MN Transplant

Now I love Kirk Cousins. Give him all the money!

2.04”. Fantastic.

Would have been a beauty of a radar loop 30 degrees colder

In a shocking twist, the NAM caved. Big gradient on precip from NW to SE.

I actually bought a new bucket with the leaf guard and the bird spikes and it has been solid.

Would be surprised if it was broken. What can happen is that a leaf or small twig gets stuck and stops the tipping bucket mechanism.

Not only hasn’t it rained over the past two months, there has been nearly no wind. Things are flying off the trees, mostly pine needles in my backyard.

This one was timed really well for the normal rush hour DC-area commutes.

1.41". Always pleasant to end up on the high side of the guidance.

Yeah, averaging around 0.4"/hr but with some higher spurts. 0.97" now. Good performer.

0.70" at home, 0.68" at DCA per the 5 minute obs.

There is free water falling from the sky. Amazing. 0.29"

Gfs up to 3/4” for DC

Yeah, backed off a bit again, but when the low spots in the immediate region are >0.4" I still count that as a good run.

I like the way the 3km NAM runs at 00z and 06z came around to the heavy rain solution after being a very dry holdout. Nice gusty, Fall-like day in store for Thursday.
