Said it was so loud in the store she couldn’t hear people talking to her. Edit- and now she just texted to say power just went out. I’m 8 miles away I see sunny skies after 0.40” earlier. i was there (and left) about 15 minutes before it started. no thanks on the ping pong ball sized hail. just thunder and lightning here in Charles Town. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That storm back in July that had the violent lightning with it is what fried our garage door opener. We have a whole house surge protector on our panel but we think because my daughter was opening the door when the lightning was crazy is what did it.

kgottwald Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago Miserable humidity is back. 81/72 at IAD. The past few days with pleasant dewpoints I wasn't bitten by a single mosquito, now with the nastiness back I'm just getting eaten up by them. Does humidity really make a difference in skeeter activity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does humidity really make a difference in skeeter activity? I don't think so. The mosquitos that are around now are the invasive Asian Tigers. They only bite during the day and can continue to breed in the tiniest amount of standing water. If it stays warm those bastards will be around into October.

Something keeps eating my ass up outside, but it doesn't leave the telltale bumps. It stings a bit and itches for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It stings a bit and itches for a bit. That's them. They are very small and intensely itch but it doesnt last long and doesnt leave a welt on most people. Different experience for those who have sensitive skin/ skin disorders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to try a fishing trip to Lake America soon. Not sure if they’ll be a svr threat but my fishing tent could prob handle an inch of hail or so. Going to be amazing either way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
