  1. Did better in the rain department with the overnight cells than the squall line. 2.08” total. 3”+ over the last three days.
  2. Wind was probably better down by Woodbridge. Mostly rain and lightning here. Gutters are clogged and now I have a pool of water near the foundation, which is what you always want.
  3. The sounding is on Wyoming’s site. http://www.weather.uwyo.edu/cgi-bin/sounding?region=naconf&TYPE=GIF%3ASKEWT&YEAR=2018&MONTH=05&FROM=1412&TO=1500&STNM=72403
  4. RUC (maybe HRRR, not labeled well) via our new favorite Euro site
  5. I'm driving up to NY state for work tomorrow. So, they'll probably get screwed and it'll hit here. You're welcome.
  6. Yeah, I have to get on something like that.
  7. Thanks. Yeah, we have two 4x8’, one 4x4’, one 2x8 (raspberry bushes), and two 2x4’. It is pretty convenient.
  8. After 9 years of deer having their way with our garden, I say come at me bro.
  9. And now we are sitting on the tarmac at Denver. Stupid storms couldn’t wait until later.
  10. I’m supposed to land at IAD at 4pm. I’m on a United flight. I presume this is the last time I’ll talk to you folks. It was a good ride.
  11. July 4th was memorable because of the holiday, but the "cold" snap later in July was even more impressive. Low of 48 at IAD on 7/30/14 after a high (no precip!) of 74 on the 29th.
  12. We’ve had so many really light events that it didn’t dawn on me that we were headed back under climo. Mowed the lawn, mostly to pick up the late winter leaves, and there was much more dust than I expected. Soil a few inches down seems fine, though.
  13. Interesting. I found Sandy to be pretty boring inside the DC Beltway. The only memorable thing about it was the extremely odd nature of the event and the coverage of things elsewhere. The 2018 March windstorm wrecked two houses within a few blocks of my house and had us w/o power for the better part of a day (no outages with Sandy).
  14. This is a tricky question because it depends on whether you view it in a IMBY sense. It is also difficult to compare a distinct event (severe weather) to a climate-scale event (heat wave). Top distinct event: Derecho IMBY distinct event: TS Lee remnants Climate event: 2010-12 heat waves
  15. Yeah, go with sod. There is just so much care that goes into seeding. And weeds are so much more prolific in seeding areas. Basically all you have to do with sod is water it.
  16. That's interesting, we haven't had any problem with cone flowers. Hostas are basically just deer food. They also love cucumber plants for some reason.
  17. @CobaltI saw in one of the other threads that you found the web archive version of the old board. Back years ago, when the server was still active, I had copied a bunch of the links over for our big events. But when the server went down for good, the links went dead. If you, or someone else, wanted to somewhat recreate what I had done, that would be cool. There are some gems in there. k
  18. Nov. - 2.08" Dec. - 0.80" Jan. - 1.03" Less than 4" over the last three months. Not good.
