Ugh! No fun! That had to be miserable for her on Friday! As I get older my excitement for severe weather is drastically waning! I only root for snowstorms now!
Got rocked. If anyone sees my patio umbrella let me know, last seen flying east towards towards the Potomac river. Large 4” diameter branch from our sweet gum tree currently in the front yard, neighbors basement flooded, all from .82” of rain in about 15 minutes. Wind gust estimated probably over 60mph. Miraculously power remains. @H2O how did you fair, looked more intense over your way.
Hello Afternoon Summer Thunderstorms! Been a long time! Sitting on the deck watching the storms roll in. Hoping for a direct hit, southern end of the line really perked up!
Winding down…obligatory deck pick…this is why daytime snow is superior! Family thinks I am nuts, but this is how I spend a snow day! (Luckily home alone today!)
78.3 for my high today
33.1 for the low (current temp)
nearing 1” of snow here south of old town Alexandria (heaviest snow rate of the winter currently) along the tropical shores of the Potomac….bonkers!
Tomorrow’s NWS forecast….i guess I missed the heavy drizzle watch? Maybe we just go to a straight warning, maybe the criteria for a warning is greater than 20% chance of precipitation. Whatever I can’t wait to measure my heavy drizzle in millimeters! Be careful out there everyone!
Areas of drizzle before noon, then isolated showers after 4pm. The drizzle could be heavy at times. Areas of dense fog before noon. Otherwise, cloudy, then gradually becoming mostly sunny, with a high near 65. Calm wind becoming east around 6 mph in the afternoon. Chance of precipitation is 20%.
Ivt parked over my house, about 2” total. Heaviest snow of the day. Probably about 1” per hour, if it does this for 6 more hours then boom! But it’s drifting slowly east it looks like. 32.5 so melting has slowed, roads are caved.
