  1. Tiny shower over us- it finds every possible way to rain here.
  2. A trend I’ve noticed in the last 10-15 years now is that (for whatever reason) late May / early June often features our best weather of the year; sunny and cooler than average.
  3. The previous photo I posted, but adjusted even darker. This more closely approximates what it looked like in person. (I'm still learning photo editing)
  4. It doesn’t even matter if sunny is in the forecast anymore, I just assume every day will be cloudy and 60’s (like today yet again lol)
  5. LOL no… it’s been back to drizzling as usual
  6. I could just write “cloudy with drizzle, highs in the 60’s” for the Calvert forecast and be right probably about 300 days of the year now.
  7. It wasn’t supposed to rain here today but it is.
  8. I feel like the default all year now IMBY is 60's, clouds and rain. We're like the Pacific northwest now.
  9. Someone start a countdown thread for the mid-Atlantic: https://abcnews.go.com/amp/International/smoke-canadian-wildfires-reaches-us-minnesota-air-quality/story?id=110149929
  10. 100% clouds here and it sounds like it’s a bust for tonight anyway… punting and going all in for tomorrow hopefully.
  11. I can’t believe I’m fretting over clouds and checking hourly forecasts just a month after the eclipse. I thought I didn’t have to do this for at least another few years.
  12. We need to get Sunday night into Monday; that would be prime viewing IMBY.
  13. Nice clear skies here, can’t wait for the clouds to move in again tonight to ruin it again. This is like the universe’s payback for my lucky eclipse and Great Conjunction breaks lol
  14. We're thinking of going to coastal Maine next March to try for this one at sunrise: https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/usa/portland-me?iso=20250329 Here's the whole map: No one gets totality but we're into partials too. :-) https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/map/2025-march-29 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_eclipse_of_March_29,_2025
  15. Took this at Sylvan Heights Bird Park in Scotland Neck, NC last week. This was our second time there and I highly recommend it. This is a Victoria Crowned Pigeon (one of our favorite birds).
  16. Imagine having code purple air quality alerts from the Canadian wildfire redux while looking at the forecast cone for category 5 Hurricane William coming up the Bay.
  17. Yeah I saw Play and Icelandair go direct from BWI to Reykjavik. Much shorter flight than I expected too! I may PM you with some questions at some point if you’re ok with that.
  18. We’re considering taking the clouds risk and going to iceland in 2026 anyway. I’ve never traveled internationally but it’s always been a country I’d like to see. The eclipse would just be a bonus.
  19. That might be it, the AirNow map has a small, darker area from southeast of Fredericksburg into King George and Charles, with some yellows (everywhere surrounding it is green). I’m not smelling it anymore now at least.
  20. …I think I’m getting faint whiffs of a wildfire smell again?
  21. I’d definitely be interested in having a thread to discuss all future eclipses. I’ve been researching them all a lot.
  22. My only picture of totality. This shot was overexposed and too bright in my iPhone, but it cleaned up decent after being darkened in my editor at home. It's nowhere near as good as most of the pics you all took, but it was all I had to work with given a malfunctioning iPhone and only 2.5 minutes. Nothing at all compares to seeing it with the naked eye though.
