Mrs.J

Decided to take a walk this morning along the C&O Canal park. Temp was just right with a slight breeze.

The radar algorithm is nicely split between biological scatterers and large hail.

 

 

Ok I just looked. What is all of that showing up?

Looking to do more power today than yesterday. Threw in last year to compare. And this is with one Micro Inverter not reporting. New one is on its way. 

Back in England today. Drizzly mist and 65 here. 

Heading down to The Anthem tonight for a concert. Looks like we may catch some of the rain forecasted down there.

Wow nice hit!  That's more rain than I've had in seven weeks.

Not a drop and I don't expect any rain here for a very long time yet - maybe by mid-Oct

After only a 1.21” total for August this one day in early September was really needed.

Just got clipped again. Frederick has done well with this event so far.

Yeah it all stayed to the South of downtown. Went warned just after it passed me. 

Got 1.12” out of that nice bit of rain. At times could barely see out the windows. 

Big puffy fall clouds this afternoon. While sitting out on the deck spotted what I thought was just a dying branch but after a closer look it is just the fall colors starting early.

Can't argue about today's weather.  Sunny, blue skies with a little breeze at times...got a nice road "on a mountain bike" ride in earlier.

Moved the younger Ms. J back up to school in PA today. At 9 am it was 57 up there. So nice to lug all of her dorm bags in. 

Fall just rolled in over here. The clouds look like a late September early October sky.

IMO, this summer wasn't that hot.

I am on a migraine medication with a side effect of being hotter in heat. It was unbearably hot at times. 

Surprise little shower line coming in. Had to rush out and cover the deck furniture. Had not used it for awhile but yesterday was glorious.

Looks like some drier air is slowly making it's way into the region as Erin pulls away...maybe we can get some breaks in the clouds by early evening.  4 days straight of this...it's time for a pattern flip.

You called it. Getting some sun over here. Pleasant out and will eat dinner on the deck. 

Out early this morning. One word,

GLORIOUS!

Definitely needed the rain here. I’m expecting 0.5”+ from that. Looks like Moco is in line next. Will be interesting to see if it holds.

I picked up .37” out of that. Line is still throwing off thunder on the back of it.

Think I caught a wind core here. It’s coming down. Very little T&L though

Yeah the part coming through here is pretty week. Mainly just rain and I can hear thunder off to the W, which looking at radar makes sense as Jefferson looks to be getting hit. The stuff in Jefferson and Walkersville looks pretty intense. Will take all the rain I can get though no matter how light. 

Tail end of that line coming through just now. Mainly rain and some wind.

Only one clap of thunder here. It rained briefly, but no flush hits recently. Sun is popping back out, so maybe that’ll energize things with that trailing batch near Hagerstown.

I picked up 0.23” out of it. Yeah watching that batch up on the county line and NW Fred Co. Does not look to be moving much south. 

Oh wow happed to look outside and it is raining here. Quite the surprise I mean I saw that it was getting a bit darker out but that has happened so many times before I ignored it. 

Was being a taxi for the younger Ms J for her dog walking jobs. Got caught in that blob back about 20 min ago on the NW side of Frederick. Military Rd. right along Ft. Detrick was a pond. Got her back to her day sit and then looked at 15 and decided it was not worth it so took surface roads back home.

Hardly any rain here…becoming very reminiscent of last summer and probably ‘23 as well.

I got lucky today with that line that popped up. 0.33” at home while I was driving around. Much better than the 0.01” I got yesterday.

Better than my T on the north side of town

Wow you usually fair better than I do down here. 

That being said my FIL is coming up next week. He is the one who helped me dig up a small street side patch of dead grass and roll sod down back in April when they were here. He will arrive seeing that it has yet again a patch of dead grass. 

Anyone want my .01 I got today.

Gorgeous humidity today. Looks like a swath of rain to the west, but will it get here? That’s a tall order based off the current steppe conditions.

I brought the Catio inside. So you can curse me for jinxing our chances here in Frederick Co. 

Dew points back up on my station. 83/77 dew 75. My month rain fall is sitting at 0.06”. Grass has been done for a while, but the trees really tried to hold on. Seeing more just in the last week dropping yellow leaves and just generally looking stressed.
