87storms

That’s been kind of a theme…northern sections have done a little better this year. I’ve been on the southern edge of several events.

Judging by radar, Frederick is maintaining its status as a 2026 precip magnet. Good to see. Could have used a storm on top of me while hiking near Lake Mead earlier. Vegas heat is the real deal.

Think Vegas is gonna outdo DC temps today…starting to get spicy again. Hopefully you all get some storms out of the heat wave, at least. Glad I moved my balcony furniture in…not doing so my last trip was not ideal.

Yea I definitely didn’t have “Maryland hotter than Vegas” on my bingo card. There’s heat wave and then there’s thick, dense heat wave (you know it when it happens) which it sounds like is occurring there today and tomorrow.

That’s rough lol. Looks like I’m missing a highly legitimate heat wave. Not the fake stuff.

Dang, I thought it wasn’t supposed to hit 100 until tomorrow. Gonna get spicy in Vegas by the weekend…already getting chippy, but it’s desert dry…probably because it’s the Mojave.

Kinda weird that it’s gonna be hotter there than in Vegas this week, for at least a couple days. Was breezy af all weekend but now winding down and barely hitting the low 90s. Sunday and yesterday felt more like Denver than Vegas. Pretty great hiking weather.

Only gonna be in the 90s here in sunny Vegas next week. Breeze has been kicking up here and gonna ramp up this weekend…big trough moving into the northwest which should translate east I’m assuming by next weekend which is when Vegas starts to heat up again.

Decent steady rain, though.

Very exciting storm. So when does the sun return?

Early congrats to lower MoCo and points south and east. The light shower earlier had chunky raindrops. Someone down in that batch of precip is gonna score a gully washer.

I’m jealous. Been mostly cloudy up here all morning and mild. Hoping we can get some sun up here for a bit. I’m gonna be out west for a couple weeks so I’d like to see/hear some storms prior.

Still mostly green here in my neck of the woods in Frederick...basically the complete opposite of the last two years. Too bad those wins haven't translated to more in the way of quality snowstorms. The wind has been something, too...played some basketball today and had to aim the ball 3 feet to the left of the rim when shooting three-pointers to offset that westerly breeze.

Downpours and thunder is this morning’s theme. Minimal drought issues here.

Had a couple good downpours late yesterday. Idk what’s going on, but mby has done well with precip the last couple months.
