Virginia Beach again probably
  13. Yep. Panels cranking this past week.
  14. Remember when it used to rain?
  15. Is a gorgeous spring morning in Silver Spring.
  16. I don't disagree on your "sucks 90% of the time" point. And yes I remember the 2014 snows, and the ubermelt of the 2016 storm when we torched after. But after 90 days of cold and gray, March snow just hits different. I feel like I might feel differently if I lived somewhere semi-rural like you; around the UHI getting March snow to stick has an extra difficulty factor. I would never say I don't want it to snow in March, it's always nice when it snows (even in April)! But my snow pleasure index is higher in DJF than MA.
  17. not normal, but the odds of that not normal event happening in january are effectively infinitely higher than that happening in march. which is why some of us don't like march snow. it's not an unreasonable opinion lol
  18. the 3 weeks of snowcover i had in january beg to differ
  19. I'm down with heavy snow for another 10 days or so ... but especially after DST switch, I'm ready for green and heat
  20. Decent flurry tv in silver spring
  21. Great spot. So are the trails owned by the American Chestnut Land trust. Also flag ponds nature park is stunning
  22. Really grieving our fail here. It's cold, cloudy, and has that feels-like-a-snowstorm feeling in the air. Too bad we're cooked, fried, ruined.
