Itstrainingtime

Funny you mentioned that...with the amount of moisture left over from this past storm plus modest instability, any sunshine today will serve to fuel some RAIN showers this afternoon.

I want to be near water. Wife wants to be in the mountains. Key West seems like a good compromise to me.

Looks like the end is in sight now...band is starting scoot east instead of northeast. Should be out of the steady rain in the next hour or so. Maybe. I hope.

As much as I love snow, I am beginning to think Key West will be a nice place to retire in about 9 years.

I say that all the time. Every day like this is one less potentially hot and miserable day.

Same here. Raining as hard if not harder than at any point yesterday.

This pattern has to break soon...right?

Looks like this afternoon is shaping up to be another soaker. We can use it...not much has fallen now for about 16 hours.

Just the highest elevations of the northern mountains...but still...

It is straight up nasty out there...horizontal rain with near freezing wind chills. Not the nicest of Mother's days...

Was just going to post that Horst is mentioning snow for northern PA tomorrow night. I thought of you.

2 torrential downpours today netted .65" in the gauge. On to Sunday...

43 days until the hours of daylight gets shorter.

Maybe true...they post restaurant inspections in the Lancaster Sunday paper which I read on a regular basis. I don't remember the last one for Shady Maple though. I have a personal story regarding driving home from dinner there years ago which I probably shouldn't share in this forum.

Ha! A lot of people swear by dinner at Shady Maple, but I have to tell you that there's something even better... Breakfast at Shady Maple. :) I seldom go for dinner any longer...the quality and value of their breakfast is off the charts good.

Thank you! It's going to be a bit raw and chilly for any picnics going on today...

Sounds like it's time for Bubbler to start the warm season weather thread.

...and right on cue they broke our hearts once again last night. When you can't get the fundamentals right you have no chance. Tip of the cap to Chris Sale and Jackie Bradley who were the difference. Fun yet maddening game to be at last night.

As a die-hard O's fan for 40+ years I can almost guarantee a gloomy day is in store for you regardless of the weather...

Dude, you don't want much, do ya'? I mean THREE whole days in a row...whaddya think this is, San Diego or something? :)

It really truly doesn't look like we'll get much rain until later Thursday or probably Friday, so there's that...

...and there you go. Night after night of low to mid-70s for months last year.

It's amazing how consistently above average our lows have been over the past 12 months. Clouds and humidity for the loss...

Finished with 2.7" for the weekend. I was just talking to Brian (daxx) and he recorded about 3.5" in east York.

There's an interesting discussion ongoing in the mid-Atlantic severe thread concerning the general ignorance of the populous when it comes to watches and warnings that are issued and what each means. This is something that personally drives me crazy. A few weeks ago there was a storm entering Lanco from the southwest that was TOR warned - we had the radio on and after the warning alarm and the announcement ended the on-air personality followed up by telling listeners that there wasn't anything to be worried about at that time, "it's only a warning, not a watch." How does a warning not sound more ominous than a watch does? Not to mention, a watch typically covers hundreds of square miles, a warning is for a much more specific area.
