  1. We need Brood X in southern Maryland- I'm thinking of bringing a crate of these back to become squirrel food populate my yard for 2038. I need to head out to Illinois for spring 2024- they're in the eclipse totality path, then they have brood XIII and XIX syncing up for the first time in 221 years.
  2. Went with my wife and kids to Glen Burnie to visit family- the shells are everywhere and the adults are emerging and crawling around on trees. The song is noticeable but not too loud yet. The kids loved playing with them! We are all obsessed with frozen water and magic bugs that appear every 17 years.
  3. Do the brood maps shift over time? For example, I know brood II is basically gone from Southern MD. Based on what people are saying (here and elsewhere) it seems like the numbers around the Baltimore area could be dwindling too.
  4. @Always in Zugzwang Yeah I think a certain poster may have ingested too much of this fungus back in 2004. It would explain a lot.
  5. Any reports from AA county? Thinking of driving the kids up Sunday- hopefully the music has started.
  6. So much for everyone being so worried about the kids lol We’ll be sitting the summer out anyway, oh well.
  7. I have greater odds of getting struck by lightning while holding a winning Powerball ticket in one hand and a winning Mega Millions ticket in the other, than Southern Maryland does of ever having a drought in my lifetime.
  8. I was thinking: since 2004 there has been a huge amount of development in the mid-Atlantic. I wonder if that will affect the population overall, but it's too soon to know.
  9. There’s clouds to my north and a light blob on radar, my guess is it blew from there. Was only light drizzle for about a minute. Multiple people felt it.
  10. I’m getting light rain but it’s a blue sky overhead.
  11. Happy Mother's Day to all our moms! This is also my son's birthday so we have two celebrations going on at once. I took a picture of these clouds because I've never seen this before- looks like perfect cylinders in the sky stacked next to each other with perfect straight lines in between (that's my best description). What causes this?
  12. I agree, IMBY has flipped back to more normal rain events over the last few weeks, and it appears to be staying that way. That’s great news!
  13. Keep it chilly- we have June through September to do our usual non-stop torch, so I'll take what I can get.
  14. I think that Brood II over SOMD is extinct- I don't know of anyone who saw any here in 2013. (If someone here did, let me know)
  15. This is definitely late vs. 2004. I finished finals the second week of May 2004 at UMBC and they had already been swarming around everywhere. People I know in central MD, southern PA and western OH haven't seen much of anything.
  16. This is getting like winter- always ten days away.
  17. This may be the first time I've ever seen a red flag warning, a high wind warning, a severe thunderstorm warning and a freeze warning all on the same LWX map simultaneously.
  18. We do wind really well in this region (along with heatwaves and heavy rains). We certainly don’t do anything else good though.
  19. So I went from frost to 90 in four days.
  20. 12z Euro took ‘em all away, sorry.
  21. If I see any snowflakes fall from the sky today IMBY somehow, I will raise my winter grade from C- to C.
  22. J&J is definitely the one I would choose if I were to get the vaccine, for the exact reason you listed.
  23. Just a few other interesting things I noticed: @nw baltimore wx @Newman and @MillvilleWx all got RIC exactly right. @NorthArlington101 got IAD exactly right, and just missed BWI by 0.1" @olafminesaw still managed to make it to 4th. @North Balti Zen would have been the winner easily... if there was no IAD in the contest. No one got BWI exactly right.
  24. Imagine 97-02 without that one week in January 2000...
