My sump pump is firing off every 68 seconds under house from all this rain!!! So glad it’s done for a bit.  
Is old creaky still alive? 

It is!! All of my trees survived, lots of branches down however, spent the last few hours doing some cleanup. Definitely needs to cool down soon however...My grass has had a growth spike and the frogs were croaking last night!!

Wore out my welcome a bit yesterday, so I thought I would take a little break. That and the power outage which is still ongoing. Then I saw the 18z and knew I was needed!

Even the NWS loves Leslie Nielson

 
Strange wording in hourly observations...."suh-nee". I think that's how it's pronounced. Admittedly, this was disorienting. Asked my smartphone, "Surely, this can't be true?". The phone replied "Yes, it is. And don't call me Shirley". Doh! It was in airplane mode. #wawx #dadjokes

Op runs don’t really matter that much. It’s just one run in an ensemble of many runs. That was one thing I learned awhile back when I joined the forums a couple years back. I always took the euro and gfs operational runs as scripture of what would really happen. You’ll go crazy chasing each run 2-4 times a day freaking out over each one.

You would think that the people in this forum who have been looking at these models for years would have learned that by now.  You would think.

A lot of the people being dramatic today know this very well. This website is just trolls trolling trolls.

Operational runs are valuable in that they aren’t stand alone entities. The ensembles are simply perturbed versions of the operational.

Doesn't mean the 18z isn’t completely out to lunch, but it also doesn’t mean that it’s not a plausible outcome. The road is getting a little bumpy...

Might have to use 4x4 to make it to Walgreens then.

We come from the land of the ice and snow.

18z Ensemble is colder than the 12z, especially out this way. Deep breaths everyone.

12z.

Power just came back on-- what a weird windstorm. Just some howling west winds for an hour or so that were strong enough to down a bunch of trees in this area. Overall a pretty interesting event, south winds were underwhelming but that surge of westerlies made up for it.
