Monday morning low IMBY/Columbia 65° (compared to BWI 63°)

Tonight’s a really pleasant night (here/Columbia) just sitting on a dry deck with a gentle breeze and 78° — who can ask for more? After lucking out with 3-1/4 inches of rain between July 4-9, the last two days have been frustrating watching radar; a trace at best for the last two days as of now. Also while sitting outside I just noticed a lower-level group of broken clouds moving east to west. Easterly breeze has picked up too.

Imby Columbia 0.35” today. 3+” from rain each day July 4-9.

0.31” today imby as of 4:30pm. 3.24” so far in July.

Pouring in Columbia

Looks like a few more counties added to the severe t-storm watch. Distant thunder past 20 mins here in Columbia.

1.15” imby from approx 10pm Tues to 6am Wed. 2.93” in July so far.

After 10 o’clock on the east side of Columbia and it is delightfully pouring outside right now, it looks like there’s a cell on radar right above the area, and growing a bit.

0.12” today/Columbia

I hear ya! I had about 30 seconds of heavy rain and then light rain over next 1-2 hrs pre- and around dawn. Everything got wet but nothing to show for it really. I also had a 90% chance for rain — and it did rain, plus today is not yet over. Technical definition, I believe from NWS but anyone feel free to correct me: “A 90% PoP means there is a 90% likelihood that any given point in the forecasted location will receive at least 0.01 inches of rain during the specified time period.” It does not mean it will rain continuously for 90% of the day; rather, it signifies that widespread precipitation is expected and you should definitely bring an umbrella. Ha, don’t need one yet today…. and I may not yet technically be at 0.01” today

Left in the rain for Mt. Storm, WV to go camping. Received 0.7” on Tuesday imby/Columbia.

Rainfall was 0.13” east side Columbia. A bit of l&t but nbd. The shrubs seem nicely watered, at least at the ground level.

0.15” imby/Columbia on Sunday evening.
