midatlanticweather Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 I am all messed up for the weekend. On the Fourth of July, where we celebrate the Independence from England, I am actually rooting for a model that is partially produced by the UK! It is Ironic! LOL!

nw baltimore wx Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 I thought I was getting heat hardened until I went out for a couple of hours on the bike this afternoon. It was brutal, and I need a tub of ice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nw baltimore wx Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 That car is toast. Another 25 feet and it looks even worse. This all reminds me, how is your car @North Balti Zen? And I’m not suggesting that you deliberately drove into high water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 All good. All warning lights off and driving well. Took about four days. Didn’t have to make a claim. Very fortunate. On an unrelated note, I am on vacation at Beaver Island - which is about 30 miles into Lake Michigan northwest of charlevoix , Michigan - maybe 50 miles south of the UP. Real heat wave here today - hit 74. That’s the hottest it will be this week. This vacation rules. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Balti Zen Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 53 minutes ago, CAPE said: Had about 30 hours of rain here for the first part of the trip/ arrival at the island mentioned in my previous post. Slipped through southern lower Michigan Friday as all hell was starting to break loose there on radar. Saw on Saturday that Detroit had about six inches of rain Friday night and there were estimates of about 1000 cars caught in significant urban flooding - and a lot of those on the various interstates under overpasses especially where no one had seen high water before. I really think that the aspect of global climate change that we are feeling first is these unreal rain events surrounding stalled fronts and waves of moisture along the lows. Issue in Michigan was they were caught between that brutal high in the pacific NW and a high anchored over the weekend off the east coast. Funneled a lot of moisture up this way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nj2va Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Those two quarterfinal games yesterday were epic - so happy for the Swiss with that hard fought comeback after missing the PK in the 1st half (and France turning right around and tying it).

Think I’m gonna open up the Firestone parabola in a few minutes. I also bought a barrel aged cookie/coffee/cacao stout from pherm brewing a couple weekends ago but that one is a bomber bottle so that’s a weekend sipper!

That was awesome as a 16 year old. Was a small block, but had factor side pipes that sounded great, and burned your calves on exiting if you didn't pay attention. The second thing with a stick I drove was a Ford F-9000 dump truck that took both feet to operate the clutch (well, sort of... it was a beast) and no power steering.
