  1. Yeah really weakened as it moved east. Only .01" and that's probably rounding up ha. Low of 51.
  2. Have not read but rankings like this are generally an exercise in absurdity and not worthy of anyone's time. Like, how do you even begin to rank something as complex as a state and all that comes with that term? Based on what? And according to whom? Silliness aimed at driving clicks.
  3. Almost forgot to add, I got .36" from that rogue cell yesterday afternoon. I'm now at 5.53" for the month.
  4. It radiated out well last night. 44 at my house when I left and 39 on the car thermo through the typical cold spots. Even a touch of valley fog along the creek bed. A perfect ten on tap.
  5. Looks like about a third of an inch here. No real wind or lightning. Nice little surprise.
  6. That cell sure looks like it's headed right for you and I. Unexpected.
  7. Just mowed, followed by my first cold shower of the year. It's hot out there, but feels good with a breeze in the shade.
  8. I had a buddy whose trampoline went airborne as well. Luckily he had it chained down. Yeah it was a weird little event to be sure. Like I said, totally caught me off guard.
  9. Yeah it appears it was quite isolated. It blew over a bunch of stuff on our porch and was just generally as loud as I've heard the wind here. Odd.
  10. Low of 57 and .17" of rainfall here. Got all my hedge trimming done yesterday. Plus, sawed up a huge pine limb that had fallen during one of the previous storms and did some grass patchwork. I'll mow later today. Man, I was taken aback by the winds that rolled through here around 9 last night. Some of the strongest I've ever seen or heard around our new place. Intense and swirling. Immediately there were sirens to be heard coming from everywhere and friends were texting about how crazy it was. I wasn't expecting it at all because everything I had heard from local Mets was that the parameters weren't there for severe down our way. I'm actually about to check the property for any damage.
  11. Low of 47 here with .27” of additional rainfall. @Voyager very sorry to hear about your loss. Extremely admirable the sacrifices you have made. You are a great son, and surely your mom was proud of the man she brought into this world.
  12. Rainfall yesterday (~7am-7am): .41" Rainfall for April: 4.73" Rainfall for 2024: 17.98" Would be curious to know if anyone is greater than my nearly 18" YTD figure??
  13. Temp has dropped to 56 here. Front pushing through.
  14. MDT only dropped to 59 yesterday, easily breaking the prior max min record of 57. We are now +2.2 for the month.
  15. Low of 60 with .41" of rain. Sitting at 60/58 with more rain on the doorstep. Squeezed in a quick mini-mow yesterday of some of the thicker spots.
  16. We keep 72 in the summer as well but can deal with 74-76 for a day or so, particularly if its not too humid. I also find that turning on the circulating fan on the HVAC unit does a great job of moderating things throughout the house and uses very little electric -- a feature that I think people often times forget about.
  17. I will dissent. I refuse to put the AC on for one abnormal day like that, particularly when it's not THAT hot and the nights still cool down enough to have windows open (i.e. ~60 or less). Fans and playing the window game does the trick. I fully expect @Itstrainingtime to disown me at this point
  18. Balmy low of 60 here. No rain, yet. As Bubbs mentioned, the max min record of 57 at MDT today is likely to fall. Carry on.
  19. The max min record of 57 for April 11th is in play. These upcoming warm nights will have us back above average for the month in no time. Well above.
  20. Low of 36 here. Mow #2 is in the cards for me today. Gonna need my machete for some of these clumps.
  21. Low of 41. Off to Diggerland in NJ with the boy today. Should be a decent enough day.
  22. Low of 36 and a trace of rain here. Time to dry things out.
