  1. Thanks for visiting the site! Your mom is a good person
  2. Using the data released by the Springfield office (as linked above). I wrote up a blog post for ustornadoes.com about the 2-year anniversary. Includes some radar images, and a few maps. http://www.ustornadoes.com/2013/05/22/joplin-missouri-ef5-tornado-may-22-2011/ Thank you to JoMo, who took the time to compile a list of videos taken along the path of the tornado. I used some of them in one of the maps. Thinking of Joplin today.
  3. I remember parts of 295 (up near me) where merge lanes weren't plowed all the way. I went to work one day between the storms and got to the end of the in ramp and had to come to a screeching stop. I was either going to drive straight into a snow bank or onto 295 traffic. Was really bad and am lucky I didn't cause an accident because of it. I called SHA as soon as I got to work to complain. It was plowed that day.
  4. At this point 3yrs ago, I was a little tipsy following my rehearsal dinner, and waiting for the snow to start in Frederick.
  5. My favorite day of the year! And could become even more awesome this year
  6. I needed some laughs and this thread was full of them. FISH WITH ARMS!!!!!!!
  7. Since when are you a professional in geology?
  8. Agreed, trolling in other subforums is not allowed.
  9. Thats the only way I see it. There is constructive criticism to improve things and then there is simply throwing an organization under the bus to benefit yourself and your private weather business.
  10. The Cal Ripken story was on the news last night up here in MD and on the radio this morning http://www.wbal.com/article/88925/3/template-story/Ripken-Helping-Tornado-Victims
  11. Thank you! Some of the guests drove six hours in the snow from the eastern shore to Frederick (where we got married). They were determined to get there! Sadly, we did have about 30 people not be able to make it. But I wouldn't change a thing.
  12. Cool article from the Baltimore Sun about the earthquake... in geology terms http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/bs-md-quake-timeline-20110823,0,1581033.story I'd also like to note that my college advisor, GIS professor and eventually the guy who hired me and introduced me to my husband... was quoted in the article.
  13. Randy, at least you were smart and left your building. I watched my coworkers scream and run out of the office while I sat in my cube saying "awesome"
  14. I know, I'm sorry. But if it does happen again, I can make more pretty maps
  15. No, I'm sorry... That already happened and may not happen again.
  16. I didn't tell you? I paint the future
