  1. This is my favorite summer weather. Sunny Morning after an overnight rain, not too hot but still muggy enough to be like morning in Borneo. Smells fresh outside. Unfortunately box turtles love it too, and it was carnage on the back roads on my way to Annapolis this morning.
  2. WB is honking that the AMO is continuing to show signs of flipping. Will be interesting to see what this does to global temps and our winters once it finally happens. Should be good for snow.
  3. In Calvert we've gotten enough rain to be close to average but definitely not the excess some areas have seen to really reverse the long term drought. Hopefully it'll get whittled away though.
  4. About ten years ago I abandoned the lawn merry-go-round and let my front yard go back to nature. Planted a few trees and shrubs and now it looks like a maturing second growth forest. Very nice. Same with my back yard sans the septic field. I have a few small lawn patches left but they're mostly shade and have turned into moss which looks a good as lawn but doesn't need any water or cutting. Used to have to mow my lawn weekly but now I only break out the mower about twice a summer. Not sure how big lawns ever became desirable.
  5. The GW people got it all wrong. Instead of 150F wet bulb temps we're going to turn into the steppes with cold dry wind all the time.
  6. Miserable day at DCL. Gusty winds to 30mph and constant drizzle, rain at 48F. Went to cranesville swamp and swallow falls and had both places entirely to ourselves. Thank goodness for gore-tex.
  7. Another crap day in Swanton. Misty, windy and cold - 49F.
  8. Socked in with clouds/fog at 53F and rain at the cabin. Looks like a strong line just to the west of us heading east. We have a flood watch too. At least I don't have to worry about floods being at the very top of a mountain!
  9. We definitely busted high today, I was hot working outside moving stone. Usually it seems like we're lower than advertised though, we're at 3k ft elevation on the nose.
  10. Forecast was for 63F at the cabin today and we're already at 69F and sunny. No wind either!
  11. Low around 48F this morning at the cabin. Still windy with partly sunny skies. Didn't have much hope due to the weather but I tied out two female cecropia moths on my porch last night and actually pulled in a couple males.
  12. Got the keys to the cabin on the mountain, construction complete! Too bad the wind is blowing like crazy, I'm sooo sick of wind this year. It's relentless.
  13. The pattern has truly shifted. Coastals are back on the menu!
  14. Hopefully it comes true just like it did when the euro was predicting 7-10" area-wide 10 days ago.
  15. The pax river forcefield seems to be in effect from what I can see.
  16. Tropical downpour in Calvert. Heavy rain and thunder, very soupy out.

    Winter 2025-26

    That's the setup for an EPIC FEBRUARY PATTERN
  18. Was up in DC at the house this weekend, not much there except for some overnight light rain. Just got back in Calvert and it looks like there was a solid inch or so while I was gone. I need to get a new rain gauge, I left my old one out over the winter and the water in it froze and shattered it.
  19. Has someone hacked your account?
  20. Latest euro has the rainstorm equivalent of a warm nose right up to the lower Chesapeake. Expecting just pity sprinkles by the time first drops fall.
  21. Kuchera maps? 10:1 euro looks about like we'd expect for a Christmas blizzard analogue.
  22. With about as much chance of verification.
  23. So is all my home's interior millwork.
  24. Lol just found wjla's weather website plays historical radar on at least a 5hr loop and it showed a heavy cell over just my town at around 4am, light everywhere else. I must manifested that for my yard.
