CAPE Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 2 hours ago, WinterWxLuvr said: It definitely feels tropical out there. Was thinking I’m crazy but it smells tropical also. The heat and humidity today is because the region is in the warm sector of the low that moved from the OV last night, heading up to S Canada today. There is actually a weak cold front that will move through later today and it should temporarily lower the dew points tonight into early tomorrow, especially for northern and western parts of the area.

SomeguyfromTakomaPark Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 88/78, just went for a 10k run which needless to say was a big mistake. Completely drenched would be a significant understatement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ofc it never actually feels like Fall around here until early October- sometimes. Finished July with 6.30" of rain. Yeah Fall here seems to come after October 10th lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McHenry...we’ve been spending most of the summer here since I’m able to work remotely. This is the busiest I’ve seen Deep Creek...I’m sure with COVID, its caused people to look for vacations that are driveable vs flying somewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just waiting to purchase to my beach house and live out of there... Decision on NC or MD/DE at this point. Deep Creek is fun but I always found it weird how it would be in the 70s in the summer and it freaked me out given I'm a warm and tropical weenie. Depends if end up moving to RVA I suppose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrinceFrederickWx Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Currently storming here again, so yet another sleepless night. It’s been almost a carbon copy of the July 6-7 event- 0.29” in the 11pm storm, and now an additional 1.11” (and counting) in the last hour with the second storm. I have no doubt this month will be double-digits just like the previous one (and probably my rainiest month ever). The last 9 months or so have convinced me I need to move out of this state- I can’t stand the climo here anymore. (There’s other reasons for moving too, but I won’t get into that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winters and early spring are cold, rainy and miserable (but usually not cold enough to snow). Peak spring (generally mid-April through early June) has potential for decent weather but we usually either blowtorch it or go too cold. 2014 notwithstanding, it’s pretty clear the new normal for July is an unbearable inferno with insane dewpoints. Springs and summers generally oscillate back and forth between droughts and deluges, punctuated by severe storms that always occur at the worst times. I posted data awhile back about the September creep- September is basically a summer month now. The only time for potentially nice weather (other than May) is around October. I can’t think of any other region in the US that has a worse climo than ours, other than maybe the Gulf states or parts of the southeast. Just my opinion. I don’t judge climo solely on snowfall either btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baltimorewx Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Those showers racing up out of southern VA should be up here for the late afternoon. Should make for some decent downpours around and after 4pm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dailylurker Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Sitting out here watching the clouds start rolling in from the south. Bit of a breeze kicking up in the past few minutes as well. Weird vibe out here. Birds seems rather quiet. Something is definitely on the horizon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
