Had my first coffee on the back patio without slapping mosquitos morning of the season.

If you told me up front the number will be 16" for the season, count me in the group that would rather have 8 events of 2" snowfall rather that 2 events of 8" snowfall.

If you're in the I95 corridor watch for slowing of the storm correct? The more it slows the more it will be pushed east and the more it speeds up the more it pushes west?

Next question, is the line behind it going to fizzle after sundown? I suppose that at least the cooler temps will allow for some watering in the early morning without fear of it instantly evaporating.

Looks like a dry slot is forming near Germantown that will go right over Columbia and Baltimore. Man I needed some rain in my yard and looking like almost nil.

I'm not overly concerned about the daytime heat, but the evening heat is killing me. In years past you could always count on being able to enjoy the evenings even when it was oppressively hot that day. This year seems different. 85 degrees at 10pm is unnatural.

With my project management background I try to look at the big picture, and to me it seems like there are micro and a macro trends going on here. The micro trend that the mid Atlantic is warming meaning so called marginal events are more likely to be rain rather than snow is completely plausible to anyone who follows science. That however doesn't explain why places much colder and north of us are having horrible snow winters as well, that seems to be a macro trend that doesn't necessarily have to do with whether it was 28 or 35 degrees here. Seems like when the macro trend resolves itself we'll get our snow here as well as other places, just maybe with a lower baseline to account for the various marginal events per season we'll start to lose out on because of local micro trends in temperatures. Hence my view that it will still snow here, eventually.

Winter Storm Warning for Baltimore just came through on my phone! First to cave will be Giant, then Weis, then.....

Are the school districts going to catch up here or are we going to be getting 4am texts?

Remember when we complained about how Roman running the ball cost us the playoffs? Those were the days!

Live view of my front yard.

Yeah I spoke too soon. Street out front caved in a nanosecond of this. Might get .25 out of this if it lasts another half hour.

Coming down hard in Towson with the first fatties of the day. Looks like it's going to come and go to fast to do anything more than provide another coating.

Apparently my kid was one of them, which station was it, she didn't know?

Getting texts about everything shutting down for the weekend. No rec bball, no travel bball, no music lessons, and nothing to get between me and football!
