At 1.15" here.
The western slope communities east of BTV in Chittenden County have gotten crushed. They got trained by several narrow bands of heavy rainfall and now the ULL and upslope flow is cranking.
There are spots over 3" and pounding rain east of BTV. They could do 4"+ in this event.
1 hour ago, alex said:1.35” so far. The incredible part is that with 3” of rain in the past 2 weeks the river has barely risen. In spring we’d be at flood stage.
I have to imagine there's some water level rising in the area PF described. Impressive if not.

1.38" today.
Praise Jah.
4.50" since 8/1 - enough for me to stop caring.

My dog got stung by one yesterday
My kid got stung 14 times by em yesterday when we were fishing.
Goddamn ground nest in the soft river bank of a heavily walked area. No visible opening, really. Maybe 6 inches from waters edge.
There were a bunch of people walking near or over it, my kid just happened to kneel down right on top of it. They didn't swarm, only a maybe 4 or 5 attacked but they went for multiple stings.

It says he did save the data, and to send him a PM.

0.02" final.
3.12" since 8/1.

Coastal York and Cumberland counties here in Southern ME have the lowest precip totals since 8/1, ranging from 2.13" to 3.15" - now the least in NE based on CoCoRAHS obs.
Maybe we turn it around in winter. Looks like I'll be installing my own NWS precip can this year as the shutdown continues. My stake could use a resetting, too, but I am less confident in tackling that solo (and I don't think GYX wants me to, either).
And now what's this I hear about a colonoscopy? I shoulda stayed in bed...

I've been wanting to join but always forgot. I liked looking at the site info.
That being said, I'm not 100% familiar with how it worked. Is this something that could be duplicated with a Google Sheet, now that Kevin W's site has been retired?
Bingo.
Google Form with the responses routed to a Google Sheet.

0.13", up to 2.82" since 8/1. I think you've eclipsed me at this point.
Not that it makes any difference other than from a pure numerical standpoint.

Hey @weatherwiz. Check out this beauty. Only about a half dollar coin size. Let's see how big she can get (orb weaver).
I think she positioned herself where a light from a neighbor shines at night. Can you find her?
She's pretty well hidden between the grasses and alyssum.

The only light I keep on is just outside the back door but its not particularly bright and inside a cove (not sure what its technically called but its an overhang which connects the house with the garage.
That's enough to attract bugs, which will attract spiders. Heck, even an inside light left on will do that.

hmmm could be those. what kind is the "common yellow house spider"?
Do you keep outside lights on at night? Good way to attract lots of spiders (and f up migrating birds, but that's a different story)

1.13" in the Strati. No complaints.
2.68" since 8/1, but there are several CoCoRAHS stations along the coast with <2.00" in that timeframe.

Dews into middle of next week too. Poor uninstalled’s
With the economy great again, I'm shocked you haven't sprung for mini-splits.
AC on Christmas Day, Morch - whenever.
No more internal strife about uninstalling before the inevitable holiday dew rush.
Sad!

Probably a raccoon and I bet it will be back. It can smell them and I’d bet they made enough peeps from the roof walking so that it could hear them too.
Just make sure that hardware cloth is very secure and that all doors are tight and preferably locked. They’re pretty good with their hands.
I have one of those little Wyze cams aiming on the coop and run. It was only like $25 on Amazon.
Looking at the prints closer, it definitely checked the cleanout door and window area by hanging off the roof. All doors have a carabiner, and now the window does too. The coop itself has an automatic door on a timer, so all around they're safe. Hopefully it doesn't stress em too much. I'm gonna grab one of those cameras, thanks.

Man I don’t know. Obviously it had dirty feet, but I’m not sure how that would necessarily translate to the flat roof panels. How tall is your coop? What’s the length apart on those raised ridges on them? 8-9”?
Are there any prints on the ground? It could be one and there just wasn’t enough pressure to make a mark with the entirety of the toes. Those rear paw pads look to be about 1.5-2” wide?
Other option…maybe a fisher?
Yeah sorry, no scale for reference. Peak of the roof ridge is 6', and the metal panels are about 7" wide. The ground would've been wet enough last night, and there's a variety of dirt all over here - so not wet enough to make a print, but enough to get its feet dirty.
There are raccoons around, and I have heard fisher here, but not in the last 2 warm seasons.
Hens are safe inside the coop. I do wonder if it hung out and tried to get in, or of they stayed silent and the critter moved along. The only part that's not secure is their window. Hardware cloth under, but it's a small piece, and if nothing else they'd be freaking out and injure one another.

Every lawn here is scorched brown, but you’ve had a lot more rain than we have too.
Here too, obv, but every hundred lawns or so is a bright green one. Just irrigating the hell out of it daily. Looks so gross and out of place. Entire landscape is fading color and then, boom, jarring bright green.
1.47" since 8/1. No soil sensor but I was ripping and flipping sod for before sheet mulching in the rain a few weeks ago (when we got an 1" over 3 days), and the soil directly under the grass was dusty dry. While it was raining, literally.

Spooky Season (October Disco Thread)
in New England
Posted
Easy to see how - as others have said - Freshwater flooding is going to be the most impactful (costliest, deadliest) weather event related aspect of AGW. Probably already is.
