  1. Drove up to Glen Burnie today to see them- southern edge starts around Lothian, first deathband was in Harwood- about a dozen splattered on the windshield. One hitched a ride for several miles and flew off unharmed. Glen Burnie was really loud around the woods, lots of flyers but not as many as 2004 IMHO We all enjoyed seeing them one last time though.
  2. Pretty good storm here- the Southern MD rain magnet that was installed in 2018 is still operational.
  3. Calvert doesn't get II anymore either My dad lives in Delta, PA, and doesn't have any either- he's right within the border of this map. I think the coverage is shrinking.
  4. Heading back up with the family to see them one last time this Saturday, hopefully I don't miss the peak.
  5. You’d lose your mind with my kids then.
  6. The first 13 seconds of this keeps looping in my head over and over while I watch the meme stock tickers
  7. We're expecting another baby boy in early October, and just found out the name we had picked is actually on the hurricane names list this year. It's pretty far down the list so it's possible to be a hit here right around that time.
  8. Slightly off-topic, but NHC should just officially move the Atlantic season start from June 1 to May 15 to match the Pacific. Seems like every year has a May system now. I don't know if there's a reason for this- climate change or just some multi-decade oscillation?
  9. I think BWI got a record lowest max? 57 for the high today vs 58 record in 1915?
  10. It’s been great weather for planting a tree actually- ground is soaked and easy to dig, temperature feels a lot more comfortable than yesterday (when I actually needed a hat and gloves!). I’ll take upper 50’s and drizzle vs planting in upper 80’s and sun anytime.
  11. I've gotten 2.21" of drought rain from this system so far. Still drizzling, though it's not on radar.
  12. Same ol' pattern reemerging. 1.7" since yesterday and still raining hard.
  13. It already flipped back tonight IMBY. Even 2018 had that 2-week dry spell in early July in between the deluges. I think droughts are impossible in the Mid-Atlantic in the new normal.
  14. Heard there was a dry slot Monday as we transitioned from WAA to Coastal Cicadas.
  15. 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.
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. @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.
  19. Any reports from AA county? Thinking of driving the kids up Sunday- hopefully the music has started.
  20. So much for everyone being so worried about the kids lol We’ll be sitting the summer out anyway, oh well.
  21. 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.
  22. 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.
  23. 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.
  24. I’m getting light rain but it’s a blue sky overhead.
