Herb@MAWS Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 2.5" on east side of Columbia IMBY for the first part of this system. 4"+ for all of October here, even tho had only 0.23" for all Oct as of 10/24. So, basically 4" of rainfall from Oct 25-29. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldereagle Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 I have a house located in Crocheron across the bay from Solomons. The Bishops Head tide gauge is less than 2 miles from the house. My co-owner travelled there yesterday from Towson, taking over 2.5 hours on flooded roads from Cambridge to drive 30 miles to Crocheron, and was present to experience the brutal full brunt of the tidal flooding last evening’s high tide when the BH gauge hit 5.13 feet, and unfortunately tide came right on in. Our garage and den had 5 or 6 inches of water in it. Many homes were flooded multiple times in the past 48 hours. A real mess when seawater gets indoors. The road in front of the house was 2 feet underwater…. Helluva storm there yesterday, full on gale force. Western shore got hammered badly also with the wind forcing water to the west. That’s life in a flood zone, sadly. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s life in a flood zone, sadly. Man, that sucks. Sorry to hear. Areas of Dorchester county have become uninhabitable in the past 25 years because of the rising tides. NPR had a show a few years ago that was memorable. https://www.pbs.org/video/high-tide-in-dorchester-7ywhuy/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldereagle Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Yes I did see that program. Thanks, that part of the Bay country is overwhelmingly spectacular in its beauty to me. I’ve spent a lot of time there. There is always the tide, and it’s always a potential player. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about 20ft from my house so with the wind I could see it overestimating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank god my beer job / life keeps me sane when our storms go sideways. If it were late January or February it would've been 35 and rain the entire time. We had SE winds the entire event. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Transplant Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 East of DC/West of the Bay did well with that N/S oriented band. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 The below is true here, it looks like the upcoming high tide won't be close and I'm even more dubious about currently forecasted levels tomorrow a.m. We had impressive yard and street flooding in my area. Houses seem to have been spared, that I can tell so far. TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING... Latest model guidance is hesitant to drain water out of the tidal Potomac River and Chesapeake Bay as quickly as is being observed. Widespread minor to localized moderate flooding in vulnerable shoreline locations is still expected at least into tonight, though uncertainty increases in just how long, significant, or widespread flooding lasts beyond that.

wxdude64 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 So, just saw where NWS Blacksburg declared the 'growing season' done for my area....by date. This is a first that I can remember, usually we have a killing frost or freeze by now, I think my lowest temp so far this fall has been 36.5 back on the 19th? And I don't remember a frost advisory or freeze watch/warning ever issued, again another first.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormfly Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 CME is reaching the planet now. Hopefully we clear up tonight and can see something with our eyes! Last night we had an anomaly (unrelated to the CME) and peaked around 55GW atmospheric power. Photographic auroras were captured here in northern MD! Kind of boring compared to what they saw in Iceland but I'll take it! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
