  1. JB has been lamenting the euro mid range warmth bias forever now. Always talks about how it's unable to see cold in the mid-longer range.
  2. 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.
  3. BWI: 27.3” DCA: 12.1” IAD: 21.3” RIC: 8.5” SBY: 17.0”
  4. Would be cool if we could get a repeat of those thunder snow squalls that we saw last year.

    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.
  6. Heavy rain, cool and windy out right now. Feels like a proper fall storm for once.
  7. 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.
  8. First flakes, I mean sprinkles, here. ETA - just looked at the game cam at the cabin and it's 39F there.
  9. Apparently I was asleep at the wheel - I was not expecting the winds to be so intense today. Pretty raw out there.
  10. I ran the wood stove all weekend. Two weeks ago I looked at the latest electricity prices and decided I needed to order more firewood for the winter.
  11. It's been so long since we had a cold winter that even an average winter feels like an ice age.
  12. I can't even imagine how intense this board is gonna get when the day finally comes...
  13. My Mandevilla vine is covered in flowers now. Might bring it inside by the end of the week though.
  14. 40F right now at home in Calvert. Game cam sent me a pic at 7am showing 33F at the cabin which is the coldest I've seen so far there too.
  15. Not even then nowadays. Late May is when spring starts now.
  16. In Calvert I'm at about 100ft and the cabin is just over 3k ft.
  17. My game cam up at the cabin sent a pic at 1pm and the ambient temp there was 43F. Brrrr! 20F colder than down here in Calvert right now.
  18. What's the kuchera? In before the "what went wrong" thread request
  19. JB was already hinting at the Sandy analog in the euro week 3 window.
  20. 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.

    That must be it, I guess it pulled arctic air down out of Russia and cooled the surface temps on the Russian coast.
  22. A 5F temp drop followed by a change in the winds from SW to W? I'm tracking it...stay vigilant.

    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.
