aldie 22 Posted July 4, 2024 Share Posted July 4, 2024 Finally some decent rain. We ran out during and the oils in the street were foaming up...it has been awhile 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronTy Posted July 4, 2024 Share Posted July 4, 2024 Looks like we're about to get blasted in DC. Finally, we need to wash the old built up dog pee off the sidewalks so I can walk my dog without him stopping to sniff every 10sec. I hope. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronTy Posted July 4, 2024 Share Posted July 4, 2024 That was a major bust, all it did was drizzle and probably spread the dog pee all over the sidewalks. Guess I gotta hold out hope for round 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskimo Joe Posted July 5, 2024 Share Posted July 5, 2024 There are so many fireworks going off in my neighborhood that my Tempest thinks it's raining from the ashfall. This is insane. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowfan Posted July 5, 2024 Share Posted July 5, 2024 Seems like most years now the DC fireworks are ruined by stagnant air. Part of the reason I stopped going….not dealing w those crowds just to get smoky pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nw baltimore wx Posted July 5, 2024 Share Posted July 5, 2024 I got a pretty good soaking but no way I’m heading out to check on how much until morning. Sounds like a war in my hood. I have never understood the appeal of personal fireworks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87storms Posted July 5, 2024 Share Posted July 5, 2024 Finally made it to baker for the 4th. Quite a turnout. I don’t think it rained at all here today. Maybe some scraps earlier. In other news, fireworks are still poppin off…like loud at times lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
