Siding, shingles, etc. That's great news. Glad to see at least one resident of the burg donating housing materials. Is WM set up also to confiscate wind blown garbage cans? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typically .25 to .75 is a good amount at a time. 1” plus starts other problems such as increased disease pressure, cart path restrictions and also erosion of sand traps. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 LSV looks lite up with heavy rain....main area of rain already done here. WAYYYYY early. Just 1/3". The meso's were warning the Western LSV was going to get the shaft. Just a 1 hour quick hitter. Sun is already peeking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk I actually do not do that well with snow sometimes either but models were just showing 1/4 to 1/2" here and that is basically what happened but ending/just random showers much sooner than progged. I believe MDT actually had more snow than me this past winter. It is partly cloudy now. The heavier rain is well East of here around the Susq. I think the rain is way ahead timing wise for everyone. Adams starting to stop as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would have thought it would be have stopped already out this way. HRRR has some lighter showers coming through later but 18Z cut way back from 12Z for West LSV.

I’m listening to York County scanner they have a lot of trees down. Also some structural damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yardstickgozinya Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 It was to much to fast here but I am still getting light rain out my way. I would think I am at 1" inch here easy. The big Cats will be biting in the creeks tonight out my way. Going to watch hydrology and probably head out on my kayak and get them sob's at the crack of dawn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yardstickgozinya Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 On 4/21/2023 at 3:04 PM, mahantango#1 said: I don't think they had the proper cooling after I planted them about 90% of them bloomed. Some on the small side. Dug up the tulip bulbs that were in there for about 5 years and purchased new ones from a place in Michigan. But it was mid November when I did all this. So with the winter we had that was on the warm side, I think they didn't receive the proper chilling they require which is about 15 weeks. I'm sure they will look better next spring. I have personally never had stratification issues from bulbs but I guess its possible seeing it was a very warm winter. How did the bulbs do that where there for 5 years ? You should check the soils electrical conductivity and Ph to make sure its in range for what you are growing. If you would like to send me a soil sample I have a professional Ec and ph meter. You can get meters for under $50.00 but there not that accurate. I have a blue lab ec/ph combo meter that I calibrate every few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus they were fighting with each other. I wanted to dig the bed up after 3 years but didn't have the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Started raining a bit here again. Up to .38" now and with my closest NWS station only getting .27 so far, I am not too sad with my total. Some back building and congealing going on from Franklin County and East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More surprising to me is how we missed the storminess - other than the one big strike it's been stratiform light to moderate rainfall from the start. Very beneficial. Hope you get some more too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jns2183 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Off topic but Colorado had their spring game with snow in boulder. Last year it was free and attendance was 1950. This year it was $10 and attendance was over 47,000. Who knows how good deion will be but with the present environment in the CFB landscape he is absolutely the gamble they need to have any chance at returning to relevance.

Mount Joy Snowman Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Really strong winds here when the main line arrived, took me off guard. Have some friends with some tree damage. Rain wasn’t overly heavy though. A little more than a half inch here thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
