  1. I got 0.26" here. This after getting only 0.75" from that Thursday through Sunday wet period. My area keeps missing out on the big rain totals, but at least it has been enough to water the vegetable garden over the last week. My tomatoes are growing very quickly.
  2. Only 0.16" here this morning after missing yesterday's storms. Hoping to get some more rain this afternoon. The stuff in PA should swing through here.
  3. 12 Euro an inch to an inch and a half for a lot of the area. Some other models are in the half inch to inch range. This event still looks like a half inch to inch for most of the area, with some spots maybe getting as much as an inch and a half.
  4. Wow 0.26, talk about unlucky. I'm not thrilled with my 0.75, but I would have been very irritated had I gotten only a quarter inch.
  5. Yeah it's more likely that the storms will stay to the north and west this afternoon, but there's a slight chance we could get lucky.
  6. Up to 0.75" for the entire event here. Our area hasn't done great, but at least it has been enough to give everything a much-needed watering. Hopefully we'll get lucky this afternoon.
  7. Had a decent downpour that got us to 0.15" for the day here. 0.55" for the event so far, which is pretty disappointing. Hopefully we'll get lucky with a t-storm tomorrow afternoon. If not, the advertised big soaking 4 day period is going end up a big disappointment. Definitely a big bust for the Euro model which showed ridiculously high amounts for days.
  8. Getting some moderate rain here now. Decent downpour moving in.
  9. 0.12" here today. 0.40" for the weekend. Not too bad, but hopefully a much bigger soaking tomorrow into Tuesday.
  10. The downpour I got last night was the first decent rainfall I got in the last couple weeks, so I had to do a lot of watering. I can't imagine how bad my lettuce plants would have looked had I not watered a lot. I agree that normal rainfall is just fine, but it's very annoying when we get long dry periods. The drought last fall was terrible.
  11. As other gardeners here have pointed out, it's amazing how much more quickly plants grow after a good rainfall than they do after our own watering.
  12. The heavy rain is in NW NJ as expected, but yeah we will have some showers moving in.
  13. After last night's 0.28", I just got a very small downpour here that dropped 0.06". Not sure we're going to get much more here today, as it appears most of it is going to be to the north and west. But at least the ground finally has some moisture here, and we should get a good soaking Monday into Tuesday. Hopefully by the time it's over we will have received around 2 inches of rain.
  14. It was too brief here to get that much (it's already over), but we did get a quick 0.28". Came down very heavily for a few minutes. Not bad ... at least it was just enough to give things a much-needed watering. I didn't think we would see anything today. It was a nice little storm.
