oh our compressor is running, as we have cold air coming out of the vents. humidity dropped to 54% since this morning, so who knows. i have a feeling my humid issues indoors is more our windows then the ac itself not doing its job.

2021 Mid-Atlantic Severe Weather - General Discussion
mappy replied to Kmlwx's topic in Mid Atlantic
storms today? mr map had to go out of town for a few days to visit his ailing father. kiddo wants to swim later... -
It cycles as it should.
-
yup. eventually we will replace them
-
Oh yeah, there are sirens in CO. Weld County, which is where the landspout happened, has had 250+ tornado segments go through the county since 1950. Highest in the US.
-
Per the little thermometer we have in the kitchen, 62% humidity inside. We can't do anything with our AC at the moment, since it died last week. HVAC guy reworked wires so we had working AC, but we can't control the temp or turn it off. He should be out today to replace the circuit board so I'm hoping the humidity inside will go down when he does. But we do have horrible drafty windows. Just another thing on the list to replace.

gosh we need new windows, the mugginess is very apparent in the house
-
our weeping cherry in the front doesn't have many shells on it, but they are all in the canopy. can hear them flying about. A lot emerged from our oak in the backyard. we have hostas planted around the base of the tree, that are now trampled because the dogs spent so much time cicada hunting over the last couple weeks. lol

Always Weld. I dont recall the circumstances of how the storm fired up, but absolutely can landspouts form from colliding boundaries
-
Yup! That's exactly it. Landspouts can still cause damage, I believe a farm was damaged last night from that one. But its easier to get closer as the rotation is much more compact to the funnel itself vs a much larger area in a tornado from a supercell.
-
Welcome! Very common in the upper plains, and this one was in Weld County, CO. Fairly sure that county has the most tornadoes every year.
-
Fun fact: that was actually a landspout. While still technically a tornado, it forms differently than other tornadoes. The storm it formed from was still forming, there were no updrafts and upper air rotation, all the rotation came from ground level. Most landspouts are long and skinny that like because its rotation is on the ground.

oh my. been so busy for hours I hadn't looked.
-
fingers crossed for you!
-
man that's the worst. that happened to us a while back, our HVAC guy came out to fix a refrigerate leak, and it helped for a bit until it didn't. We had a bigger crack further up the line that needed to be replaced. We ended up replacing the whole unit (it was old anyways).
-
ugh, sorry friend.
-
Was ridiculously loud at work today, could hear them through the window near my cube
-
Ma and Pa were terrible to you
-
sounds about right
-
lol
-
the last 10 minute of the window
-
lol 3 more would put him in the 100s
-
LOL but I'm telling the truth. I was not in the wrong!
-
to be fair, it would have been his fault had i actually hit him
