  • Great summary Jeff! I have been really busy with all sorts of activities, including getting used to my new rollator walker I got with Marty’s help a week ago. I hope to get all the revision edits together and post the Ellicott City floods on WT sometime this weekend. Will you be able to then slightly modify your May Maryland report to refer to my…[Read more]

  • Thank you Brie! Great to hear more about you and your Maryland connection. And you have been busy in weather on some of your local media outlets there. The only Seattle on-air met I knew of for years is the recently retired Jeff Renner, who has written a few books on Mountain weather and climatology that particularly piques my interest. I have…[Read more]

  • Thanks for your great report Brie! I enjoy that Pac NW weather so much, esp around this time of the year. We haven’t had it too bad yet here in central Maryland as it has been wet and relatively cool of late so far in June. We had a warm and wet May. If we can keep the clouds and rain around, it won’t get too hot, but I am sure it will eventually…[Read more]

  • Thanks Jeff. Looks like Mt Hood is wearing its hat today! Snow level still looks pretty low – I guess there is patchy cover at Timberline Lodge now after your warm month. Is it the resolution of the photo, my computer, or was it hazy on this day of the picture? I don’t think you all have started your fire season yet. Here in Maryland we are nice…[Read more]

  • I have been bogged down with a lot to do the past few days, and have had quite an erratic sleep schedule. The weather has had me hopping, and Marty was over on Friday to get my VP2 station squared away along with […]
