  1. You’re good. We’re close! That spring is about 150 yards behind my house. My lot happens to be where there’s a gulley and water drains through. When everything is flowing then we’re fine. It just sucks when things clog. The state is coming to evaluate for me sometime in the next few weeks. This is front yard with me pointing at the ditch that clogs.
  2. I love my home. One year in, but after water in my basement last Fall, I'm out in the street digging out the debris in my storm drain weekly (that usually diverts runoff toward my home.).
  3. It's only fun when you're in your twenties, living on the 12th floor of a downtown DC apartment and the maintenance man fixes everything for you. Since buying a home, my perspective on certain types of weather has changed dramatically.
  4. Not sure how fruitful my comment is, but it’s hard for me to tell as far as my muscle memory goes. I’m used to judging how bad a summer is by how bad I trash a suit or shirt with sweat while walking around downtown before or after work. Haven’t done much of that since COVID’s onset. Although today felt particularly miserable. I was cranky even during a top off and door off Jeep ride this evening.
  5. Yup, was thinking about you. Going on 20 minutes of heavy rain.
  6. I’m just to the NE of that 3.01. Didn’t get a reading last night but it sure felt tropical for at least 2 plus hours.
  7. Oh no! I fell asleep. Going to check mine now. Hope you don’t have too much of a mess…
  8. I was watching that outflow and trying to explain what it was to my 6 y/o nephew. In my mind I was like “nah, not our night— won’t amount to anything.” Storm ditches in Hollin Hills have been maxed out for an hour now.
  9. Considering pouring some coffee. Watching closely.
  10. Agreed. The symptoms last for days. I was initially concerned about a rash before discovering what it was. NBC 4 covered a story in it.
  11. Came here to confirm. This totally caught me by surprise.
  12. I knew you were going to circle back on this! [emoji23] Had a nice evening dinner on the deck and a delightful rain free dog walk. Watched some cumulus passing just to the north near DC from the second line and shook my head.
  13. Didn’t expect to be having dinner on the deck this evening. But I’ll take it.
  14. Perfect. Thank you! Looking forward to the skies opening up now!
  15. Seeing really fat towers going up north and west of I 95 that I haven’t seen around here in a while.
