^It's on the schedule for this evening.
-
Maybe the general h5 look we have seen with the mean ridge to our west can hold into summer. Would definitely reduce the episodes of prolonged extreme heat if nothing else.
-
48 here this morning. Another near perfect weather day coming up, before a quick transition to a very warm and humid air mass for the mid to late week period. Looks like the front will stall rather than clear the area, so there should also be some chances for showers and storms.
-
New Honda mower is smooth and tight.The smart drive variable speed self-propelled system works really well. Impressed so far.
-
Meanwhile the Tidewater is getting clocked pretty good with heavy rain. Looks like a nice dead zone setting up between the line passing well to the NW, and the stuff to the SE. Not interested in the least in severe, just some heavy downpours.
-
12z 3km NAM and the latest HRRR runs concur. Best dynamics lift well NE it seems.

Friday Happy Hour. Drinking a Double Digit.

Well since I pushed for that thread to be started to begin with, I cant completely disagree. Ofc I don't have any say in which threads stay active and which ones are locked. I suggested a separate thread mostly to keep the COVID talk from dominating banter, as it was at the time. Activity is definitely much lighter here now in general though, but that is typical for this time of year. At least there is an easily accessible option for those who want to engage in that discussion on this forum.
-
The action here always dies off this time of year. Most of the regulars gradually disappear. This is a winter weather 'centric' forum, despite the fact we don't see much actual winter weather anymore in these parts.
-
Yes its a 206. Fat fingers me lol. Fixed
-
So I bought a Honda mower today- the same one @George BM has and recommended. My dad has basically the same thing, but his has an electric start. I am good with pull start. I'll get it put together on Saturday. Enjoying an Oliver 206 IPA right now.
-
Well funny you mention that. I was just talking to my dad and that is exactly what he has. He seems very happy with it. For the money, I am leaning in that direction.
-
Ha yeah. I remember my dad had one when I was a little kid living in a row house in Edmonson Heights. I may have pushed it around a few times.
-
6 acres, but most of it is wooded. I probably have a half acre or so that needs to be mowed.
-
I am thinking about going with this one.
-
Damn the new Snappers are just as pricey.
-
Yeah they are pricier but nice mowers. Get what ya pay for. True statement.
-
Time for a new mower. The Briggs & Stratton on my walk behind SP mower just threw a rod lol. Big hole in the side of the block and what looks like a bolt from the connecting rod/cap is laying on the mower deck. Any recommendations on a self propelled push mower? This one is a Snapper and worked fine for 7 years, outside of needing some carb cleaning.
-
I'm just sitting here listening to the Killers and drinking an EVO Lot No 3 IPA. Pretty awesome combo.
-
I saw a different picture online and that is a really little kid holding it. Still an impressive hunk of hail. Melon sized.
-
Nice summer day. Having a blast using my Elucto electrocution swatter to slam carpenter bees. They are active today. Gotten about 10 so far. It really is quite satisfying, this game.

2019 Mid Atlantic Lawn, Garden, Pool, etc. Thread
CAPE replied to Eskimo Joe's topic in Mid Atlantic
I was out back checking on the mole activity and the plants after all the rain. This rose bush has gone bonkers the last week or so. I don't do much other than throw down some rose tone. Didn't even cut this one back, as the deer usually chew them down during the winter. They didn't touch this one though. -
Its Friday! And the start of a holiday weekend.
-
Just poured a Flying Dog 'The Truth' Imperial IPA.

Hot enough for you? -- the sequel (forecast contest)

BWI: 100F DCA: 104F IAD: 99F RIC: 103F I will also predict my yard won't see triple digits. Never does. The antithesis of urban sprawl.
