Here in Alexandria spent the day transplanting hydrangeas. Soil/clay is pretty saturated well below the surface, the stream across the intersection is back that comes from sump pumps up the street when the water table is up, and the river birch isn't yellow. All signs to me that the drought in my neighborhood is effectively over. Low sun angle and days of light rain/drizzle in the 60s doesn't hurt.

I'll still take 48 hours and 3 feet of winter over none.

2026 Mid-Atlantic Severe Storm General Discussion
somecallmetim replied to Kmlwx's topic in Mid Atlantic
I believe it, in Alexandria a couple miles away and thought some trees might come down with the gusts in the first batch. Said to my wife, who I tried to wake up to appreciate it , wow I bet those were at least 60. Reminds you of what the power of even a minimal hurricane is like. just Incredible light show too. Ironically the best one I had this year was visiting my sister in the Netherlands in June. I think it was the most lightning they'd ever recorded.- 2,562 replies

You can see the potential DC split fail scenario in the current radar.- 2,562 replies

Sure it's getting better, but I mean hey people, we got a Purple Alert. That's the Air Quality version of a Tornado or Hurricane Warning. We did it! Something we can all be proud of.

Ha, or the Kingdome in Seattle back in the day. Was in Seattle in the mid-90s when they had A-Rod, J Buhner, Ken Griffey Jr, and Edgar Martinez and would hit multiple home runs a game. Every time they'd set off fireworks, and the smoke would start settling down with each consecutive homer. By the late innings you were praying for good opponent relief pitching.

Almost the exact same here in Del Ray. Had a few flashes and a strike within a mile, and what sounded like a positive strike also nearby. Now just need 3 or 4 more of these (we were sitting at under .5 here for the month).

Yes, but may have something to do with me turning the AC off and opening the windows. That said, I noticed it before turning it off. Imagine has something to do with the indoor and outdoor temperature (at least in my house) being equal, thus the AC not running as often and therefore not dehumidifying at the same level?

Whereas I might view this as an upside.

Fair, but if we are talking social media isn't it more likely to be overhyped than under?
