  1. Well the "people's republic of Takoma Park" considers it a crime against humanity to cut a tree down so we've got like an entire forest here.
  2. So what's the deal with the ones I hear every summer? Are those just part of some season ones that aren't on a 17 year cycle?
  3. The cicadas are noisy as hell every year in my neighborhood it seems. It's like there's always a dull roar in summer evenings.
  4. Man, that sounds fun as hell. I'm not sure my kids (2 and 4) will like it much.
  5. But will Loudon be on a two hour delay to clear the Cicadas?
  6. So what's the deal with this? I have never experienced one of these. Are there going to be swarms of these things everywhere? Is my dog going to be jumping up and eating them out of mid air? Am I going to need to use my windshield wipers while driving? Will I need a tennis racket to get to my car lol?
  7. And between you and me (close in DC burbs) it's a huge gradient. I probably have about 6 inches on the season.
  8. Can't wait for all this slop to melt off so we can enjoy some proper DC early spring weather this week.
  9. Ice is accreting nicely on trees today but not at all on other surfaces which is nice. It's not slippery at all for walking around.
  10. Pretty decent ice accretion on the trees outside my window.
  11. Well that was fun, seems to have ended mostly and I imagine if it picks back up again it'll be a mix or rain. Best events of the year were the snow shower the morning after the sleet storm and this 90 minute storm. Back to tracking spring.
  12. Getting nice big flakes now and accumulating nicely everywhere. Roads caved.
  13. Of course all those POS failure events I wasted hours on sucked, and the one event I don’t track is the best of the season.
  14. Moderate snow, better flake size. Best event of the year lol.
  15. Nobody should ever wonder about why it doesn’t snow in dc anymore. Plain and simple it’s not cold enough. That’s such a pathetic seasonal low.
  16. Was last nights 25 the seasonal low at DCA? If so that’s pathetic.
  17. I love it. Beautiful out. Don’t even have to bundle up the kids anymore.
  18. Sun angle season in full effect. Don’t even need a jacket outside with calm winds.
  19. Yeah I don't see how that one can work for us with the stale cold air and southerly/southwest winds at 850 and the surface and a high off the coast hahaha. Maybe the Euro will throw us a bone for Friday.
  20. 3 days of 50s next week before our next fake storm. I'm ready for it.
  21. Didn't realize we had a stretch of 50s coming this week. My point in click has 50s Tuesday-Thursday. Bring it!!!!!
  22. Of course I like to see that but I have seen that map SO MANY times this winter. It's remarkable in fact how many times models have spit out a very similar map to this. DC on the southern end of a big pink snowfall distribution. I'm going to have nightmares about this map for many seasons to come.
  23. Prepare for everyone in NoVA to be offended by this but.... NoVA feels to me a lot like Long Island. It looks similar with the strip malls and divided highways. The houses look the same. The traffic is comparable. The population density is comparable. The people that live there seem like they used to live in the big city and sort of carry that big city attitude with them just like Long Island. I'll see myself out now
  24. I don't like that Monday threat for us in the metros at all. Stale/retreating cold air, coming through during the day. If we even got frozen it would probably be white rain. Next Friday has a little more potential in my opinion with (maybe) a wave tracking under us with some fresher cold.
  25. Probably about a quarter to a half inch of nice fluffy stuff here in Takoma Park. Really made the scene outside a lot prettier.
