They are here!

I don’t like sudden loud noises, so those things aren’t my friend when they are on a tree next to me and decide to zoom off and fly right by my face.

18/14/5

I think we may see a few more storms during the summer than in recent years, possibly giving us a taste for peak season time.

BWI: 99

DCA: 97

IAD: 99

RIC: 101

It’s weird... hopefully the AEMI model does what it’s showing... /s

If you want a giggle, look up “Beans in weird places”.

It is not really possible to go back to school and distance from others. The hallways are packed, stairs, no way. 

That system in the eastern pacific 90E is really pretty.

Severe Thunderstorm Warning now...

This may be interesting! Let’s see how it goes.

Eastern Pacific has its first(?) orange 30-40% chance of development. 
That is all. I just found it interesting.

It’s gotten gustier in richmond, but that’s about it. The clouds have arrived, but I don’t expect anything but a brief shower if that. It looks as if they will go to my north and south. Then, more waiting for the next interesting event...

I hope many follow you.. this is great news for those of us that might just be washing our hands more often - no crowds, cheaper prices.. not to mention these places will be cleaner than they have ever been by a mile. Can't wait!

Cheaper prices? Won’t some of those places possibly be required to raise the prices to stay alive with reduced business?

Maybe I just don’t know how money works!

During the past 40 years, I have never had two very low snowfall winters consecutively.  Something to look forward next year.

I don’t think it’s possible to get less than 1.5” again next year. At least it better not be possible.

Wind has picked up in RIC now, gusty, but other than that, not much else. Guess we’ll be back next weekend Possibly?

I don’t like living here anymore. Some magic happens every time that causes cool weather to avoid us.

Are the wind gusts supposed to pick up at all? It’s been calm still down in Richmond.

Also, Tornado Warning for New Kent County and Charles City County

Does it seem to be nearing the end for Central Virginia / RIC? I guess that would leave us with gusty winds if anything?

So far nothing. Rain. There was a STW to the west (Oilville, Powhatan) but it had expired.

I guess it’s better than having no power...

Did I miss anything between the time I woke up at 6:45, (No strong rain yet from what I can remember) to 7:30ish? It’s been pretty much a rain shower here so far from what I can tell. No thunder.

Would love to here from some professionals specifically talk about RVA. Just following SPC stuff right now and all the really good folks on the DC severe thread. 

I’m here. I don’t quite remember the last time they’ve used wording like this... They only guess I would have is when the remnants of that tropical storm came through last fall...

I'd be shocked if transmission from cook's make up any significant portion of the new cases at this time.

Yeah, I thought it was somewhat difficult to catch through food. If that changes, it wouldn’t be too great.

I'd feel much better if I was sitting down in Richmond or elsewhere in SEVA for this. I'll track it until we fail...but I'm just not sure this is going to be a win for us. Certainly a low probability thing up near mappyville. 

I’ll share the weather with you all from Richmond... somehow...

Have you been to Lowes recently?

That’s probably just people buying a new plunger to get rid of this excess TP. The old plunger got to difficult to use.

Some storms arriving in a little bit down here in Central VA. I wasn’t expecting that this early. We’ll see how it goes.

In the Special Weather Statement, I like how they specifically told the people at the hospitals nearby to take shelter, as well as everyone else. They told people at the hospitals to take shelter.
