Admittedly my heart was racing like crazy. For a few minutes I thought the life long bucket list dream of witnessing a tornado touch down might materialize. Also equally worried about my new shingles lol. The best rotation on radar was further north east of Halifax, I'm not sure if anything touched down up that way.

It looked pretty intense with lots of lightning strikes. I even posted about it earlier. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anduril Posted June 5, 2020 Flash Flood watch issued From 2 PM EDT this afternoon through this evening * Heavy showers and thunderstorms training over the same locations this afternoon and evening could bring up to a few inches of rain in less than one hour, leading to localized flash flooding of small streams and poor drainage areas. Just what I need more water for in my basement lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bubbler86 Posted June 5, 2020 4 hours ago, Superstorm said: Anybody heading out to the outdoor restaurants this weekend? . I just got back from Florida and except the the airport, which was an eerie ghost town, life is back to normal down there. I ate inside a restaurant 4 times in 3 days. Some had some seats closed off but some did not and were at 100 percent capacity with no masks on patrons and servers wearing masks haphazardly such as under their chin. Probably a preview of what is coming here over the next few weeks. Ironically cases are at their highest in Florida since mid April. Probably some extra testing there but also the virus is spreading rapidly again down there. Between this and Brazil's troubles I think the hope that heat stops the virus is fading fast. The airports (BWI and MCO) were like a nightmare. There were times when I was the only person within 1000 feet distance. My one flight was only about 20% full.

We have had take out meals from local restaurants in Mount Joy/Marietta/Bainbridge every single Friday since the 2nd week of March. We'll continue that tonight and next week before leaving on vacation. Once we get home I'll reassess and see where things stand. I've been spending a lot more money on food than what I budgeted for but hey...a lot of people are a whole lot worse off than me right now and I want to do what I can to support their business. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We've been doing the same. Takeout 2x/week, but our local places know us personally, and I know how tough this has been on them. Were not rich by any means, but were gonna do our part to support them. My birthday was tuesday, so this weekend is a late happybdaytome. lol If my work doesnt start picking up soon.....I'm going to be eating my grass outback and harvesting rabbits n squirrels for supper...heck maybe the groundhog too. Will see how long n ugly business stays. Hoping for better times soon gang. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My wife did not mention it and I missed it. I feel like it is muggier here than it was in Florida. It was hot down there but when I got off the plane at BWI it felt like a sauna.

Voyager Posted June 5, 2020 I just really can't do take-out anymore. I need to sit down and have a hot freshly cooked meal at my table, not luke warm and drying out from the 15-30 minute drive home. Carbon County is going green next week, and since my wife works over there, I told her to make reservations somewhere, anywhere, NOW, so we don't get shut out next week by the rush to return to normal.

You reminded me on one thing that was not normal with meals in Florida. Ate at two chain restaurants and two local. Both the chains were serving a reduced offering shown on a throw away menu. I would say the menus were about 50-60% of what they would usually have. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
