  1. Sure looks like the mesos are going to nail today with a gap between DC and the Pa line.
  2. Dews are 8-10F less IMBY than yesterday. Storms popping out west, we’ll see how they evolve. 16z Hrrr makes me sad.
  3. We’re going to Orlando, not the beach at least. Still would like to avoid tropical action.
  4. Wouldn’t mind fairly quiet tropics for my OCMD trip at the end of July and then FL trip in early August. Then it can go nuts.
  5. 3k NAM looks generally similar with most action for DC and points south.
  6. Soooo into that! BWI average high temps start declining on Saturday!!
  7. We've been under the ridge axis, so plenty of moisture and instability streams to our west and north but we get scraps. Ridge will push out on Saturday. Tomorrow probably some activity as well.
  8. So awesome to watch Trey Mancini last night. Even though he came just short, that was a really fun derby.
  9. My parents in Bel Air said that storm last evening was the most intense one they’ve had in a long time. Torrential rain and lots of close lightning.
  10. The storm in eastern BaltCo and Harford took all the mojo. That looks like a beast.
  11. Moderate rain with the sun shining. Pretty disappointing given the radar depiction an hour ago, but I’ll take the rain and the 10F cooler temps.
  12. Yeah it’s having trouble crossing Rt29. Finally starting to in last couple radar frames. Thunder, lightning, and outflow here but no rain yet.
  13. Hearing some thunder but taking it’s sweet time to get here. Need it to cool things off. A refreshing 88F inside my house.
  14. Getting close but not here yet
  15. Let’s hope things keep popping
  16. Outflow dropping south is initiating new activity. Have to see how far it gets.
  17. But I guess good enough for a STW for north of DC.
  18. Just nothing happening in the metro corridor.
  19. Our location seems very much on the edge. Fingers crossed. GFS is pretty much dry through Friday before a wet weekend. eta…and the new SPC puts us on the southern edge of the Slight.
  20. Plant milkweed! They seem to like butterfly milkweed more than common milkweed when I look around the neighborhood, but YMMV. Common, swamp, and butterfly milkweeds are the best choices. There’s a certain critical mass of milkweed you need before the monarchs will lay eggs on them. Doesn’t have to be a huge amount, but one small plant won’t do it. Also have some other plants and things nearby where the chrysalis can hang. We’ve yet to find any chrysalis despite 20 some caterpillars last year.
  21. I’ve seen 2 monarch caterpillars on our butterfly weed so far. Hoping for many more.
