MN Transplant

1.70" for the past three days, which I'm very happy about. But ~3 miles away they are sitting at 4.5", so a little jealous.

93.6 to 71.4, so the same 22 degrees. I cracked my window to listen to the storm and now I've left it open.

Approaching an inch and ~1.6" for the past three days. Sorely needed.

DCA got the severe criteria. G to 58

Wind didn't really deliver here, but the pounding rain and nearby CGs are fun.

Pretty

Not unhappy with the radar right now. Headed outside to take a look.

LWX is giving out warnings like candy

I put myself through a bit of torture yesterday and listened to over 2 hours of the school board meeting. It was a bit jarring because the Fairfax Co. health department was apparently unaware that the superintendent was going to make that decision. The Superintendent leaned heavily on national and regional numbers, while ignoring that northern VA is doing pretty well. That was a little frustrating. However, I'm guessing that behind the scenes they are getting an indication from the teachers that there are going to be a lot of retirements/leave of absences if the hybrid model goes forward right now.

Every summer night should be like this

Boundaries flying around. Hopefully it initiates stuff that gets more of the rest of us.

98 BWI, 97 DCA/IAD

Yeah, that's really good.

What's the Post station at?

That's eventually how the 84 degree low record will fall

Highs as of 2pm. 98 at BWI, 96 at IAD, 95 at DCA.

Embrace the river. Love the river.

Ok, let's see how this works. We are currently sitting at 84.0 at DCA for the month. That would tie for the 2nd hottest month ever. Tracking this out based on NWS forecasts and model blends puts us just under 84.0, which would place July 2020 third. However, I'm skeptical of the lows that the NWS are using for DCA and we will see if the cool-down at the end of the month actually transpires.

Yes. I don't know what it is, but the fireflies were late and the butterflies were late. Very odd.

As you said, it is hard to hit 100. NAM nest has late afternoon storms today, tomorrow and Thursday. Hopefully everyone gets a shot at one.

That's why the rain came. You should know that by now!

The Annandale/W. Springfield/Burke area has been the good spot for storms today. Still getting thunder and lightning to my south.

Two really loud CG nearby. And some very welcome rain.

So, BWI 100, DCA and IAD 99. On a relatively cloudy day.
