    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.

    First flakes, I mean sprinkles, here. ETA - just looked at the game cam at the cabin and it's 39F there.

    Apparently I was asleep at the wheel - I was not expecting the winds to be so intense today. Pretty raw out there.

    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.

    It's been so long since we had a cold winter that even an average winter feels like an ice age.

    I can't even imagine how intense this board is gonna get when the day finally comes...

    My Mandevilla vine is covered in flowers now. Might bring it inside by the end of the week though.

    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.

    Not even then nowadays. Late May is when spring starts now.

    Bastardi saw it

    In Calvert I'm at about 100ft and the cabin is just over 3k ft.

    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.

    JB was already hinting at the Sandy analog in the euro week 3 window.

    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.

    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.

    Socked in with clouds still here. Though it does seem like the sky is a bit lighter. No sun yet though.

    Closest cocorahs has me at 0.85" since Saturday. Not bad.

    I did hear some moderate sounding rain at one point last night outside my window while in bed. I guess that counts for something.

    Up at the cabin at 3k ft we hardly had any color. Leaves just turned brown and fell off. Drought I guess. Down here in the lowlands we haven't really had any change yet except the tops of my tallest sweetgum trees. Our tulip trees are still green here with just a few leaves turning yellow here and there.

    I've been away from the models today - when do the first rains start? Asking for a friend.
  24. IronTy
    I woke up to a wet yard, apparently it rained sometimes before dawn. Bummer as I was planning on cutting the grass and doing yardwork before the storm.
  25. IronTy
    So either I'm gonna get 3"+ of rain per the NAM or it's just gonna be cloudy per the ICON. We are so back.
