Day 3 slights often turn to Day 1 mehs around here. 

I hope it does.  My son is graduation ceremony is at 6:00 at the AG center in Westminster in one of the exhibition pavillions.  

Not the best place to be if something rolls through.

we dont have a game again until next week. ill be hoping for rain before 4pm for you! 

We got one of the games in yesterday and another today.  :-)  

Happy that they are able to have playoffs for Spring sports. 

Ugh....daughter has a softball doubleheader at Westminster High at 4:00.  Looks like we would be very lucky to get game 1 in or even started.  

None yet in my neck of the woods.

Yeah, this is a ludicrous trend. I don't get it. And I love pickups, just not...this.

Okay, I laughed WAY too hard at this. These are "my people"...I have a handful of HS friends still living in my hometown in northern PA who would talk about, and long for, this vehicle in just this way. In any event, thanks for the find -- I've now pressed the "subscribe" button on the "Wayne County Lyfe" YouTube channel.   

Dude....they are CLUTCH!

And wtf is with this? Do they really think this looks good? Or they don't understand wheel offset?

It must be a purposeful thing, crazy as it seems. Literally every truck I see around here features this abomination. I remember when cops used to pull you over and hand out inspection tickets for shit like this.

Needs to be an all Black Dodge Ram ---->  

2nd Moderna shot today...then refereed 4 basketball games :-)

Trust me, I'll be rooting for them to win......just can't see it if Philly is healthy.

Will be very disappointed if Sixers-Wizards is not a 

 

I could see the wiz maybe getting 2 wins, but no more.  they have played well in the past months, but they still make way too many dumb mistakes and play no defense.  They also won't score more than 110 per game either.

You will turn 40?  Congrats!!!!

Yeah, Yeah....40 next year sounds great!

Happy Birthday H2O!!  Welcome to the 'seasoned citizens' club!

Len still started but Gafford played way more than against Boston.  5 blocks!  Hopefully he and Lopez get the majority of minutes vs the Sixers.

We need Len to Cover Embiid  and hack the crap out of him.  Maybe his 6th foul breaks a pinky and he is out for the remainder of the playoffs.   If he wins the MVP over Jokic, it will be a travesty....he missed 21 games, almost a third of the season.

Yeah thats their basic base sour.  Its not bad but if you really wanna get into the crazy stuff, gotta try the Out of Order series

Do you know if they have any Out of Order loose can onsite to buy?  I've seen their releases and have always wanted to try them, but wasn't sure if they had any at their shop post the release date.  I'm heading down to the beach this weekend and would stop by if there was a chance that they had any.

For sure!...You need to try RAR brewings "Out of Order" series.  They are the creme de la creme of sour beers.  They are limited release and difficult to get but worth trying. Many of them use pastry cream or even ice cream in them to give them a smoother and creamier taste. Some are truly dessert lol.  They have one out called dole whipped that literally tastes like the dole whipped soft serve they sell at disney world.  Ill for sure get you some! (if it all works out)

Stunts is good too!

Hey, I try haha thanks.

Haha, that sounds like a wonderful perk!

Thank you!

Yes....good luck!

I know we are not heading into a long term gas shortage, but if you are low on gas, don't wait until tomorrow morning to fill your tank.  Go out now and get it.

You’d know better than me because I wasn’t in this immediate area in ‘87. I was in Burtonsville and it was worse here in ‘04 than there in ‘87, though I remember in ‘87 that during a bike ride, a friend of mine inadvertently swallowed one. What a great ride that was. I almost fell off my bike laughing at him.

Dumb question here...how do you swallow a cicada?

They are huge!

I thought 1987 was much worse than 2004. 

I agree...luckily my neighborhood is less than 17 years old.  I'm not expecting to see any to emerge here, but i do  have plenty of woods nearby and am ready for the chorus. 

My daughter hates bugs and is already dreading softball practice and games.

Wondering what’s going on here. And there’s two other USAF tankers in the air nearby that I’ve checked in black.

I heard one fly over a little while ago and it's still making rounds......

Keep the hummingbird feeders away from feeders for other birds. Secondly hang the hummingbird feeders somewhere high enough that raccoons and squirrels can't get to it. Once those little critters get a taste of that sugar water the feeder will be empty the day after you fill it up....

Thanks!  I have them hanging from my porch  above the railing, so they are a good 10+ feet from the ground.  I have had some in the past when the flowers are bloomed, but expect them to come a little more regularly when I get the planting done. 

Thanks for all of the advice here.  I'll let everyone know when they do appear.

Replying to myself but also @WxUSAF - Gotta wonder if it's something related to VA-267. At least roughly if you follow on Google Earth an imaginary line running from the radome to the ESE along 267 and then continue that line - it would end up somewhere near/just south of Easton...maybe traffic?  

Traffic seems light now.  Could it be a crane working on the Metro Extension to Dulles?  Not sure how far along that is, but it was projected to be completed this summer.   It would also make sense as to why it is not there all of the time.

Not sure why LWX is down, but for the record -- I don't care for the new NWS radar. It takes forever to load and I just don't like how it displays. I don't mean to sh*t on others' hard work, as I know they had to replace the legacy radar with something, but....

I now generally prefer to use Windy.com for radar if I'm at the laptop or, of course, Radarscope on mobile.

I totally agree. I remember when @Jebman first brought the new radar up as a bad upgrade earlier this year. 

You also don't get as much detail on their maps either.  The returns seem to be in a grid, so you don't see any smoothing or contouring of where the actual rain lines are.  Kind of resembles Minecraft. :-(
