H2O

Dude. clouds will burn off by 1pm, DCA will sneak in a bogus 90 on a NW wind inter-hour obs. Thats the standard DC day. Oh and thrown in some quick CAPE to bust the cap and a SPC meso with a 30% watch

I'm hoping my precip is right. One thing I wonder is with how heavy the rain was that it missed some. It poured as you know. And that thunder was the loudest of some time. Given the two misses during the day I wasn't expecting anything overnight so it was a bit of a surprise for the first one and then again for the second. One was a pure west to east mover and the other was a north to south. A bit unusual IMO. Wondering what boundary set it off. But welcome rain for sure.

It was painful to see two rounds miss me to my east during the day and hear all the T&L. Then ma nature throws a bone overnight. 2.12" and first measurable in two weeks.

After missing out on storms all afternoon and evening I got two rounds last night. First one at 12am, second 2:30. JFC did it pour. 2.12" from both. Rolling thunder for hours. Great storms but need them during the day.

Caught this last night before coming back from the eastern shore.

You should ask him to deliver

If no wind you get eaten up at night. Wind shifted today and flies got nuts too

No. I’m way down deep on the DelMarVa. South of Chincoteague

Another day at the beach and in the water. Bay water is waaaarrrrmmmmmm. Hot and humid yesterday. Hoping the backdoor front drops temps a little today

No thanks. I’d prefer not dying having to work in that shit.

models want to keep ridging to the middle of the country. Flow is up north of us. Gonna be dry with that.

I get dibs on the next one.

Happy birthday, @stormtracker!!!!

Food network needs to hire Mrs. J

I missed out all weekend and on Tuesday so bring it.

I'm ok. I do learn well and that helps avoid having to be sternly talked to.

If it comes across as self serving, my apologies. The intent is to show that change is possible and that it takes time to erase the old way of thinking. My hope is that my kids, other kids will be given the chance to see everyone equally. And THEN the world can really be the better place we all want it to be.

I've told this story(or maybe I haven't) before but it feels more important now than before. My dad was a racist. Said awful things about all minorities. Growing up and being around him I heard it all. And of course to want that love from a dad I more often than not went along with it. Hell, I was a kid. I didn't know any better. So as you can assume, I started to think like him. Fast forward to college and going out on my own. Being exposed to different people, backgrounds, cultures showed that I was dead wrong. I started to hate my dad for brainwashing me and being ignorant to the changing world around me. When I had kids I made a promise. I promised that hate would have no place in my house. My kids would enjoy a life where everyone is welcome and treated equally and they won't look at how a person looks first. Its whats inside. I ended up having words with my dad once when he said stuff around my son when he was little. Told him that if he was going to be like that then kiss his grandson goodbye. He wouldn't see him any more or any grandkid. Line in the sand. The hate ends with me. The next generation can be the ones to Sheppard in better, less hateful times. Racism is borne from ignorance and fear. Whats to fear? You put your pants on like I do. You and everyone are human beings with the right to be free and prosper. How hard is that to let happen? I'm sorry that the reality is what it is for you and your family. I pledge to do my part to make things a better place for everyone.

epic bust for my hood. barely any rain
