Itstrainingtime

What a whirlwind weekend! Safe travels home.

.78" fell here.

I just came back to say that the lightning approaching my area is incredible- nonstop flashes now.

Steady rain. More rain has fallen in the past 45 minutes than the first 20 days of September. Truth.

83 here in Maytown. Not going to reach 89 most likely but it's plenty warm enough.

I remember fondly reading the paper in our break room. We're too chea... I miss having the print version of the news.

Here's the 5 day map - a lot of what we get doesn't fall until next week: (#mumightstillberightforthisweekendafterall)

Pretty much every time I post a WPC rainfall map it looks drier than the previous one that they issued - but not this time! Much wetter than 24 hours ago: (#mumightnotberightthistime)

Indeed - the King of disappearing when it matters.

JUST missed 90 today - 89.2 was my high. Nice thing about this time of year...down to 64 already at 10:15pm.

MU does NOT seem impressed.

80 and sticky at 11:55am.

I was at the Apple Store on Tuesday and my first thought upon entering the store was "I can't begin to imagine what this place is like on a Saturday." Good luck.

You were mentioning a week or two ago about how quickly we're losing daylight here - in Bethel, they're losing 5 minutes on average every single day now.

Quick walk across campus was enough to remind me that summer isn't over just yet.

For those craving snow right about now, I don't know how I missed this. From August 23rd/24th: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Auruk5EHedw

Got just about what I thought I would all along.

Sun was out for about 30-40 minutes. Cloudy again, nary a drop of rain here.

Skies are clearing directly overhead here in Columbia. Sun is fully out.

Add me to the 0.01" of rain club thus far.

@Mount Joy Snowman - after all of the innuendos yesterday...probably a good thing you clarified your statement...

Abysmal. Like, really, really bad. This is harder to go through when the team had zero talent and you took for granted they sucked.

A ton of undisciplined AB's.

I was 18 when the O's last won the World Series. Over my first 18 years they were in the Fall Classic 6 times, winning 3 times. Next year I turn 60. Oh, how naive I was in my youth thinking that I'd have many opportunities to see my beloved team in the series. Well... Since the beginning of the 2023 season I've been cautiously excited that finally...my next opportunity to see a World Series game in Balmer was coming soon. Right now, that seems so far away. Again. It's hard not to feel discouraged.
