Dry Novembers have become the norm here. Only 3 of the last 18 have finished above the long-term average of 2.73” (2011, 2018, 2022)
Average of those 18 seasons is 2.05”
1985 had a historic cold snap in January, but overall the winter wasn’t all that cold. December 1984 was very mild, on the order of +5 for the month. And the second half of February was also “warm.”
Neither season was close to the coldest on record.
The Orioles extended their winning streak to 10 games that I have attended recently. This one was the sweetest of them all. No-hit down to their last out and then rally for 4 to win it. Orioles Magic !
Getting some loud thunder already from a small cell to my north that developed ahead of the main batch moving this way from western Md. Looks like a pretty interesting afternoon possible here.
Getting whipped here. Winds gusting to 45 mph. Vivid lightning close by. Torrential rain.
edit: 59 mph gust. Easily the windiest storm in a very active season here.
