Same deal here. My trees and bushes are dieing and 5 miles se of me has been crushed for the past 3 days. I can hear thunder from a flooder that is sitting just to my se AGAIN. I wont see a drop all day.
I didn't get enough rain to wet the driveway under a tree. Storms were NW and rain shield missed to SE. This is good practice for winter. It's about to get pretty crispy around here in a week.
My point and click forecast calls for rain and storms later today. Models are like "what rain". I guess I'll be dragging the garden hose around this evening.
Some fun stuff going on above my house at the moment. I'm right where the rain is streaming north into the main blob. It looks like an area of enhanced lift developing. The radar is starting to blossom.
Hrrr is definitely looking better for late tonight. I just applied some calcium rich top dressing on my tomato, cucumber, zucchini and squash plants. I hope this soaker takes shape. My veggies will love it.
It sat 5 miles west of me. I stood and watched the impressive fireworks it produced. The rain totals will be impressive. I hear my local fire department in the distance headed out. I'm willing to bet there's water rescues going on.
I agree. Just stepped out for a late 420 session and broke a sweat just sitting there for 5 minutes. This is the only extreme type weather I don't like. Give me a high temp of 7 and a 50mph wind and I'm good.
