Thinking game 1 might not be till Saturday as Wizards are playing at home on Friday for Game 6 Expand Yeah, you're probably right. I hadn't thought of that. The game 7 in the Boston Toronto series helps everyone that's finished their series too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still raining here and at high for the day at 52.2/50.9, wind E at 6 gusting to 15. EDIT- about .8 in gauge since the 7 am dump, about 1.3 since it started late yesterday afternoon.

Multiple pulses, dark swirling clouds, all. Besides that, the climate for severe weather has really changed in this area since the early 2000s. For example, it's almost May and there hasn't been a storm and it really hasn't been close. It has been a cold pattern but where are the cumulus clouds? In the 1990s it was also much different.

AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Classic +AO/5-waves ridging around coming up. Then it transforms 2x to eventually our early May warm up, +5-7 waves Northern Hemisphere both times. Pretty cool pattern shift, we saw none of this in the Winter or Fall.

Jandurin Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Yeah corded is insane. I'm also mowing over 1/3 of an acre so that'd be some cord This is my first entry into battery powered vehicles.

Ellinwood Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I got a battery-powered motor for my small lawn last fall. Nowadays they're more lightweight than gas push mowers, and the higher capacity batteries will give you a good 25-30+ minutes of run time (and they charge pretty quick). Electric still doesn't have quite the power that gas mowers have, but it's good enough. Just don't go cheap on electric... you certainly get what you pay for.

nw baltimore wx Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Franchise curses are ridiculous fan superstition, but something about this franchise's history transcends from team to team and they make it their own. No way you should squander a two goal lead in the third period in the playoffs at home unless something's not right in the head. I made a post the other day that one day through luck and unlikely scenario the Caps would win a Cup, but I think that I should add that it'll only happen when they don't the play the Penguins in the playoffs. When it comes to the Penguins, we've got the ipps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Just keep up on the mowing, dont let the grass get too tall. We have had a decent amount of rain in the past 14 days. Every time my grass gets 3 inches tall I'll mow it.
