Looks like official summer is coming in like summer. Hot hot hot!

Amazing...Another inch of rain last night. My poor plants are drowning. 6inches now for the month.

Why do people live in a climate they hate so much? Life is too short to be so miserable.

8 more weeks until the average temps start falling back. July and August are the worst. Bees, snakes, mosquitoes, ticks, and spiders rule the next 2 months. Who said Summer is fun?

To be honest, it hasn't been all that hot so far this year with all the rain, and cloud cover. What it has been though is HUMID!

If your tired of the rain then buckle up because it looks like we are going to enter another very unsettled several days starting tomorrow evening through the weekend. 

Yup, looks like it will continue through the end of the month. It is getting old.

Anyone sick of this rain? I mean my lawn is ok with it, although I'm getting a nasty fungus on it in spots. Picked up another 3/4 inch of rain at 1am this morning with gusty winds.

3.2" of rain already for the month. Looks like the wet pattern continues ATLEAST until the end of the month. This is getting old. My plants are drowning this year. Lost 3 already. I'm guessing once the pattern changes, we will see no rain for months.

Picked up almost 2 inches of rain in my area. We had 2 quick squalls come through early this afternoon, and a torrential downpour an hour ago, and still now raining moderately. Looks like we gonna have a wet June too.

Without having any idea that this would occur, I got a heavy shower suddenly at ~1:45AM (6/4) but it ended after no more than 5 minutes. I looked on radar and saw that it came from a rather unusual direction, from offshore moving WNW.

Yup, that's the Low offshore. Its a rarity seeing clouds and rain coming from the east. Its strange seeing clouds move that direction around here. Looks like unsettled weather the next 5 to 7 days. Another smokey morning for me too.

One last post for May. Wound up with 12 inches of rain for the month, 7 inches was last week alone. Yesterday the sunshine in the early morning was beautiful, then the smoke arrived. The weather this year in general in my area has been overall awful. Today more smoke, then the dust is coming....LOL. The models show a wetter than normal pattern for June. Its getting old, but I am sure by the end July we will be in drought conditions. Its all or nothing these days.

So weekend looking iffy around the ATL area. Rained the last 2 weekends, and this one looking borderline again. Not a washout, but could definitely ruin some outdoor plans. Have a great holiday weekend everyone. Lets all remember what this weekend represents. We owe our freedom to all those who served.

So it looks like the abnormal cold that was forecast is backing off a bit for my area, and most in the South East. Sure some of the high elevations could get cold, but as usual, the warmth prevails this time of year. I will enjoy the one or 2 slightly below normal temps, and low humidity. Come the end of the month though, looks like another shot of "cold"

Entering the time of year when below average temps are very much welcome. Seems like a cool stretch is likely in about 10 days

Just in time for everyone's outdoor plans for Memorial day. The good thing, is even with below temps it will still be warm for outdoor activities, just not scorching hot, which is nice.

Gonna be a coolish week ahead. Low of 46 monday morning

Well, beat the 37 with a 34 , so climo wins again.  Hardly ever fails that the weekend of the Master's is cold, or coldish at least one night.

Yup, cold nights. But the daytime temps were perfect for golf. Was a beautiful weekend.

Some wicked storms came through around midnight last night. Lots of wind and half inch hail. My back patio was half covered. Half inch of precip.

Dipped down to 37 this morning, with scattered frost. Looks like the roller coaster will continue with highs tomorrow in the upper 70's, and another possible frost watch Saturday.

Just another day here in Tornado alley. Tornado touched down a few miles from me again. This is getting old. We are up to 4.23" inch of rain so far.

GFS backing off the cold a little as of this morning. Is it lining up with the Euro now? Or is that getting slightly warmer? Yes, we will be below normal, but seems like not as severe.

Yep.  Crazy looking at extended models and seeing how much snow is forecast across the US over the next 2 weeks.  Indication of how cold will be in the lower 48.  The pool will be frigid when it is opened in May.  

My pool has been open since 2 weeks ago. Loving this warm start of spring, but yes, the next couple of weeks after this Saturday will kill the swim season. Looks warm again 3rd and 4th week of April though.

Are you aware there was a severe wx thread for this? I posted on it for my area:

 

 

Lol. Nope...Im a dummy 

I am shocked at how quiet it is here. I understand its all about the snow, but severe weather is no joke. 3rd Tornado warning in my area just this year so far. 2 of the warnings had 2 tornadoes on the ground within 5 miles of me. I am assuming the severe line dissipated when it got close to the coast?

Wow! Tornado on ground just to my north in Newnan. This developed quickly. Thankfully just some heavy rain here with some high winds.

I can safely say that i have had more pollen here than snow this year.

Same here. I seriously hope we get that rain today.

What a bust in my area for any rain. Got a couple of drops so far, radar looks pathetic. Was hoping for the needed rainfall. as of yesterday we were predicted for at least an inch of rain between today and tomorrow. Now I'm thinking we end up with nothing. Bummer.
