My brother was at the game last night too... he was down the 1B line And congrats Nats fans...

But ends up having another nice rainer Monday-Tuesday of next week for us

Melissa was able to transition from a STS to a TS before becoming post-tropical soon Tropical Storm Melissa Discussion Number 6 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL142019 500 PM AST Sat Oct 12 2019 Convection has continued to persist near the center of Melissa throughout the day, and only in the past few hours have the affects of increasing westerly shear begun to erode the convection from the western side of the cyclone. A pair of scatterometer passes late this morning showed that the wind field associated with the storm had contracted, with the strongest winds occurring within 50 n mi of the center. They also revealed that the radius of maximum winds had decreased to 20 n mi. Based on these data along with a tropical structure apparent in satellite and microwave data, it is likely that Melissa completed a transition to a tropical cyclone at some point this morning. A recent Dvorak classification from TAFB, an objective estimate from UW-CIMSS ADT, and an earlier scatterometer pass all support an initial intensity of 45 kt for this advisory. The westerly shear beginning to affect Melissa is expected to gradually increase over the next few days. Through tonight, the cyclone will move over waters of 23-24 C. In addition, the upper trough over the storm that has aided in maintaining its convection will weaken and lift northeast of the cyclone over the next day or so. The combination of these factors should cause Melissa to weaken, and the cyclone is forecast to become a post-tropical remnant low by Sunday. The global model intensity forecasts appear to be capturing the strongest winds in a frontal zone well-removed to the northeast of Melissa and not directly associated with the cyclone itself. Thus, the NHC forecast is very similar to the previous one, and continues to be lower than the global model guidance. Melissa is moving east-northeastward, or 070/10 kt. The increasing westerly flow will cause the cyclone to gradually accelerate through Monday. This motion will continue, with a slight turn to the east in a few days, just before the cyclone is absorbed by a frontal zone. The new NHC track forecast is close to the previous one and in the middle of the various consensus aids. Ongoing hazards from coastal flooding will continue to be covered by non-tropical products from local National Weather Service forecast offices. Key Messages: 1. Although Melissa is forecast to weaken and move away from the east coast, minor to moderate coastal flooding is still expected along portions of the U.S. Mid-Atlantic and southeastern coasts around times of high tide for the remainder of the weekend.

Good placement of the HP for some early winter precip too

lol

Hope the day gets better for you

Hard Freeze Warnings are in effect for the TX panhandle and the OK panhandle for tonight with lows in the 20s and wind chills might reach as low as the upper single digits per the Amarillo WFO... even a slight chance of some light snow down there too tonight... wow

At least we made it to back to back World Series... lets see if the Nats have... oh wait

Will they finally be able to win in the first round tonight? Or will they pull a Caps and blow it?

It was raining enough at Nats Park I guess that Collier, the Nats Twitter writer, said he hoped that they didnt see the Skittles tarp tonight

Oh, so not missing you tonight lol

Apparently it's raining at Nats Park

Hopefully the EPS will support

Lol Nats

BA in Geography (non-GIS)

I am pretty good with a computer youngling . Might be able to teach even you a thing or two... have all those shortcut codes memorized in Microsoft Word and PowerPoint... like CTRL P and CTRL Z

Well yes, but you could still probably get away with it today to be honest... not many professors are that tough on size of paragraphs that I remember... only thing the professor would check for was if you were plagiarizing

Well I didnt graduate that long ago lol... graduated from Mason in 2009

We should start impeachment proceedings as to why the site is down again

Or you could do what I did... if you're paper was to be double spaced... I made it 2.2" to make the paper look longer

Looks like it lol

If only... always 10 days away on the EURO... 850 temp analomy of 5-7C below normal

@nj2va and other Cap fans -- https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/2019/10/pheonix-copley-headlines-three-players-on-waivers.html Also... just saw on Twitter that Reirden says that Samsonov will be the goalie and make his NHL debut on Friday when the Caps play the Islanders

From the afternoon AFD as of 3:00 pm:

That's the website I couldn't think of but knew was somewhere in my weather bookmarks... thanks
