Skins24 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Bumping for the eclipse. Still too early to say for sure, but currently the long range models are looking good and pretty clear for the eclipse on the 8th. At least for the DMV. Just need it to stay that way.....

skinsmarydu Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 I was out for about 20 minutes (just had to grab a couple things for the weekend), and I'm wrecked by pollen. So is everyone else, the guy in the convenience store was in absolute misery. And, of course, I forgot to get allergy stuff. 😬 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year I made the mistake of buying the allergy medicine from Sam’s club. I’ll be good for the next 20 years assuming it never expires. Oh, what’s that? It does expire? **** me.

Even if it expires, it's okay, just a little less potent (says mom, the nurse). We've got both pollen & humidity today. This sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins24 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) Though the NWS has a very slight chance of very scattered showers on Monday, all the models are currently rain free. Even if we had a pop up shower, it wouldn't last long. I currently think we should still be good in the DMV. Probably won't be 100% sunny for the eclipse, but we should be OK! Lettuce pray 🙏 Edited April 7 by Skins24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Huge Saharan dust blob cooling eastern Atlantic A huge plume of Saharan dust is now visible on satellite loops coming off of Africa into the eastern Tropical Atlantic Ocean. This, combined with stronger than normal easterly winds of the Saharan Desert, is helping cool part of the far Eastern Atlantic, where the seeds for some hurricane season storms originate. While the suspended dust makes for hazy skies and—when it falls down—can result in a very dusty ground over land, there is an upside. The haze blocks out the sun and helps cools the ocean surface. That’s good because surface ocean temperatures in the main (hurricane) development region of the Atlantic have been running deep into record hot territory. The map below shows above normal sea surface temperatures in red, which is basically the whole Tropical Atlantic.

China Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Rare ‘backward-spinning’ tornado among twisters wreaking havoc in Oklahoma Tuesday There have been dozens of tornadoes sighted across the Plains and Midwest over the past week in a relentless severe weather pattern, but one tornado in particular has the meteorology community buzzing after Doppler radar indicated it was spinning "backward" from typical tornadoes. "Radar detected some strange things (Tuesday) night," FOX Weather Meteorologist Stephen Morgan said. The tornado was one of multiple indicated in Oklahoma’s Tillman County near Loveland on Tuesday evening just after 10 p.m. CT. In addition to tracking rain and hail, Doppler radar can measure the wind speed and direction inside storms. Tornadoes are usually indicated when radar scans show a rapid twisting of the winds in a counterclockwise direction, the same as a low-pressure center. But on Tuesday evening, radar indicated two tornadoes in proximity near Loveland, one of which showed rapid spin in a clockwise direction – likely an "anticyclonic" tornado. "(Tuesday) night, radar detected an anticyclonic satellite tornado, meaning it spun the other direction … and rotated around what you could call a ‘normal’ tornado," Morgan said. "What we saw …. was very rare." A FOX Forecast Center analysis of historical data indicates that less than 2% of all tornadoes across the U.S. spin clockwise. "The reason tornadoes are cyclonic (counterclockwise) is because of the Coriolis force," FOX Weather Senior Meteorologist Jordan Overton said, referencing how the rotation of the Earth will make low-pressure centers spin counterclockwise.
