Super User Sam Posted June 30, 2014 Super User Posted June 30, 2014 91L may turn into a tropical depression and have a negative impact on the Atlantic coast from north Florida to New England. Keep an eye on it if you are like me, and heading to the Outer Banks for the Fourth of July. www.wxrisk.com is following the storm and has excellent reports. Quote
Super User Sam Posted June 30, 2014 Author Super User Posted June 30, 2014 Facebook has a better view and explanation of what is going on. David seems not to have found the time to update his web page. https://www.facebook.com/notes/wxriskcom/-increasing-odds-of-east-coast-tropical-storm-or-sub-tropical-storm-july-4th-wee/710604768986784?ref=notif¬if_t=notify_me Quote
Super User MCS Posted June 30, 2014 Super User Posted June 30, 2014 I wouldn't call it a negative impact. These ponds and lakes need water and a good flushing. Plus the tropical storms have turned the big girls on in the past. I welcome the rain. Bring it on!!! Quote
Super User Sam Posted June 30, 2014 Author Super User Posted June 30, 2014 Wow, MCS! Our pools and lakes are at full pool up here in Virginia. Rivers are doing well, too. Sorry to hear you guys are short some rain. Hope this storm gives you all some relief. Quote
Super User Darren. Posted June 30, 2014 Super User Posted June 30, 2014 Fingers crossed it stays out to sea! Or is just a "storm" without the damaging side of things. 2 Quote

Sorry to hear you guys are short some rain. Hope this storm gives you all some relief. I bet y'all had all that snow this winter. This beginning of summer for us just hasn't yielded the daily thunderstorms as usual in longevity or number. Lots of the ponds are high 80's and stagnent. Gar and cats at the shore bass hunkered down. I agree Darren some rain would be welcome but keep the damaging winds away! Quote

Gar and cats at the shore bass hunkered down. I agree Darren some rain would be welcome but keep the damaging winds away! I've got about 13 big pines in my yard (among a number of other trees) - the hard-pine (can be used as flooring, so a tree man told me) in close proximity to my house. These pines are all over 100 feet tall, and way too close for comfort. I've got two giants 15 feet from my front door. Every tropical storm or hurricane that hits us has me worried sick watching them swaying in the wind. Fortunately many of them reside in groves that keep them strong "arm-in-arm". Stood on my back porch steps one day when one up and fell - no storm or anything. Just a loud crack and BOOOM. Amazing stuff. Missed just about everything in my back yard, thankfully. 1 Quote

That is why after 1 yr in Va and a blizzard We moved back down south!!! I tell my wife SC is as far north I will go even that is too cold in the winter, but at least no snow. 1 Quote
Hyrule Bass Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 there was a lot of snow in VA this past winter, more than normal. i missed a lot of work because of it. then 2-3 weeks ago we had a bunch of rain that flooded a lot of roads in Northern VA. It was a nightmare with traffic, as the day everything flooded, i was trying to get out of town to NC that night, after taking a couple detours and what not we finally got on a road that was flowing traffic and not backed up or detoured... anyways, im supposed to head to Smith Mountain Lake for a weekend of fishing tomorrow night, aside from rain tomorrow, everything there looks good for the weekend. it may help that im travelling away from the coast though Quote
