Another springlike chasing mess

By From http://stormsrus.blogspot.com/ • May 15th, 2014 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

I didn’t hold out high hopes for chasing conditions today given the amount of rain forecast (flood watches were posted well ahead of time) and the limited instability. Sure enough we wound up with an early squall line that was pretty much unbroken as i…

Another local chase…or spot

By From http://stormsrus.blogspot.com/ • May 14th, 2014 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

Given today’s setup with a bit of instability, no cap, and almost no shear I chose not to chase. Of course with no cap a number of storms fired early, one of which cut short my afternoon stroll around a local park. As the rain and thunder approached I …

By From http://fredericksburgrealestateblog.com • May 13th, 2014 • Category: Blog Entries.Local, RealEstate.Local

One of the most common reasons buyers want to deal directly with the seller is because they feel they can save the commission. It’s a valid consideration but interestingly, it’s the same reason the seller isn’t employing an agent; they feel they can save the commission. Both parties cannot save the commission. The buyer feels […]



Dominion Abbey Ale

By From http://www.musingsoverapint.com/ • May 12th, 2014 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

Abbey Ale is the latest release in the Dominion Brewing “Pinup Series.” The slightly irreverent artwork actually has some basis in history. It was a Benedictine nun, Hildegard von Bingen (1098 – 1179), the Abbess of Diessenberg, who first wrote ab…



Sped up video from Saturday’s chase

I finally had the opportunity to view and edit the videos I took during yesterday’s “static core punch”. The southern end of a line segment passed over my position with gusty winds and heavy rain but no hail even tho’ the VIL indicated that it might ha…

This is the fourth Mother’s Day since my mom passed away. I can’t call her to wish her a Happy Mother’s Day, or tell her how much I love her. I was sitting here thinking, what else I might say if I could talk to her once more. One additional thought do…
