  1. And just missed a 2nd time this evening about 400 yards again to my east, it just won't rain here...picked up .02
  2. Missed a nice shower by about 400 yards , so my little spot in nw Boro remains at a 2 month total of 3.26... Dry ain't the right word anymore.. Shower developed just to my west and drifted SE...
  3. 0.00 here to not break this year's 2nd drought which began first of July... 3.26 total in almost 2 full months of summer with only .53 this month...Still waiting to hit the 20.00 inch mark for the year...
  4. Meanwhile about 15 minutes to my east along i64 headed to work in charlottesville as expected its a blinding downpour easily a inch plus...same places over and over..
  5. Picked up 0.02 , monthly total up to 0.53 - much heavier rain about a half mile to my northeast along rt 340, descent amount of water in the roadside drainage ditches there...
  6. Once again radar is showing rain here but nothing is falling , this isn't winter - dealing with dry air its just not meant to be right now I reckon.. I'm sure this line will intensify to my east shortly...
  7. Guess we are in a futility competition this month , up to 0.51 myself for the month , 2.73 for July ... Only late June is saving my gauge from being on pace for only about 20 or so inches for the year.. As it stands at the middle of August I am on pace for 27.45
  8. Hope you got some water up that way, even though there is no chance down here , I can see the distant lightning on the northern horizon.
  9. Year to date precip totals for just my backyard.... Jan 1.53 Feb 3.09 Mar 1.39 April 3.63 May 1.48 June 5.10 July 2.73 Aug 0.50 Ytd 19.45 August may turn out to be the worst month of the year..
  10. Need a little bit of water here too, under 3 for July and right at 0.5 for August.
  11. Definitely got a bit of wind , alot of leaves and small twigs were down when we got home, but only .02 in the gauge.. The main storm went just to the NE of us...which is normal . Real glad we didn't get that hail that was just to our west toward Staunton... Went through a tennis ball size hailstorm in Crozet about 20 years ago that took out hundreds of car windows.. Watching Greg Forbes on the weather channel after the storm trying to pronounce Crozet was a bit funny...
  12. Big storm obviously on radar coming through staunton this afternoon , dropped .02 on my yard in northern Waynesboro..... it has always been that way since moving here from western Albemarle 17 years ago.. We just don't get much in the way of thunderstorm rain here....
  13. Up to .25 this afternoon, despite radar not being too impressive.. Very tropical feel to the rain and humid...
  14. What a summer night, cool temps - bright moonlight now with the dissipating high altitude smoke... Spent the last 2 hours on the front porch after work with the cooler air , cheap whiskey , frogs and crickets singing along with classic George Strait music.... nice and peaceful *
  15. Same here , finished the event with 0.000 drops...
  16. Was a bit wrong, got our 3rd best rainfall from a individual thunderstorm this spring/summer.... 0.33 Monthly total now 2.73
  17. Strong winds gusting to about 35 to 40 mph , Temps dropped fast , distant thunder, feels very very nice outside... will my backyard get any rain above a few hundredths? Very very unlikely
  18. It sucks , you are far worse than me the last 90 days...everything is growing and nice and green, thanks to the end of June cutoff low... Just drove through a monumental downpour less than 1 mile from home... Get home .03 in gauge
  19. Afternoon of storms all around, final total.. 0.03 2.40 monthly
  20. Received right at 0.40 for the past 24 hours, monthly total for my back yard stands at 2.37.... One of the lower totals locally... But no issue everything is green and growing nicely thanks to the end of June cutoff low and generally no heatwaves....
  21. And unless I totally missed a prior , just got put under the only flood anything , watch or warning of the calender year... Our fellow member Stormy's neck of the woods must be the reason for the warning... up to 0.29 now
  22. Just got home from work from the rainforest in Charlottesville .... 0.27 total.. just a few miles away from me you have about 6 or 7 times as much...
