Just got back from our pool where one of my kids works with rookie swimmers. Was death sitting there waiting. 
 

Also, can I be your friend?  Sweet back yard. Willing to provide beer 

LOL!  Of course!

Spent the morning walking the dog and watering grass and plants…pretty gross, 90, with a DP of 76, ick, heat index just cracked 100 here. Now it’s pool maintenance time…well watching the robot do the hard work.  Just another 48 minutes until I feel ok cracking a beer.

0 fer this week with rain.  A whopping .08, was hoping for free irrigation!  At least water is cheaper than gas, but still… 

So the main show is the stuff coming off Lake Michigan?  Where is that complex in Ohio going?  Sorry have craptacular cell service at a swim meet and can’t access the models or radar ATT.  Though I keep getting alerts that lightening is 14-17 miles and closing.  In fort hunt, va.

Appetizer? Toast here at this swim meet in the next hour? Frickin miserable

Beautiful day. High of 81. Currently 78. Comfortable evening upcoming. Might be firepit time. Different story the next few days.

It’s a pool to firepit day for us!  Gorgeous evening.

Should have I watered the grass and flowers?  That is the question!  Neighborhood just cleaned up after last Monday, so only rain please!

Ugh, hi today 94.6, wtf. And it was mostly cloudy until about 3 today…right now still feels like 101!

Crazy Hail!  Belle Haven along the GW parkway, probably nickel size!

Wow .45 here so far, maybe a few more rounds inbound. At least my car is back to white instead of yellow!  #winning!

Yuletide Camellia bloomed a little late this year, but peak bloom corresponded to snow!

Wow went from heavy sleet to snow globe with big flakes here near Mt. Vernon, mulch insta white.

Pounding sleet all of a sudden, 35.9

Yea, advisory up for close in Metro!

Light snow tv and 35.  Smoking a pork butt for some big deal on tv later today, at least it didn’t have the nerve to be raining on me while setting up the smoker.

Todays high 66.6.  Its going to snow again,  at least according to the devil!

Back to pixie dust, but everything is white…#winning  

Gorgeous big dendrites falling from the sky.  Prettiest flakes of the season!

Mulch and grass whitening, very nice flake sizes.  Want the sun to go down to loose the radiation, but the light makes it easy to watch snow tv

Full on snow globe, yellows incoming…if only it was 25 vs 35

Just spent the past hour running errands between your neck of the woods, over to Rose Hill/Franconia area, and back home to Hayfield/Belvoir area. Despite what radar's selling, I ain't buying....didn't see one flake, but it's encouraging that you and @H2O did. Currently 41/24.

You have to squint really hard, plus do a couple shots of vodka…then you see them!

Extreme SE Fairfax county death band setting up…can only pray.  42 but with light snow….How long til the roads cave?

What are the guesses on the new solution the 18z GFS shows?  Im going to make a safe bet:  It won't be the superstorm blizzard like 12z.
