  1. This FFW from NE VA shows how crazy heavy these storms can be when they sit over one area! Doppler radar indicated thunderstorms producing heavy rain across the warned area. Between 1 and 1.5 inches of rain have fallen. The expected rainfall rate is 3 to 5 inches in 1 hour. Additional rainfall amounts of 2 to 4 inches are possible in the warned area.
  2. Euro has another nasty heatwave for next week. Here's Friday, July 17
  3. Hope you're right. I still expect little rainfall through August with many days between 95-105. Nothing here yesterday. This evening looks blobby and hit or miss so have to get lucky
  4. I just went out around Prince Frederick and it's beat up - lots of trees down. A house a couple doors from us has two big pine trees down in their back yard. One smashed a recreation area they set up and another narrowly missed their fire pit. Another tree is down with the top partially in the street. I want more rain but keep the severe please! My AC (heat pump) wouldn't start when the power came back on last night and I was getting worried. I finally read that I needed to turn it off at the thermostat, the breaker box, and the switches by the unit in the basement and leave off for a half hour; some kind of system reset. That worked
  5. 0.89 from last night is the total so far and is probably similar for PF. Based on radar, I think they got a lot more down in the southern part of the county. Forecast has us dry here through tonight and more showers tomorrow. Other than last night, it has been extremely dry here.
  6. OK that was a rough go in central Calvert. We had some 50-60 mph gusts with a lot of branches down and a pine tree that snapped and partially fell on my new shed. Inside looks OK but not sure about the roof until I can get it off. Brief torrential rain, lots of close lightning and some pea-sized hail. We lost power for around an hour. Nearby Mesonet has 0.89. I hope there's a lot more in coming days Funny thing as more t-storms have been coming through and these people down here just kept right on shooting off fireworks and hooting LOL
  7. Good news is I finally got a flush hit. Bad news is there’s a pine tree on my brand new shed
  8. That would be four 100-plus so far with a long way to go. Wonder what the most in one summer was?
  9. Record high mins for DCA for July 2-4 are 79/80/80 so good chance to break dailies. All-time is 84 though
  10. Starting out at 80/74. In one part of Solomons, there's a huge cornfield right on the water. That local humidity must get fun
  11. Any threat to low max records? That stretch from July 22-24, 2011 at DCA was nuts with 83 84 84
  12. The real big heat arrives here tomorrow. You'll be in DCL with a grin on your face
  13. My point/click was 105 for Thursday and Friday, which I have never seen before! Now it's 102 which is probably more realistic If folks in OC MD for the week can get a S wind off the ocean, they are getting their money's worth! Maybe 89 or 90 for highs?
  14. Sounds nice! I gave up a few weeks ago and will try again in September. I want a natural looking lawn with lots of clover, a few wildflowers, etc, 0.20 final total for the event
  15. Here's my actual yard, including pathetic garden attempt
  16. Oh I think we hit exceptional for sure after July and Aug both less than 1.0 total rainfall and many 100-degree days
  17. Yup! I've been saying that along with continuing extreme drought, we'll have 15 or more 95-plus days, five 100-plus and one 105. I might be low on those!
  18. A big 0.2 for me, and the forecast has been walked back to just scattered light showers. That 0.2 is probably my total. Then we descend into 100-plus degree hell this week
  19. This is gonna be such a brutal summer. I'm thinking 15 or more 95-degree days, five 100s, and one 105. Very little rainfall too. I think many of us will be happy when fall gets here. Filtered sun and 80/67
  20. We'll see. Yesterday afternoon looked great on paper with LWX highlighting Calvert and St. Mary's for heavy rain potential, and I got a quarter inch. My area has a departure of -8 inches for the year and would need rainfall of 150% to 200% of normal for four straight months to recover.
  21. New thread would be good so I can track my next quarter inch deluge
  22. 0.9 total for the "event" and on the way to my prediction of 3 inches total for Jun-Jul-Aug combined, along with 15 or more days of 95-plus
  23. Just 0.23 for today and it looks to be done. Pretty disappointing given expectations
