Itstrainingtime

Sunshine, blue skies and 66 here currently. So...we have Partly Sunny, Mostly Sunny, Sunny...and now "Very Sunny"? LOL

YES!!! That happens ALL the time when we're down walking on the river trail!

Another wet day at the Beav. This will neutralize our offense and even things up with UMass. 9-3 Nittany Lions. I kid. I hope.

I laughed out loud at this. Here's my daily experience: 7:02AM - me to wife "it's going to be sunny and warm, temps in the 70s today" 7:32AM - wife walks out the door, texts me at work "I didn't realize it was going to be so nice out today"

John Smoltz is kissing up to Baltimore constantly. It isn't changing anything on the field. LOL

The snow event of October 10, 1979 included thundersnow in Washington, DC.: https://www.glenallenweather.com/upload/history/significant/early-events/1979/1979.pdf

No doubt about it. Wasn't Cantore in the 'burg? I got my answer:

I mean, you'd think they would understand? Everyone made such a big deal (rightfully so) over the snowfall we had on 10/29/2011 - so what is more impressive? And this isn't a question just for you, but to all - Is 5-6" of snow that falls on 10/29 more impressive, or 1" of snow that falls on 10/10? For me, hard choice. I'm going to say 1" on 10/10 only because I'm pretty confident that I will never see snow on the ground again here during the 2nd week of October. Not that I'd expect 5"+ on 10/29, either.

I'm now at 32 and mowing every 3-4 days again. I mowed late Saturday afternoon and I noticed this morning that I'll be cranking it up again tomorrow.

Mowing for the foreseeable future:

You're not alone - I was a freshman in high school in Millersville (PA) and was sitting in math class when the teacher came out of nowhere and slapped his hand down on my desk. Scared the living shit out of me. He said "Michael, stop staring out the window...haven't you seen snow before?" Jerk move by him.

@mitchnick - you have any recollections of the 1979 October snow event? Not sure where you were living at that time.

Also interesting to read (and this type of information wasn't available to me in 1979) that some areas NW of Baltimore actually picked up 2-3" of snow on this date. Incredible.

Saw a mention of this in the MA thread and instantly remembered...44 years ago today, I measured 1" of snow on this morning. Game #1 of the World Series in Baltimore was postponed on this night because of snow and cold. I was 14 at the time and didn't fully realize then how incredible it was to have measurable snow this early. Edit: the date that I measured 1" of snow was actually the morning of the 9th. Game #1 was played on the 10th after being rescheduled. Double edit: Never doubt my stats - the snow fell the morning of the 10th. I confused myself.

Low in Maytown this morning was 44.

It's 40 years of frustration. Sorry.

Orioles total embarrassment. I waited 40 years for this.

Perfect setup for him - he lives in Houston but will be in Arlington all week on business. This all fell right in his lap.

Our son has tickets for game #3 in Arlington.

Confirmed. We are here!

1.02" of rain fell here.

Pouring here at work. Full-on deluge.

2025 Penn State gets both southern Cal teams back to back to end the season.

74 in Maytown currently, 6 degrees lower than the same time yesterday.
