    The last time I recorded more than .25” was 6/21 when I received .41”. Since 6/21 I have a total .53”. We dry.

    Heavy heavy fireflies. Getting destroyed currently.

    One of the Euro runs posted earlier this week had me in a dry slot of only .30” or so and I figured at least that was something and better than nothing...I got less than a third of that...

    .03” yesterday, the grass under the trees didn’t even get wet.

    I finally got a drop or two, .02 in the bucket...could use plenty more where that came from. On the plus side the lawn is slowing down but then the other side is that regular watering of the gardens is now required.

    Those who don’t learn history are doomed to repeat it...the Battle of Gettysburg occurred over three days, July 1-July 3, 1863. Anyway, need some rain IMBY, the yard is cracked and burned out in the usual spots.

    I'm about halfway through The Killer Angels right now, not my first time reading it. As I recall, there has been conflicting information over the years as to what the weather actually was there then. When thinking of Pickett's Charge I can't help but think of the late Shelby Foote who said that while waiting in the shade of the tree before the charge a Confederate soldier saw rabbit run off into the woods and the soldier said "If I was an old hare I'd run too."

    Did you try this yet? I'm curious how it worked out if you did.

    Finished off June with 3.08", which is 1.34" below average, my yard has dried out quite a bit in recent weeks.

    True. At least we aren’t bogged down by weenies asking about school closings, what time the models come out, and “What does the latest run show for my driveway?”

    Yikes!

    Horrible

    I could host a science class field trip to identify all of the various scat piles in my yard.

    This is a bad day...
  18. IrishRob17
    The dew point is already down to 48 here! Oh wait, never mind...
  19. IrishRob17
    In other news I see it’s going to be windy the next couple of days for a change...
  20. IrishRob17
    I just have too
  21. IrishRob17
    Wow, interesting.

    Oh I will, just a matter of when and you pointed out another advantage of the Pro2, being able to replace parts when needed. I like being able to add do it as well if I chose.

    If I recall correctly, the humidity sensor is what went on the old station too but only after several years of solid performance, just replacing the batteries as needed.

    I got my first Davis, the old Weather Monitor II, in the mid to late 90’s and the replaced that with the Vue in 2011 I believe. Neither one of those disappointed me, solid units that were calibrated well. The only issue that I had with the Vue is the radiation shield, a few days a year, under certain conditions, the temp would run high.

    Does anyone here have this? Wondering how you like it if you do. https://weatherflow.com/weather-meter/
