Eskimo Joe Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 6 tornadoes yesterday, 5 of which were in MD. I believe the longterm average is 10 tornadoes per year in Maryland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arlwx Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 That was a bit of an unpleasant surprise yesterday. Looked out in the back yard and LOTS of big branches down. Since there were workmen next door, the assumption was they had thrown the branches over the fence. In reality, the workmen were there to repair a fallen ceiling, and the branches had come from the tree of the neighbor back of him (and us). I presume the strong winds Friday evening did this.

Dead Ash tree? I have had two that I hadn't taken down yet fall in last month. If you have any near your property get them down! They either snap off about 5-10 foot up or completely uproot (I had one of each) once dead over a year. That is my PSA for the day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthboundYank Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Temp rebounded to 38, up ~10 degrees from daybreak. Heavy frost in the grass where the sun hasn't touched it yet...love that. Next best thing to snow, this season anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSA from Captain Obvious: Which of course makes sense because the sun angle is the same now as it is it during the first few days of November. Fin Currently the temperature is 49F under sunny skies.

wxdude64 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Another wet and cloudy/cool day. 'wedge' feel to it. Just hit 40 degrees with a moderate rain falling. Just a hair over .25 in the gauge since 7 am. Another fail from NWS, which has updated forecast to steady rain and a 43 high after a 7 am forecast of 53 and showers in afternoon.
