1.12” of much needed, and somewhat surprise rain this morning. Working to keep that drought at arms length

Yeah this is a steining to remember. I’m with Tblizz. Not even sure we get a quarter inch.

55/ 54 steady rain 1.67 in the bucket. Miserable day / Memorial Day weekend. Rain looks to taper off by 2:00 for most sooner west. HIghs capped in the 50s today. Pokes of sun , showers and back to the 70s for Memorial Day itself. Clouds lingering Tue/Wed for the most part but much warmer . Sunny by Thu and near normal. Weekend cut off has hopefully trended more north and less chance of unsettled weather in a week 5/30 - 5/31, but not 100% sold we dont have another potential ruined weekend. Ridge building east and this more stuck up Omega-ish pattern should flatten and next round of warmth / potential heat 6/4 - beyond.

Raleigh precip shield has held strong

.28” so far here since yesterday. what a ragged looking mess on radar, heaviest rain getting pushed south.

1.30” in Syosset so far.

We also kicked the heat on the first floor zone last night. Currently 50 with light rain. We put up some decent numbers from 4-8:30 a.m; over an 1” now.

1.02 for today. 3.39 total

I’m not having that problem with Wunderground. I can see, for example, that today is the fourth consecutive day that we haven’t seen the sun.

1.3 here too.

He already has too many spouses for me

Don’t engage

They had a good video on social's showing them prepping Superstar this year for the final weekend.

1 inch since midnight. Approaching 2 inch storm total.

There’s like another 24hrs of rain periods to go.

Up to 1.08 now

Idk what happened to wxunderground, but it changed and it no longer displays history. So, idk what fell here on W and Th. Got .9 Fri and .4 yesterday. We missed all the good stuff on Wed. So, maybe 2.5" total for the event. Very beneficial, but it's a drop in the bucket of what we need. If it's not followed up by another significant event soon, this will all be just a distant, dusty memory as soon as the next death ridge builds.

Full on soaker here.

Yeah, we bone dry here. Not even enough to wet under the trees. Probably going to have to go out and water later still

Laughable.

That was a typo. The record low was 44 in 1963.

Low of 49 and exactly 1.00” of additional rainfall, bringing my four day total to an even 2.00”. Love it.

4.17” total much more than I expected
