    9:30 and my backyard station is at 90. Just went out to water my deck plants and front garden. The stuff out front is very heat and drought tolerant but want to give it a fighting chance.

    We have a 3 story TH. Have found that the house fan running all day keeps the 3rd floor cool. With the help of ceiling fans in all the bedrooms.

    97.3 feels like 109.3 in my corner of Frederick Co. All house blinds have been closed since yesterday so feels like we are living in a cave. But has allowed us to keep the air con at 72.

    Well crap! Sitting down in VA at the horse show and the Emergency Alert tune comes over WAMU for that tornado warning. Freaked me out as they have the incorrect information of location. Said North of Ballenger Creek near Harry Grove Stadium. My house is just south of that and reception has been spotty all day down here. So radar would not load up. Called kid at home to see if she got an alert. She said no. Told her about the warning and she looked at radar to see that the warning is down near Urbana. Way to give a mama an anxiety incident only to find out she is fine. Although looking West over the mountains down here it could get interesting.

    Currently sitting down at Upperville Horse Show in VA and we have a decent shower going on. What does it look like for down here this afternoon?

    My Dew pt is 73 currently. Just went out to organize my car for a horse show tomorrow. It is yuck out.
  7. Mrs.J
    Why did we not have a watch?

    One of my husbands coworkers lives in Darnestown and took this.

    WUSA9 has shown videos from over in Leesburg. And a photo sent in from Owings Mills with three needle funnels extending down.

    Southern Frederick Co looks interesting. South of Adamstown. Juat got warned.

    Ok had to check here. One of my weather apps had me in the Tornado Warning. Oldest Ms. J came down as I was making dinner and asked me if I saw the weather info. Weather Network is alerting my area but after looking we are not under the warning.

    Glorious out this morning. As the younger Miss J graduated last week she has all the time to ride. The horses are loving this weather.

    Edit to eat my words as a cell popped up right over me.
  14. Mrs.J
    And a nice healthy cell popped up right over me. Nice thunder and soaking rain.

    North Fred Co seems to get most of it usually. We are currently looking at clouds down here.

    Was taking a nap, busy last week. And woke to this text and the sun. Looks like some stuff is already bubbling near Martinsburg.

    Quote the lightning show to my west. Currently sitting under a severe thunderstorm warning, but looking at the line I can see the natural Ballenger Creek split coming. Glad I watered my plants this evening.
  18. Mrs.J
    I don’t know. It was one line cell and it was not very big. Before it got the lightning was pretty prolific. I had no clue that the wind would hit that bad. But we have a tree line right behind our house and the back of the house got hit with small sticks. The deck was covered in leaves and twigs/sticks when I went out the next morning .
  19. Mrs.J
    Yeah I was watching it take a straight on path to my area. The size of it I just expected a quick normal garden variety cell. Was so wrong. I enjoyed it
  20. Mrs.J
    Had another one skirt just to the South of me about 25 min later. Caught the North edge of it and got more thunder and lightning a some more rain. Pretty tame compared to that earlier one. For such a small cell it was more intense than some of the lines that have come through here. Got .41” from the two, .30” was just from the first one.
  21. Mrs.J
    Wow this thing is whopping a punch The wind is crazy. Lot of lightning before then when the cell hit the wind driven rain was loud. Our bedroom faces west so got the brunt of it.

    When we lived in Los Angeles for a couple of years we got introduced to June gloom. Happens when the marine layer pushes in and does not burn off.

    The weekend patterns have been yuck for sports. The younger Ms J was supposed to have a horse show all weekend. It was postponed for the safety of the horses and riders. They show in rain but not pouring rain that would slick up the footing.
  24. Mrs.J
    Thanks for this. We both have current passports and are looking to travel. And Mr. J is toying around with early retirement. Got to get through college tuition first though.

    Today ends our families time in K-12 education. The youngest Miss J. was dropped off for the last day of school for Seniors here in Frederick Co. The front entrance was pranked out and she informed us that there was a beach party in Main Street, what they call their main hall, with a giant sand box. This fall our house will be an empty nest. The oldest Ms. J will be jetting off to study abroad in the Czech Republic for film school. And the youngest Miss J. will be off to college. She is Autistic so we will defiantly be there for her, but she has grown so much since getting her diagnosis that I am finding myself confident that she will do well. For those here with younger kiddos they don't lie when they say it goes fast. Elementary school for us went the slowest, but once the upper grades hit time will fly. Next week is graduation and it will officially be all over. And Mr. J and I have realized that we have raised two pretty amazing kids. We don't look at it as the end of an era, we are looking forward to see where they go! Oh and of course we decided that we need to "pick up" the overseas kiddo because Prague in December with Christmas markets just happens to be a place we want to visit.
