    Perfect weather as far as I'm concerned. We're generally abysmal at November snow anyway. December is game on, though.

    Another day where having the sun out helped significantly. This is a much better pattern so far than that cloudiness that prevailed for much of last November and really throughout most of the Winter extending into April.

    Might have already had more sunny days this month than last November. I'm hoping that ends up the trend...like Denver...no wasted clouds. Ideally, it will be sunny or stormy. I don't need consistent 45 degrees and gray lol.

    Nah, the Nam was showing this showery stuff moving through around this time. Just a mix near dt Frederick (more like frosty raindrops). II was foggy at the top of Catoctin...I have a feeling they probably were getting snow up there.

    Looks like the Blizzard of 2016. Meanwhile, if we get a snow shower down here east of the Apps in this type of a northern stream pattern it's a win lol.

    Cold, but sunny here to start the day. Let's see if we can evade clouds for at least half the day. Nam3k shows a snow shower moving through near the M/D line.

    The current satellite imagery is an exact replica of last year. Sunny skies to the south with a stream of clouds rolling in from the nw across northern md. Must be a La Nina thing with the combo of the jet stream alignment and just being closer to the Appalachians/Great Lakes. Every time I looked at the satellite last year it seemed like the Upper Midwest and interior NE was typically cloudy with debris clouds across the mid-atlantic.

    I could do without the cold/wind, but the sun is helping. If that's the new pattern, that would be a marked improvement over adding clouds to the equation (which seems like was the case more often than not last Winter/early Spring). The latter makes me want to consider moving out West lol. Long story short, cold/wind >>> clouds/cold/wind.

    Not too surprised by that. The elevation can change pretty quickly driving up Hamburg road to the top of Gambrill. My ears usually pop during that drive (I live nearby and mtb there quite a bit). Didn't see anything on the ground here, but I'm only at 300-400 ft and judging by the radar I was probably right on the southern edge of it.

    I'm still not all in on the Commanders. It's just not fun enough, but I am glad they kept the burgundy and gold. They got that part right. It just boggles me how they couldn't have gone with something with historical meaning like the Redtails or Hogs. Recently, I was even thinking that Pilots could be cool given the aerospace presence here. Meh. Ravens just seem to have more of a fun factor going for them these days.

    as it often times happens after a frontal or storm passage (for whatever reason), clouds have rolled in. hoping by mid afternoon (after the terps game), the sun takes over again after that UL energy moves through...with these temps, it's needed.

    my knees and back are genuinely enjoying this because I'm not out there riding rocky terrain on a hardtail lol (I need a full suspension at some point), but otherwise...yea, sunshine would be cool.

    2009/10 started with a bunch of these mid-atlantic slow moving systems in the Fall. I know that winter is highly unlikely to be repeated, but a blocky pattern is a good thing around here for crystals.
  15. 87storms
    after looking at the radar last night and this morning, all i have to say to bmore is mazel tov. you guys have been/are doing very well with this early fall noreaster.
  16. 87storms
    I noticed it driving down 15 from near Thurmont yesterday. Light returns, but a classic, straight off the Atlantic misty rainfall that requires wipers even when it's light stuff. Plenty of fog at the top of Gambrill, too. Good football day.
  17. 87storms
    not surprised in any way. the entire last year has been generally on the cooler side. assuming the pattern holds in the east, this has the feel of a classic winter incoming.
  18. 87storms
    been annoyingly breezy all week, but the forecast has higher gusts than i expected. we shall see how that pans out.
  19. 87storms
    outstanding mountain biking/outdoors weather pattern. got up to allegrippis in PA on saturday...flows galore. actually a pretty cool little area. i'm not ready for snow yet. by mid december is when i usually get on that train.

    Rained a little yesterday and a little today. What’s been kinda surprising to me is how quickly the trails have dried this summer after each rain event. I think fall and winter were somewhat dry which may be part of the reason. I know there have been areas with localized flooding esp closer to dc, but overall it feels like we’ve had just the right amount of rain here. Took a trip to Michaux a couple weeks ago and it was the same story.
  21. 87storms
    I actually thought I was too low. I know the stats don’t completely back this up, but this definitely “felt” like a cooler summer, which jives with the late start to spring. No idea what that means for winter (a code yet to be cracked in the mid-Atlantic).

    Was in Columbia at the time (at work talking to my manager…think it was even a performance review lol). So unlikely to get an earthquake here that my first guess was that the building was crumbling. It was pretty legit for about a minute there. I also remember cell service being down bc everyone was trying to figure out what just happened.
  23. 87storms
    Lol. You ain’t kidding. This whole year minus a few localized events has been pretty unremarkable weather wise.
  24. 87storms
    looks like i'll be missing that little cell, but getting a decent show out of it. can see the rain at the ridge tops. overall, radar isn't all that impressive, but it is busy.
  25. 87storms
    just like yesterday, seeing some CG right over the catoctin's. and as I'm typing, saw another extremely healthy bolt.
