MN Transplant Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 .6 in the gauge. Good thing I watered the trees and left the grill cover off last night. I managed to leave the grill wide open last night. Temp 2 lower than yesterday at DCA, but DP up 13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 I just saw that. I didn't know such comments came during summer too. Glad I only work during the winter. Granted I wish I could take back the comment on summer forecasting being easy even tho I meant days like yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freestater Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 What causes thunder to have such a wide variety of sounds? Last night I heard several variations of rumble, pop-booms, and hollow sounding noises that were almost like listening to thunder through a seashell.

Topography and distance affects the sounds greatly. It's very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always assumed that the sound generated was uniform across the length of the bolt, but this must not be the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usedtobe Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Dang. Did you see the story of the 130lb catfish caught in SVa? Yes, and they say blue cats are in the Potomac. I've caught some over 5 lbs.
