  1. 40 in my yard this morning. 42 at MRB, 3 degrees above the record low for the date from 1959.
  2. 7th day in a row here with highs in the 70's, following a stretch of 7 days in a row of 90's. Really unusual to get a "cool" spell this prolonged in August.
  3. Ended up with 0.98" of rain from the storm last evening. Three large trees came down on my property, two across the street and another two doors down. A trampoline that was anchored into the ground with a heavy 6' stake lifted off (bending the stake) and flew about 50' before bouncing off the hood of our truck and then wedging under a tree, keeping it from smashing into the side of the house.
  4. Severe thunderstorm passed through here and brought down numerous large trees with many others snapped off. Winds were roaring as it came through. Numerous roads are blocked.with power lines down.
  5. Pouring rain here. Didn’t see that coming.
  6. 99 for my high today. Hottest since I hit 100 on 7/25/2016. Winds roaring now, gusting 35-45 with storms nearby.
  7. 9th day in a row of 90+ here. 14 of 21 days in July now, 18 of the last 26 days and 20 days of 90+ for the season. Currently 93.
  8. Checked the records for today at MRB to see if either the record high or record warm low temperatures were in play. 106 is the record for 7/21 in 1930. And 86 for the low from the same day, the hottest night ever at Martinsburg.
  9. Some thunder and lightning with the cell that passed through here last hour. More noteworthy was the heavy rain rates. Ended up with 0.79" in about 30 minutes. Water in the driveway is over ankle deep, indicative of how saturated everything remains after nearly 3" early Monday.
  10. So much for getting missed by storms. 2.84" of rain here overnight has flooded low-lying areas
  11. PRELIMINARY LOCAL STORM REPORT NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BALTIMORE MD/WASHINGTON DC 246 AM EDT MON JUL 08 2019 0244 AM FLOOD KEARNEYSVILLE 39.39N 77.89W 07/08/2019 JEFFERSON COUNTY WV POLICE REPORTED TO 911 CENTER THAT 8 TO 10 INCHES OF WATER IS COVERING MULTIPLE ROADS IN THE KEARNEYSVILE AREA.
  12. Everything has missed here all week also, despite storms very close by several times. Last evening a few drops fell in my yard but not enough to wet the pavement. Left shortly after to go to the store and the other end of my street had puddles. That’s a very near miss, lol.
  13. Round 2 now is mostly just some heavy downpours. None of the gusty winds of earlier but still quite a bit of t & l.
  14. Best light show I can recall in quite some time with the activity this evening. Almost continuous lightning in all parts of the sky. Picked up 0.11” of rain with the line, after narrowly missing storms the past 3 days. Third consecutive day of 92 for the high, matching the hottest of the year.
  15. 1.05" from this event. Brings the total here the past 365 days (since the first flooding rains of 2018) to 74.57"
  16. 0.96” here. Moderate rain falling now. Up to 2.27” for May.
  17. Today marks the end of 10 years since I began reporting precipitation to Cocorahs. Pretty proud that I haven't missed a single day's report in that time.
  18. Just drove through a nice snow squall west of Frostburg Maryland on I 68 . Temperature on the truck said 31° . Wind is whipping in the high ground today .
  19. Found some snowflakes on my truck this morning. 30°
  20. 12Z ECMWF has rain changing to accumulating snow west to east across the forum. Best news is that the snow falls during the overnight hours.
  21. I have mentioned this before when talk of April snows comes up. MRB had 10" on 4/28/1928 from a snowstorm that dropped up to 40" in the mountains of WV.
