    Any of the mets in here think the Mid Atlantic has a chance for action, or are we done for the year?

    Costco in Owings Mills is putting out Christmas decorations. Wtf.

    Prior to this, we had direct planted into the ground. This resulted in so many problems, mainly because our soil goes to heavy clay about a foot down. Our beds are 8 inches raised, plus the 10 to 12 inches of modified existing soil has created a reliable profile for the next couple of years. I went further and got a container of fishing worms for each bed and scattered them on the top one evening to let them work in. Hopefully these efforts pay off.

    Rutgers, Yellow Brandywine, and Cherokee Purple. While we love the taste of Cherokee Purple they have thin skin and will split if it suddenly rains hard. One of those tomatoes that you have to eat within a day or two.

    At peak, we average 4 dozen tomatoes a day. We've never had success of this magnitude. Raised bed gardening is all I'll ever do from now on.

    Zucchini done for the year. Tomatoes starting to fade. Time to get the fall planting prepped...looks like garlic and collards.

    I can relate. Grew up with no AC in a twin home in Philly.

    If you want excellent data visualization, check out Tomer Burg and Sam Lilo on Twitter.

    Last I checked it's up.

    Season's over for us. We had Fred which turned out to be a bust. It's always something in these parts mucking things up.

    What an irresponsible tweet.

    Minimum $1 million per mile and, in areas that are already developed, you have to compete with other utilites and then trenching and ground each house. It's not going to happen on a large scale in this country.

    As someone who managed a utility company staging area post Hurricane Michael, it's better to overestimate power loss and have reserves ready to go than be short.

    Yup. Lots of early "storm cancel" posts here in this thread.

    Classic emergency management paradigm. You get a disaster, there's documented shortcomings in infrastructure then nothing changes when the next event occurs. But when the next event happens, the baseline infrastructure doesn't get improved yet supports more residences, businesses, etc.

    Looks like the 12z guidance starting to pick up on the rainfall potential.

    Oh to be a fly on the wall at OKX or BOX right now. Obviously a busy couple of days ahead for all of them.

    GFS catching onto the idea of an expanding wind field WRT Henri. Showing more interacting with the mid latitude trough over Mid Atlantic. At the least, looks like a breezy weekend and increased surf along the DE, MD, VA beaches.
