  1. Finally, finally , FINALLY ... A nice long band of rain over my area has been in place for about a hour , nothing extreme but it's over 0.60 so far today.....
  2. The ultimate challenge, can we we get some real rain out of this setup ? Rain completely around me ....
  3. Picked up 0.07 earlier today , looks to be about it down here , for a 3 day total of 0.45 .... The biggest rainfall event here since July 18 - 19 when 0.40 fell...
  4. Well dam , I guess I am now the epicenter of the drought.... 1.29 since July 20th.... lol. ...... Seriously though - glad you finally some solid rainfall !
  5. You ain't joking, that U shape has happened nearly everytime.... Even nws can't get it right, today was the first flood watch of the calender year down here, but the rain has obviously set up everywhere but the valley...
  6. Wow , simply amazing , it actually rained a bit .... 0.08 the last 5 weeks... 0.37 today !!!!
  7. That's usually my kind of results downhere....
  8. And as expected - never had a shot, a chance or a glimmer of hope ...
  9. Impressive no thunder lightning display off to my south right now... Almost nonstop lightning in the taller cloud tops that i can see from storms that are firing in the Lynchburg to Nelson county area... Can we break a now 5 week streak of only 0.08 here ? Probably not ...
  10. The last 28 days here I have measured a amazing 0.08 , Going back to July 20th roughly 45 or so days I have picked up 0.92 - Simply incredible...
  11. As expected the gradual move toward charlottesville occurred, finished a supposedly wet 3 day period with a final total of 0.03... 0.56 final August total.. For whatever reason - right now it does indeed appear that the northern half of the Valley simply can not recieve much or any precipitation....
  12. Cluster of showers developing in the southern valley where it's been alot wetter heading this way, will they make it ? Or will they fade just before they get here or just magically jump east for some reason toward hooville ?
  13. Picked up another 0.01 this evening - raises my monthly total to 0.56 Meanwhile the last 36 hours has seen heavy heavy rain and numerous warnings to our east , south , west , and northwest.. Almost like the letter U... With most of the Valley from northern Waynesboro up to Winchester being a desert in the middle of a rainforest...
  14. I saw your post then looked at the NAMs last night...I was thinking without a tropical or some cutoff low again my backyard may not see another 5 inches of total precip the rest of the year.. but I guess the model did get the totals right just 100 miles to our south and east
  15. Wow nearly a foot of rain south of Roanoke this morning unfortunately, some 3 inch totals in and around Charlottesville yesterday, and here well we wait...
  16. This certainly does appear to already be a cane, would be a shock if it's not upgraded at the next update... Interested to see what the incoming recon data shows.
  17. And the Charlottesville & eastern Albemarle soaking continues...I know the Rivanna River in Charlottesville has been super low, but it's not from the lack of rain within the city, it's from the lack of rain in it's headwaters...
  18. And just missed a 2nd time this evening about 400 yards again to my east, it just won't rain here...picked up .02
  19. 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...
  20. 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...
  21. 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..
  22. 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...
  23. 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...
