A low of 51 degrees this morning! Absolutely beautiful!

Would track for our area's luck of late.

The shear over the Caribbean is nuts so nothing gonna come through there. I'd watch 20-30N and west of 50-55W for anything to get going beyond 10 days. Big plume of dust coming across over the next week or so. Climo ramping up as we move through August so will be interesting to see what can get going with developing and already strong El-Nino.

Enjoy the sunshine today clouds look to build back Saturday afternoon and linger throughout much of the Sun - Wed period with next rain from southerly flow and cut off low to our west Mon-Tue. Hot/Humid beyond there.

Nothing on the 7 day horizon but that may change by 8/8 with the Atlantic ridge established could increase FL- EC risk

Last of the showers finally rotated through here about 10:30 last night. Picked up an additional .04". July ended up with 8.99" here and that is on the lower side for my area. Looks like another general 1" of rainfall next week. Locally higher amounts possible. Nice day today!

I have some awesome pics of mammatus that I snapped in NoVA, from over the past 1-2 decades when we lived there...my favorite wx phenomenon to photograph.

Yeah I don’t care too much about the backyard…especially the back half of the back by the woods where all of the fruit and nut trees are. I cut it early in the spring back there and that has been it. It’s a meadow around the pawpaws. Lots of crickets and tree frogs with the field grass and clover going to see. The wife gets what she wants out front with the biweekly mowings. Although it has slowed way down this past month from that lack of rain.

These are INCREDIBLE pics, TY for sharing!!!!

More of the same....every week has featured a big rain event going back to early July

The GFS seems to be pretty insistent that something might pop and at least get close to the CONUS before a recurve.

The GFS has been pretty insistent something develops and heads at least in the general direction of the CONUS. We'll see.

Got a nice drink (2"+) from Arthur with little wind. 200 miles east, Public Lands' Cutler tract had lots of trees flattened. Had 0.09" overnight, event total 0.16". From Tuesday thru yesterday, each subsequent QPF was lower than the previous one, finally fixing on <0.1" for both yesterday and last night - both verified.

Rain incoming. Hopefully a soaker this morning.

Wow, that's wild.

I'd actually be shocked if the ICON wasn't

3.18" for the total at CEF.

i love the rain because i am pure of heart and soul

Despite a short heat wave near the 4th of July, this month turned out cooler and drier compared to last year at my cooperative observation site (RSTM2). July 2025 - 16, 90 degree days & monthly precip total of 6.5" July 2026 - 10, 90 degree days & monthly precip total of 3.6"

Euro also has something just not as robust.. ICON also faintly seeing it

97-98 was not half bad for the Great Lakes/SNE if i remember correctly. December ‘97 was decent here while it was a total shutout in 2015.
