The Dec-09 storm was tops at my house in Calvert. Had 29". The February storm was second but it didn't produce as well as the December storm did around here.
There are so many random three letter indecis you can follow in climate that I'm convinced that any single one of them can show you any outcome when you fix that one and adjust the remaining ones. It's worse than the DoD.
We lease our land at the cabin to some neighboring hunters every year - it pays the property taxes and they give us about 50lbs of venison at the end of each season as well. They're always wondering why we don't hunt out there.
I tell them if I wanted to hunt I'd just do it from our home in Calvert. I could easily take ten deer just shooting from my kitchen window if it were allowed. They're everywhere.
Heavy rain all night here. A real drought buster. Not sure I've seen rain this heavy and sustained in a long time. Of course i'm in Detroit visiting my parents, not back home. I'm sure back in DC it's dry and boring.
What's going on with western pac water temps? They've fallen off a cliff in the past week or so. Was there a storm out there that churned the waters up or did some glacier just fall into the ocean? Warm blob is migrating east toward AK too.
