  1. 26.8 this morning, which is sadly the lowest temp of January so far.
  2. Got a few snowdrops up. My main goal for this year is to do a better job spacing my tomatoes. It got to a point last year where there were so many vines you couldn't easily find the fruits. The big story this year will be the cicadas. I arrived in DC just after 2004 brood, so this'll be interesting. I've heard varied things about what they do to plants/trees.
  3. If the Vikings ever won a Super Bowl (I know, imaginary scenario), I wonder how many years it would take before I would be pissed off enough to “run” the front office out of town.
  4. The Packers would beat both of these teams by 2+ TDs. Everything sucks.
  5. 9.8" here from that one. The only 4"+ storm since the 2015-16 winter.
  6. Stafford is not a FA now, but it is possible that Detroit and Stafford agree to part ways. They clearly need to try to rebuild, again, and he has taken such a beating over his career that he may feel like he only has a few years left to win.
  7. Might as well stick it in here before it disappears.
  8. Well, we don't ever have to worry about that.
  9. No specific events came to mind for me. This year will be remembered for the lack of snow, the July 90 degree days, and the constant rain. Looking through my records, the most interesting/anomalous thing was a rain event on January 12th. Not just any rain event, but one with a (very brief) 7.78”/hr rate at 1am with a temperature of 66.5 degrees. That is messed up.
  10. A Pete and Pete reference. Damn, that’s old school.
  11. I mean, was Kirk even in the top 20 of our problems today?
  12. Between this and nailing the front end of the storm last week, the HRRR is doing very well.
  13. 2.12” of rain. 32.4 now. First ten degrees came in minutes, the rest was a slow slog like normal.
  14. The 12z HRRR is aggressive enough that it thinks that there will be enough snow cover to radiate on Saturday morning.
  15. I’m not seeing much evidence of a “flash freeze”. Maybe a 20-25 degree drop over a three hour period. The mountains really ruin it for us.
  16. 56 degrees with gusts to 9mph. Rocking and rolling here.
  17. We don't usually realize the high gusts with S to SE winds, but this bears watching.
  18. Pretty sure we did it last year on 12/11/19 too, unless I'm interpreting my brief notes on that one incorrectly.
