AS a lurker from the mid-Atlantic and a former actuary, I found this write-up about Tony Crocker in 1997. https://www.soa.org/globalassets/assets/Library/newsletters/the-actuary/1990-99/1997/february/act-1997-vol31-iss02-bitowt-b.pdf

Woodholme reporting over 2 inches last night.

Thanks again. All of your suggestions look interesting. Which I had more time to play more. I am an avid, but not a good golfer, and all the courses look like they would be fun to play.

Thanks. I looked at Eastman earlier today as my relatives have a house by the lake and are ECA owners. Weird to see aeration in mid-May and not late March /early April. Will look into Lake Morey.

Question from a Marylander. End of July we will be in the Eastman / Dartmouth area for a few days. Wondering if any of you can recommend a decent golf course or two in that area? I may be able to get a tee time, via my club, at Manchester CC but that seems to be a good hour drive. Thanks

Around 3:45 some lightning and thunder in Pikesville followed by 15 to 20 minutes of decently heavy rain. Enough to chase everybody off the golf course for 20 to 30 minutes. Then sun came out and beautiful evening.

We definitely had rain last night in Lutherville- Timonium. Interesting in that yesterday, the course at my Club in Pikesville was very wet but last evening my grandson had a baseball game in the Roland Park area of Baltimore and the field was fairly dry.

Amazing in that the other four pitchers the Os used today ( which included two non-pitchers, have a higher ERA then Morton’s almost 11.

Should have added memories of 50+ years are tough, but I remember my first year at Penn State (70-71) I was disappointed in the amount of snow until the late season snowstorm, no memories of 71-72, 72-73 being little snow but several ice storms and 73-74 being a decent snow year.

This is interesting. I went to Penn State before the graph starts (from 70 to 74) and can remember three major snowstorms, spring of 71, Thanksgiving 71 ( which was a cold rain in central NJ) , and a huge storm in Feb 74, (again not major in central Jersey as I was home for the weekend but to get back to school I had to drive south (Penn Turnpike to Harrisburg rather then I 80).

After flickering off and on a couple of times earlier, power now out since 6:47

What to me is amazing is that besides the last three entrants on the table, there are only six entrants left who still have positive departures at all four sites. The closest WXDUDE64 has an overall positive departure of 24.4

And I moved from N Virginia in Feb 2021 to what I thought would be a slightly snowier climate. I should have known in that the day of the walk thru in Jan 2021 ( a Sunday morning) the plows were out in my old neighborhood, and the folks up in Lutherville wondered why I was wondering if the walk through was still on.

Thanks to you and Mappy. The other day Mays Chapel did reflect the north rather then the south. Much easier when we lived down by Mclean and Wolf Trap and were part of Ffx County.

Thanks!

I have a question. How do I find the dividing line between LWX's Southern Baltimore and Northern Baltimore? My googling did not come up with anything. I feel that in Lutherville-Timonium I am right on the dividing line

Light rain started with freezing on the mail box.

Just started wet snow in Lutherville.

CBS Sportsline had a non-positive article about Franking this morning. One key point was the drop in recruiting since 2022. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/whats-next-for-penn-state-after-orange-bowl-loss-it-starts-with-james-franklin-whos-1-18-vs-top-5-teams/

Kind of agree with what is being said in that Franklin seems to be a guaranteed 10 wins but not the big one. Its been 50 years since I graduated from there, and losing due to a turn over and then a score has to be one of the cruelist defeats. Just thought OT was guaranteed and then it is a crap shoot.

As some one who moved to Lutherville in early 2021 (settlement in Feb, moving vans a month later in March) from the Wolf Trap area and expected slightly more snow, this is depressing. In fact, I think the 1/3/2022 storm was a bit less here as I remember driving on the Balt beltway the next day and seeing a good bit more snow in Catonsville. Growing up in Central NJ, I will admit I was spoiled young by big snowstorms like the three in the 60-61 winter, the first of which started on a Saturday in early-mid December and closed schools for the entire week.

Flurries in Lutherville

Just saw a few lonely snowflakes in Lutherville-Timonium

A lot of damage in the Roland Park area of Baltimore. Daughter reported both Cold Spring and Kitterey blocked by trees down and part of Roland Ave flooded. Loss of power in many places.

Currently at Wintergreen to golf a few days. The mountain course is in as bad a shape as I have ever seen it ( been coming here every few years for 30+ years). Fairways and greens have numerous brown spots. Tees were destroyed by something over the winter. As you said, they had no rain for a month and then a few sprinkles last week. And now the mountain is fogged in.
