  1. @CAPEYou have any details on the oak tree disease? We've lost 8 50+ year old oaks in the past couple years and everyone is scratching their heads (had arborists out to look before we cut them down). UMD is supposedly looking into it but I can't find any new information on the net. There are at least 15 more in the neighborhood that I can tell are gonna go soon. The crown starts dying off and the only leaves are off larger branches/trunk. I do have a ton of firewood from it all, although I would rather have the trees and shade
  2. I am in Toronto and it feels like San Juan. Crazy deluges then sun. Radar yesterday looked more like a tropical system than something you would expect up north.
  3. Thought it was going to be cloudy today and went golfing. Walking 18 in blazing sun was a dumb idea and car said 90 when i was done. Roasted.
  4. just sounded like a bomb went off in Ellicott City. No rain, just a deep, long, rumble.
  5. Dang, swim team is serious bizness! Almost as serious as IMBY snow. My daughter started softball in the spring. Team was all new to the sport so we didnt win any but had a couple ties and the ladies had fun and learned a lot. Glad we were on the team we were because some of the others took it real serious.
  6. Sunny, 72 and a light breeze in deep creek. Low humidity makes the house purchase worth every penny. Now I know why Washington vacationed out here .
  7. 55 and cloudy, great lake weather. /sarcasm
  8. we got out on the field for my daughters softball game and the sky opened up. Perfect timing. At least the sod i just laid down is getting a good soak!
  9. I bought one of these Robotic Lawn Mower | Husqvarna US this spring. Best money I've ever spent! Obs: Its hooooooooottt.
  10. That line was a nothingburger in Ellicott City. Even the recycling truck kept driving around in it. My trash cans are secure.
  11. So far just rain, a bit of wind and T&L in Ellicott City.
  12. they closed school early and now its sunny.
  13. A great day for my daughters 5th birthday at a farm
  14. Can one of the smart weather people explain why the low that ruins our weekend sits off the coast and appears to reverse and bring even more rain/clouds for the rest of next week?
  15. Looked like 3-4" from my cameras. Perfect when the ski resort is closed and docks are in the water .
  16. i picked the wrong day to drive the length of i81 in Virginia. what a cluster.
  17. Does the Euro support any of this? Gonna be cold and crappy spring break.
  18. After all the drama four seasoned programs make it to the finals, surprise surprise :). I'm sure they will be hyping the Duke-UNC rematch and can coach K get redemption from the last home loss. UNC and Kansas seemed to have the easiest path to the finals, we'll see what happens next week. I'm no fan of the teams from NC but have to admit these are the four teams that have played the best ball of the tourney.
  19. First ACC tourney win in school history and didnt let the ncaa shaft us out of march madness, wooot!
  20. My wife and kids came up friday evening. Said 70 was super slow between 270 merge and Hagerstown. Saw a bunch of people on the overpasses and trucks headed to Hagerstown. I think whatever is left of the convoy was headed back to base camp and slowed stuff down. The Friday prior we left at the same time and didnt hit any traffic.
  21. yea going up tomorrow morning to get a couple projects done. was gonna start work on the boat but wil enjoy one last snow weenie weekend! We have igloo reservations Saturday but probably wont be able to make it over there in the FWD sleigh
