stormy

I received .15 but there is a report east of New Hope of 1.18". A friend driving thru that area said ditches were full.

.10" yesterday evening. Staunton was under a Warning for about 30 minutes. West-side received around 2.00".

.75" so far. Temp. down to 70.

.22" more in a torrential short shower 4:05. Temperature down to 79!

Temp. dropped from 95 to 84 in a thundershower that dropped .07" rain.

68.3 after 100.3 at 5:30 yesterday.

The NWS had predicted a high of 95.0 for me today. Right now I am 98.9!

24 hrs. ago to this minute, I observed 96.0. Today at 4 pm, I observe 97. 3 The record at 100 in 1898 is safe.

64.8 at 6:30

A cooler afternoon at 96.0 at 4 pm... 24 hours ago to this minute was 97.8......

My low was 65.2 this morning. High yesterday was 98. A little too cool for the record which was 99 in 1959.

Thanks Cape, " I just tell it like it is" is a perfect description of your style. Do you believe that you may be better off not" tellin it like it is". What is wrong with a decent poster who does not tell it like it is?? A "tell it like it is bastard" is not popular with intelligent people. Why can't you allow people who you don't agree with to go on their way without a snarky attack. If they make a totally inaccurate allegation, correct it and move on without insults. And , yes, your mental issues are probably a lifelong trait

You need to get that thermometer in ventilated shade, all the time. This is very important.

LOL, I was building a case! AI makes it easy in today's world. I should tell you sometime about all the acrobatics I went thru during the late 60's to construct a temperature measuring shelter to NWS standards!!

I'm going by the Staunton official records. A thermometer exposed to the rays of the sun or other artificial heating can register significantly higher than actual air temperature. Even reflective heat can artificially inflate the temperature.
