Bubbler86 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Looks like we are topping off at 52. For once the temp did not exceed predicts. NWS had 54 or 55 for MDT which is where they are sitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a video of the collapse on Cnn and Foxnews for anyone that did not see it. Hard to fathom what this will mean for Baltimore right now. Shipping and car traffic going to be tough for a while.

Bubbler86 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 I see a lot of people down talking the impact on Baltimore car and truck traffic. The bridge handles 30-40K vehicles per day of which 80% are between the 12 hours between 7A and 7P meaning 2300-2400 additional vehicles each hour on I95 and 895 during the 12-hour stretch. It is estimated it will cost 500 million to 750 million to rebuild though some permanent areas from the previous bridge may be usable and afford a lessening of that cost.

ChescoWx Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Some lower spots in the county again fell to below freezing this morning - while higher spots like here in East Nantmeal remained just above freezing. We should now stay above freezing for at least the next week. Not much sun today through Thursday with rain chances ramping up by late tomorrow PM. County records for today: High 84 Coatesville (1921) / Low 11 Devault (1960) / Rain 2.03" Coatesville (1978) / Snow 4.0" Honey Brook (2013) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Baltimore harbor has one of the main coal export depot's. Plus one of east coasts main car import area. It's definitely going to create some huge supply chain bottlenecks until it's open again. Things can be rerouted to other ports for both import/export but it's also probably going to require dockworkers from Baltimore going to other ports to help relieve increase demand.

Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Yes, as Sauss said the economic impact is going to felt. Not sure how long it will take them to clear the water and then how much boat traffic can go by when the bridge building starts again. Google Maps says that road is closed until Dec 2024 but seems likely to be much longer than that. New Car availability in the east seems assured to be impacted. The first time there is a major accident on I95 or 895, it is going to be a newsworthy mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A saving grace is the time of day this happened, I guess. No comfort at all to those directly impacted, but an ever greater catastrophe was averted. Dear god if this happened at 5pm. There are certain things that I cannot watch. I don't even want to list them. I do not have a strong stomach when it comes to human tragedies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its no silver lining whatsoever, but the human impact could have easily been in the 100's. not trying to start conspiracy, but that ship was well left of the green channel beacon. Hoping no malicious intent. Thinking of all that are or will be impacted. In other news....I mowed yesterday. First and last mow report for season, but I'm "on the board"....lol Happy Spring all. Coulda snowmobiled in Tug Hill this past weekend but hosted family for Easter (my side), so sleds never made it north for a second year straight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Just had the yard guy here and it developed into an interesting convo. He said that our side of the mountain is the worst place to try and grow grass that he has as to his customers. He pretty much backed our next door farmer and said that the combination of being so high with little tree shade, like a usually higher elevation area would have, along with the great valley leaves us in a drought seemingly all summer, every summer. Also, it is not warm out at all. LOL. 42 at 10:30 on March 26 in mostly sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they can clear the wreckage (and hopefully no one else has died) fairly quickly but not sure how the harbor will be affected by the equipment building a new bridge over the next 2 years.

Bubbler86 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 36 min ago Emergency call from ship allowed authorities to close bridge and save lives, Maryland governor says From CNN's Andy Rose An emergency call from the container ship gave officials time to begin closing the Francis Scott Key Bridge to vehicle traffic before the ship slammed into it, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore said on Tuesday. “I'm thankful for the folks, once the warning came up and once notification came up that there was a mayday, who literally by being able to stop cars from coming over the bridge — these people are heroes. They saved lives last night,” Moore said. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
