CAPE

GEFS concurs (as does the EPS). Canadian HP. Yeah baby! I took Monday off. Gonna explore Conquest Preserve NW of Centreville. Never been.

5.1" for the month after last night. More than double the June total. Needed July to deliver and so far so good.

Guidance suggests early to mid next week(maybe beyond) will be very nice for mid-late July. After the front moves through over the weekend, Canadian HP builds southeastward into a position over NE. Low to mid 80s with reasonable dewpoints will feel like early Fall compared to what we have been dealing with lately.

Ok that was a pretty impressive storm and better than I expected. Nothing severe but entertaining with a decent amount of rain. 0.76" with some lighter rain continuing.

Impressive T&L right now. Pouring rain.

Not much here so far- .03". Hearing some persistent thunder with weakening storms on the doorstep per radar. Hopefully it holds together. A half inch would be nice.

What brand do you use? I buy Sawyer on Amazon. Good Stuff but crappy pump spray dispenser. Super annoying.

I'll take a walk on the treadmill in the AC. Right after I finish this 90 min IPA.

After getting chiggers on my ankles and multiple seed ticks in a place no man wants them, I always immediately shower or at least take a damp towel and brush down my legs and feet. Worse than normal this Summer. This morning I put knee boots on to pull some weeds lol. Skeeters aren't bad but the Asian Tigers usually show up for the last third of Summer and into early Fall(second summer).

All that digging and playing in the dirt you do, have you managed to avoid chiggers? I do a lot of the same stuff here(to a lesser degree now) and every time I have been lazy and not sprayed myself, I have paid for it lol. I try to do my 'playing in the dirt projects' in early Spring and later in the Fall for the most part.

Seems like they let all the good people go so they can afford the contract with Pat McAffee. He is in on everything. Talk about overexposed.

Yeah when I drove by yesterday and saw the clouds and the way the sun was highlighting everything I was like I have to turn around and get that shot lol.

I literally just noticed this beautiful meadow of sunflowers a couple days ago just a half mile down the road from my house. Only a small opening where its visible from the road.

4.25" for July so far

The light to moderate rain behind the initial line pushed the total up to 0.78"
