  • This will be our final trip to camp for the season and as usual, I hate to see it end.  Tomorrow has rain in the forecast for both here at home and Indian River.  I hope that it isn’t raining when we get t […]

  • A week ago the UK Met Office and Met Éireann (the Met Office for the Republic of Ireland) announced the names of the winter storms for the 2018/2019 season starting off with Ali, then as in the case of the […]

    • Harry, that’s a pretty dramatic lighthouse picture. Your weather looks about as bad as ours.

    • Greetings Harry! Thanks for your post. I sure have missed hearing from you about your daily station data and/or monthly summary for August. Are you having problems? I have had problems of late myself, with my station down most of the time the past week so I have not posted during that time till a brief report this past Tuesday the 18th. My friend Marty came over on Tuesday and installed a new VP2 circuit board and now so far I have been up and running ever since. Perhaps you are still having periodic internet connection issues as Nathan mentioned to me a few weeks ago.

      We recently endured quite a stormy spell here on much of the coast of the Eastern United States, particularly in the Carolinas from tropical system FLORENCE. As the remnant storm system was moving away from our area and out into the Atlantic I heard of forecasts of it maintaining some sort of circulation over the North Atlantic and possibly paying a visit to the British Isles. Have you heard any discussions of this on your side of the Big Pond? I always find it fascinating to follow those tropical systems from the United States area that make it to Europe in some form or other.

      Take care and hope to hear more from you soon,
      Kevin

  • My apologies for not pasting a daily blog report from my station since Tuesday, September 11. I have had problems with my VP2 and it has been down more than up over the past week. My friend Marty came over on […]

  • In this blog, I’ll touch on what I’ve interpreted as widespread, sensationalized coverage of Hurricane/Tropical Storm/Tropical Depression/Post-Tropical Storm Florence. While Florence has absolutely been the […]

    • I’ve seen this trend develop over the years. Particularly with minor snow ‘storms’, such as the kind we often get in the Pacific Northwest. I clearly remember one year when we were expecting a brief wintry mix in Portland overnight, and the networks immediately started running “WINTER STORM COVERAGE” and “BREAKING WEATHER” all over the headlines.

    • Thank you Holly for the compliments and the link. They will need all the donations they can get. Unfortunately, Moody’s updated their damage estimates from 38-50 billion dollars… we have to find ways to be better prepared and lessen the impact from these storms.

    • It’s a shame when one can’t depend on the News media, including the Weather Channel, to give you straight talk about what’s happening. This has definitely become a trend in this country.

  • This is like our sixth in a row.  Our highs have been in the low to mid 80s and that makes for very uncomfortable days.  I’m really ready for it to cool off.   Next week should see more seasonable weather but wit […]

  • We did have a little fog early but it dissipated quickly when the sun came up.  I’m afraid that our warm days are coming to an end as the forecast for next week doesn’t seem that promising.  We know that it c […]

  • This is getting to be a habit.  Once again our visibility early this morning was near zero miles in some places.  I’m glad that I didn’t have to go anywhere early.  Our skies now have cleared and temps are wa […]

  • We woke to visibility at less than quarter of a mile this morning.  This has been common over the past three days.  Yesterday was cloudy most of the day and I’m hoping to see more sun today.  We are starting to se […]

  • Hurricane Florence is currently just offshore the North Carolina coast, and North Carolina is absolutely getting hammered as she slowly trudges onshore. As you would expect, the coast has been the hardest hit thus […]
