The Wed-Fri timeframe, and even into next weekend looks awesome for nice weather. Feel bad for the West though. That is an unrelenting bake. Wish you luck. Thursday looking really nice.

Eskimo Joe Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Took the wife back fishing at Pleasant Valley Fire Department. She hooked countless large panfish and a 2lb largemouth bass (her first!). I lost easily a 5lb + bass myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch out for CHIGGERS. I mowed my neighbor's huge lawn 2 weeks ago, wound up with 27 chigger bites. Thats a RECORD. Neighbor told me thats what I get for praying for so much rain 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did get some of that. But definitely nothing Saturday or Sunday (not that I am bummed about that...we've had plenty still). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

high risk Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 1 hour ago, Eskimo Joe said: Meso guidance looks pretty meh tomorrow. The question seems to be whether any storms will fire during the day out ahead of the main forcing. Neither the cape nor shear are particularly crazy during the day, but the combination must just be sufficient for SVR if we get storms. Otherwise, the best chance of widespread storms is way late during the evening (as per the NAM3), but they might be slightly elevated with lesser threat of SVR. I am also keeping an eye on Wednesday, when the secondary cold front arrives during peak heating, with better lapse rates and deep layer shear in place.

Stormpc Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 4.32 for the month....1.76 since 8/5. Woodbridge. I was in NC for the past 9 days and I picked up about 8 inches over that period at my house right on Currituck Sound , across from Corolla.

BlizzardNole Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Had a big yard project to do today (garden beds clean-up and mulching), and could't ask for better conditions with overcast and mid-70s. Things are dry though with a paltry 0.27 since August 8. I'm really happy about the beautiful weather for later this week, including Friday when we move our son into the dorm at UMD College Park. Hoping for some rain tomorrow, but not counting on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Spent the day Sunday in N VA, some of it at Great Falls. It's been many years since I was there. Was a super nice day and the views of the falls are always awesome. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
