  1. Outflow boundaries from the Maryland storm and the one down by fredriksburg about to collide…could be fun!
  2. I thought the same thing about my pws,but the similar obs in there area definitely lend credence to it being legit. What I don’t understand is I am close to the river (less than 300 yards) not exactly an urban area, lots of big mature trees, and yet still hit 106! Here is my run over the last 4 days. July 1-103 July 2- 105 Max HI of 125!!! July 3-104 July 4-106 with all that said, my PWS definitely runs warm in the winter!
  3. just broke my weather station 5 year all time record. 106! Good news though, HI=air temp, so better than July 2 when I had a HI of 125. Finally I can really say…ya, but it’s a dry heat!
  4. DCA: 98, 100, 104, 100 BWI: 98, 100, 102, 100 IAD: 98, 100, 103, 99 SBY: 98, 100, 101, 100 RIC: 100, 100, 104, 100 Total Rain: 0.15
  5. I am pretty sure the heat will stick to the pavement, no matter the sun angle.
  6. 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!
  7. Yeah spectacular sunset! Brighter to the east, so strange! Reflecting off the storms out that way!
  8. 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.
  9. Gust front no joke! Both umbrellas down.
  10. 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!
  11. .76 last night, 1.24 for the week! Most precip in a week probably since snowcrete for here!
  12. Just got home, .45 in the bucket! I feel like I just won MegaMillions!
  13. I am going to declare this the nicest day of spring so far. 72, not a cloud in the sky, gentle breeze at times pollen seems nil…perfect!
  14. 32 on the dot along the former, and sure to be future tropical shores of the Potomac.
  15. 91…the AC purring like a kitten!
  16. Godspeed on your final journey Roger.
  17. Yea. Here too, Weird. Smoke from somewhere?
  18. 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!)
  19. 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!
  20. 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%.
  21. 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.
  22. Starting to rip fatties. 50/50 rain snow at elevation 35’. Temp down to 35.6
  23. 36.9….started the white rain part of the program. Progress…
