Are brining in Leesburg

I still have, and use, a link to the Wright Weather "radar forecast". Not sure where is the actual source but that's the only place I know of it existing. http://hp5-dev.wright-weather.com/nam-conus-radar-loop_1hour.gif

Herndon changed from mix to heavy snow now

Heavy mix in Herndon now - mostly rain

(Sigh) Here we go again. Hasn't rained for a couple of weeks now, and nothing in the forecast. Side note - why does NOAA keep moving the rainfall history map on their website? I bookmark it, and it's soon gone. Can't find it now. The bookmark I had: https://water.weather.gov/precip/ now brings up river gauges instead, even though the URL specifically contains "precip". You can add in some kind of precip info via checkbox, but it's pretty useless.

Very interesting. Would be curious to see the methodology behind it; what "societal conditions" means. Ideally it would account not only for inflation, but specifically inflation in housing and businesses (generally higher than headline inflation, which is just consumer goods), as well as not only the increasing crowded-ness of coastal areas but also the "luxury" factor of more luxury real estate construction on the coast. Overall the chart seems about right actually.

Blown WAY out of proportion. There were no militia "actively hunting" FEMA - it was one guy who made some verbal threats, and he's been arrested.

HIllsborough river NE of Tampa at record level:

Part of the problem is that all the buoys that were near they eye were all out of commission. :-( Closet one was Venice, which looked like this: Give that though - one would have thought that Venice would have registered a lot more than 62 mph sustained, given that it was pretty much at the eye wall. Only thing I can figure is that it's because these are so close to the water or land - the wind levels are lower due to surface friction.

Yeah I could see that. I noticed that the other gauges were still low, but just figured it was because the new surge hadn't reached them yet.

Fat lady hasn't sung yet on the surge in Tampa Bay.

Having lived in FL - heavy rain like that is always going to cause some flooding - the water just doesn't drain off that well since everything is so flat. It's especially exacerbated if there is damage to a storm drain, which there probably is in some areas right now.

NWS advisory is super-late - wonder why?

Port Manatee - south side of Tampa Bay - is actually seeing a *reverse* surge!
