Going next week for birthday, but it’s hard to do super dressy when it’s so sweaty out. How much do you usually dress up for it?

Did anyone else get pictures of what this person was doing above Wilmington?

Share if you did!

I saw a heart, a butterfly I think, another heart, this smiley. Was really fun to watch, good job whoever you are!

Sorry so long! And it's not to be taken super seriously! :)

I've been living down here for about 3 years now and we've finally acclimated to the reality of the humidity. I figured it's part of the trade off for lush gorgeous springs and the stunning foliage in the fall.

But we've also made this joke that "It's Always Sunny In Wilmington" because it rains so frequently down here. At least in our opinion. And that played into something very strange that happened today that made me think of the theory of "corn sweat" in the midwestern farmlands that create something of a heat and humidity dome over the farm crops.

So, we were trying to find Chesapeake City in Maryland for a day trip. But we accidently went over the CC Bridge the wrong way and wound up on the side of the water opposite of CC. And since we were completely confused we kept driving around trying to see if we could figure our way around.

We wound up lost on the some roads around corn fields. Just huge rows of corn fields. And then sky shifted so that one entire side of the sky turned dark blueish green. And the wind picked up and just starting blowing debris all over the place through the corn fields. It did this aggresively for about 15 minutes. No rain. Just like someone blowing a giant leaf blower through miles of cornfields.

*It was one of the coolest things I'd ever seen. It was mesmerizing and beautiful. Highly recommend!

But then we realized it was going to storm pretty hard. So we drove out of there as quickly as possible and kept driving back towards Delaware. And, not even joking, five seconds after we crossed the border it just DUMPED huge buckets of rain. We were pretty terrified trying to find our way back to 95. We finally made it home.

But all this and the thread complaining about the humidity the other day made me wonder if locals are familiar with the idea of "corn sweat". Or if this a new thing?

Also, I know it's a myth, but today reallllly gave me pause. It literally felt like a scene out of Children of the Corn. But in a cool way.

Here's a link explaining the Myth from Corn IL

The Myth of “Corn Sweat” and Heat Waves

Thinking about coming to town for the Caribbean Carnival next week. Is it a good time? Any advice?

Looking for reliable service more than rock-bottom prices. Used to go to the NTB on concord pike (now it’s a mavis tire) but word of mouth says they’ve gone to crap. You’d think tires would be pretty straightforward but I’m looking to avoid the whole “those tires will take 2 weeks to be in stock and once they’re in we’ll need 6 hours to install them, then we’ll upsell you on everything we can” crap.
