Trees have literally just started to change here in the past few days. On Friday I saw little evidence on our walk along the river. Yesterday, the trees were really starting to pop. (some at least)
You're exactly right.
This morning my point and click was a 1/4 - 1/2 inch tonight followed by a tenth of an inch tomorrow. Those amounts just went up significantly again.
MU just backed down to 75. Lots of 77s showing up surrounding me. I'm at 77.7 now. Sensor was not in the sun earlier so my reading should have been legit.
I enjoy all types of weather except for severe storms. I love a good nor'easter as much as anyone. I also feel somewhat jaded looking at those precip maps because of what's already happened this year. In the past several months I've had a storm produce over 7" of rain and several others were in the 2-5" range. Seeing the possibility of getting a couple of inches of rain right now seems almost ho-hum if that makes sense.
