It's crazy how it just won't rain. Congrats PA and central VA. Today looks like another boring non event. Water restrictions and extreme drought are becoming more and more likely with every storm bust.

Only got 0.22 not sure what happened but today isn't looking like a washout now. Go Timberwolves!

Bust. 1/2-3/4" forecast overnight. Reality .02" Doesnt look like much of anything for today either.

So much for getting rain lol. This is unbelievable.

tiny burst of rain over yonkers, we will see what today(friday) brings.

Our cat met his first goose today, lol: Rain is getting close here at 1 am.

Got a good downpour happening near Gainesville tonight.

Prednisone has me wired tonight. Just checked the rain bucket and am thrilled to see we're at .63" with more to come. (12:45am)

Just a question that I have - any answers ? Back in the mid 90s as teen in NW Albemarle , just east of the mountains - I grew up on simple AM/FM radio ... I knew where each FM country station was located on the dial ... This occurred during a strong afternoon thunderstorm with very vivid - almost nonstop lightning , as the storm moved off SE toward Charlottesville I came across a unfamiliar station while scanning through the frequencies, after a few songs the dj came on and said the NWS has issued a tornado watch for all of SE Kansas - 30 % chance of storms capable of producing tornadoes this afternoon... As the lightning faded into the distance that stations FM signal faded... Have always been amazed at that occurrence - knowing that FM signals do not carry that far , usually a 100 miles max... unlike AM signals which can travel a thousand miles especially at night...

sneaky eventful day for Tennessee, that is, with no hype of tornadoes at all today

Today's highs Downtown LA - 81 Long Beach - 78 LAX - 69

.1” rain today.

Despite being in heavy rain multiple times in Charlottesville- heavy rain up Afton down into Eastern Waynesboro, NW edge of town/my backyard 0.02... The usual thunderstorm pattern the last few years....

Better to find now …. I’m not a praying guy but sending positive vibes.

Seventh straight day of measurable here and over 3" so far this month. Far cry from last May with 2.5" for the whole month.

When you finally get out on the golf course again, it’s going to be lift, clean and place.

Just watched the court scene from A Few Good Men before I head off to bed. Almost a quarter inch here so far and I sit right in the crosshairs of this potent little batch approaching. Night all.

My grass seed is floating down the Merrimack. Yard has become a pond.

This didn’t age well. Issued at 3.29p

Same here, ground just got wet

After a quick review, it looks like the early-1900s were more +NAO. This looks more cyclical since the 1890s, and although 3 swings is not much, it may even run in 50-year cycles, which we could actually be in the middle of.

I was using DJFM, but it's interesting to see that there's still only 1 example in 14 years, using DJF. +0.25 is not that much. There isn't NAO data from the 1930s, but imo the 1930s through early 1950s were probably more +NAO.

Thanks, Chuck. Winters (DJF) with avg of sub -0.25 NAO: -16 of 25 (64%) of 1954-5 through 1978-9 -6 of 45 (13%) of 1979-80 through 2024-5 (1984-5, 1986-7, 1995-6, 2009-10, 2010-11, 2020-1)

Oh no, that doesn’t sound great. Really pulling for you Mike. Just know us weather folk are with you all the way.

Euro has a wet look between now and the 23rd.
