    Well said. Josh makes a valid point about feb2015 but if you're going to have record cold waves you expect them to happen in Feb. Just like you'd expect August for record heat. You never really think of the transition months like March as having such an extreme temp departure for so long. I mean March is still considered Winter and yet we had such crazy heat for that time of year.

    drought begets droughts.....and that area is right over Hocking Hills and Wayne National Forest which is the foothills of the Appalachians. We need a wholesale pattern shift or help from tropical systems or it's going to get ugly when the leaves start dropping. Speaking of tropical systems.... wasn't this suppose to be an epic season? Granted we still have a month and a half of prime season but I don't think anyone was expecting it to be this slow going into September.

    Temperature-wise, I still think the most impressive run was Morch 2012, with Michigan having the most impressive departures. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't many places in central and northern MI have temps well into the 90's?

    If this continues, southeast OH into WV is going to be tee'd up for one hell of a wildfire season this fall.

    in fairness I did read a lot of hype about an early, hot dry start to summer. LC was constantly beating the Morch drum all winter. It seems like we haven't been able to keep a true heat wave locked in for quite awhile. Instead it's 2-4 days of above and then a break to equally anomalous lower temps. Kinda wouldn't mind a good ole fashioned shirt soaking lemonade drinking hankerchief wiping heat wave.

    2am is 8 hours away. Who cares what’s happening at 2am, we need to worry about what’s happening in 3 hrs(central Ohio). Hard to imagine much weakening is going to happen in that time…probably the opposite.

    One other thing about kfc, they have the best damn cole slaw ever. I don't usually like mayonnaise-based slaw, but theirs's is awesome. I literally stopped there once for lunch, went thru the drive-thru and ordered 2 family-sized slaw tubs, (I was kinda embarrassed so I ordered 3 drinks so they wouldn't think it was all for me). I ate both entire tubs. Next day was brutal though....felt bad for my wife.

    here we go again

    Lol....I get it. My son-in-laws parents live up in extreme NW Ohio. Every time they come down here they never miss a chance to go there. I'm more of a KFC fan myself

    I don't know what it is about that place. I have one about 5 mins from me and I never go. It's fcking chicken fingers with a dip that's basically ranch and ketchup mixed.

    That's what I've heard. His balls descend when he logs on and ascend when he logs off.

    You're not doing Egypt? j/k, but that would be pretty damn cool too.

    I know it's not in our sub but I don't ever recall seeing a day 6 30% threat....chasers must be drooling

    Totally lucked out. Blue sky with some wispy cirrus Had 45 seconds of total where you could look without glasses. It sounds obvious but it got much darker than I expected probably because I had only seen partial eclipses in the past and always expected those to be darker. Crickets started chirping street lights came on and you could hear people cheering in the distance. Bucket list checked without having to leave my yard.

    thanks, one more sheep to tie up and was able to score a fresh chicken spleen this morning.... only snag is I've gained some weight since 2017 so my robe and hood is a little tight.
  16. buckeye
    awesome info....thank you. So according to my exact gps location, I'll have 100% totality for 48.4 seconds. That's good enough for me. Cooler in the back yard it is!
  17. buckeye
    1200 feet inside line of totality. Still debating whether to head a few miles nw or just get drunk in my backyard.

    with my luck the damn thing will defy all laws of astro-physics and trend NW. That's how we roll in central Ohio

    Kind of damned if you do…damned if you don’t. I thought ILN did a good job with balancing everything, their discussions were very matter of fact and included the mention of what could impede the threat.

    In June of 1990 a flash flood from a thunderstorm killed 26 people in shadyside ohio. The nws was ravaged for not having any kind of watch up. For what seemed like the rest of that summer…every time storms were in the forecast they issued flood watches. It was definitely cya. Maybe a little of that today as well?
  21. buckeye
    Yep, it held
  22. buckeye
    yea, it was frustrating. When we got that clearing around 11:30 I thought it's game on. Then that garbage rolled in around 2 and I think that was the nail in the coffin. One cool thing, the sky has been a show this evening. Strange cloud formations, colors, and the most amazing rainbow I've ever seen. I'll upload a pic when I get a chance.
  23. buckeye
    yup... ingredients are there, let's see what gets baked
  24. buckeye
    so far things seem discombobulated. The blue skies here are now clouding up as some garden variety showers and thunderstorms get ready to move thru. After that it looks like another period of clearing/drying and then we wait and see if things start growing out of the southern IL/w. KY area. Not super impressive yet.

    HRRR not exactly stellar. Where is all the convection showing up on radar in sw IN?
