Storms ruined my picnic plans last night, but once they moved out to the southeast they put on one of the most incredible lightning shows I've seen. One of those times were even other, presumably "normal" people stop to look up at the sky. Bolt after bolt ran along the clouds for hours. Had the privilege of walking down to watch it once with a friend and then later on with my camera. Won't be a night to forget. DSC_0870.thumb.jpg.754dfecc07bfd9cc0e701d584a9653f4.jpgDSC_0904.thumb.jpg.ad7c7de304c2ffea1f0f81a288d61469.jpgDSC_0910.thumb.jpg.40959c2bb34743edc9368a22991fca7a.jpg

Great pic! I'd send one, but it would have just been of the cloud deck and rain. Picked up 1.49" with LOTS of T&L between 10 pm and 1 am. Sitting at 5.28" for the month.

It was clear enough for about 15 minutes around 11:30 last night.  It was pretty cool to see... nothing like the solar in 2024

 @NorthArlington101Turns out UVA liked them too as I'm now a post on their Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/p/DclqopRDcKi/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsi=MzRlODBiNWFlZA%3D%3D

Super cool! Way to take advantage of UVA’s status as supercell alley these days. I’ve been feinding for good lightning this summer and have been annoyed - clearly I need to visit Cville.

Hope you are ready to cheer us on vs. NC State tomorrow!! Big game.

Up here at DCL it's 71F and zero humidity with a good breeze, basically a perfect day.  We moved about 4000lbs of rock. Kinda weird up here, all the cherry trees have lost about half of their leaves already.  Just dried up and fell off.  Can't really blame it on drought, I guess it's just getting late I the season here.

And the crowd boos

Despite the uncertainties, it remains likely that high temperatures
will reach the lower to middle 90s for much of the region for much
of the new work week. Latest guidance indicates potential for
temperatures in the upper 90s to near 100 mid week, so long as
it is not disrupted by cloud cover or convection. Depending on
smaller scale details, dew points could end up a little higher
or lower than currently progged which will ultimately affect how
high heat index values get. Values approaching Heat Advisory
criteria (100-104 west of the Blue Ridge, 105-109 east of the
Blue Ridge) are possible.

Temperatures may begin to moderate by next weekend as a cold front
crosses the region.

I’m throwing the rest of my tomato garden at whoever wants this smoke :lol:

I’m ready for fall, but Mother Nature has other ideas. Ridge center will thankfully not be overhead, so it could’ve been worse. Heat Advisories are probably likely this week in many spots.
