  1. I just barely got clipped by the southern edge of it. It rained for 1 minute.
  2. Yep, just a little light rain here. The heavy rain this morning was very isolated, just in parts of Hunterdon and Somerset counties.
  3. Looks as if the heavy rain that was supposed to hit us early in the morning never materialized. That was supposed to be the most widespread part of this event. Just terrible, but it figures that our bad luck continues. Of course there will still be some heavy downpours around the rest of the day, but they will be scattered in nature so we have to hope for good luck. HRRR doesn't look that great. Gonna be horrible if this event ends up a bust.
  4. Hopefully this won't be a start of a trend of the models taking away our potential significant rain event. I see RGEM cut back on the 12z run too, now showing the bigger rain amounts staying to the southwest. Knowing that every potential event has fallen apart during this horrible drought, it certainly wouldn't be surprising if it happens again.
  5. Yeah the 93 here right now doesn't feel bad at all with the dewpoint of 50. Very nice outside. But I'm hoping the higher dewpoints that will will be coming in sunday will help us finally see some widespread downpours sunday night and monday.
  6. Models are showing a good amount of rain for monday. Every threat always falls apart so I know to not get hopes up too high, but you'd think one of these threats would have to pan out eventually. I doubt it the way things have been going, but maybe monday will finally give the area more widespead heavy downpours.
  7. 84 with a dewpoint of 50 here right now. A spectacular day, and this has been a great stretch the last several days with the very low dewpoints.
  8. 99 here with a dewpoint of 70.
  9. It's going to feel especially great with the very low humidity. Dewpoints could fall to the upper 40s next weekend.
  10. Yep it was good to add a little more rain. I picked up 0.72" here. Much needed rain.
  11. Sorry, that's lousy. Frustrating when a nice storm like this just barely misses you. You were just a few miles too far south. I got lucky here.
  12. I see another little cell popped up behind it. We might get another brief downpour.
  13. It was a very good storm. So glad we FINALLY got hit with a nice cell.
  14. I know you're a little south of me. The dark red on radar went right over me here in the extreme northern part of the county. It came down buckets here. A half inch of rain in a very short period of time. We had some close lightning strikes and 40mph wind gusts. Best storm in a long time here. Glad I finally can take a break from watering the vegetable garden for a couple days.
  15. Pouring here now. Windy too with gusts 30 to 40mph. Decent storm.
  16. Dark clouds and I can hear the thunder.
  17. Looks as if the downpour in Somerset county is on track to hit here shortly. Keeping my fingers crossed .... I'm desperate for the rain.
  18. I can't even remember the last time I cut the lawn. This has been the longest stretch of not mowing I can ever remember for the summer. We've certainly had summers in which the lawns burned out, but I don't remember anything this extreme. Anyway HRRR NAM and RGEM are showing very little activity for today. Just a slight chance today and tomorrow. Not looking good as this extremely dry pattern continues.
  19. It's so frustrating. I watered the vegetable garden today. A few days ago when the models were showing a deluge for today into tomorrow, I was hoping to finally get a break from watering. Terrible how nothing ever pans out this summer.
  20. RGEM is showing almost nothing for today too. This was another example of why we should be skeptical anytime the models show a good event several days in advance. As usual it fell apart and the terribly dry pattern continues. Just isolated activity the next couple days. Have to hope we get lucky today or tomorrow, but the luck here has been terrible so there's a good chance we won't get anything significant. Maybe we'll have a little better chance when the front comes through later tuesday or wednesday.
  21. It weakened as it hit my area, so just some moderate rain with a few rumbles. About a tenth of an inch of rain. Better than nothing, and hopefully much more coming tomorrow.
  22. NAM isn't showing much for tomorrow and saturday. I know there will be some downpours and there's decent potential due to the high dewpoints, but I'm not getting my hopes up too much since we've had such bad luck here. We'll see.
