Don't worry folks, the Daily Mail is on it to keep the hype in check: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12494853/hurricane-lee-category-5-path-Boston-new-york.html

Storm near Montpelier looks nasty.

The Great Norwich Drought of September 2023 has ended at 83 hours- it is raining.

I wore a ski cap for breakfast along with a fleece. 46 but felt colder. After a wet June-Aug, it has yet to rain in September.

Pouring here in Hyde Park, meanwhile .45 at home has us at 10.76 for the month. Hoping for another slug to get us over 11" on the month, cuz why not at this point. 34.30 since June 1

Folks will be relieved to know that after about 27 straight hours of stein, it is raining here.

.22 so far this morning has brought us over 10 inches on the month (though the monthly total hasn't updated yet)

Sorry I knew this would not escape my brain if I didn't post it

Honestly that is how I picture Tolland on most days, but with immaculate lawns.

.61 since midnight after .44 yesterday evening. (1.05 total, 9.74 for the month)

I haven't even had two inches of rain this week. It must be why all my plants are stunted.

Phew, clouds have come back. That's far more like it.

.70 today and the .17 yesterday brings up over 8 inches on the month. 8.78 so far in August after 15.08 in July and 8.46 in June. (32.32 in less than 3 months) With 23.86 since the start of July, it means I have averaged 1/2 inch per day for 6 weeks now.

Wow the sun is actually out!

August 7.28 July 15.08 June 8.46 May 3.12 (stein!) April 5.55

2.25 at home in past hour or so. 7.28 in August and over 30 inches since June started. https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KVTNORWI24

To think I only had 5 inches of rain in May. The 27 inches since June 1st have wiped away that abnormal dryness.
