.26” overnight at home, 2.59” for the month already. I’m currently up at Mount Snow for the annual guys trip to the Brewfest tomorrow.  Glorious mountain air up here today getting better by the minute.  69/62 at the closest Davis to here, yesterday was muggy with dews in the upper 60’s up here.

I know everyone is different. The dew point is too high for me to consider it pleasant. 

1.89” over the last 24 hours, 2.33” for the month already.

The shear should slide East. 
 

 

Yep but isn't supposed to be as strong as it is now out there. That said, we'll know for sure overnight.

I imagine the storms will weaken considerably. Maybe a decent light show but upton really only mentioning showers

This tells the story for now at least. 

1.43” here on what was supposed to be the dry day.

not one model showed that cluster

Nope, closing in on 1” here. Not severe but some decent thunder and torrential rains. 

House rattling thunder up here in a downpour...so much for the drier day here.

Ha I literally looked a minute before this

Haha, I figured, it was close. I saw it on RadarScope first.

No signs of a watch or meso discussion yet 

A meso discussion was issued in the last 15 minutes, watch looks likely by 5pm. I’m hoping it’s south of me.

Not really quantifiable but these every few day line of heavy rains and storms seems odd….cant remember the last summer like this. 

I can't remember the last August I had to mow twice a week either.

Just returned from a week in the Adirondacks; this humidity feels oppressive! Going to need 24 hours to get re-adjusted. 

I've heard people recently talking about how it's finally not humid around here...wrong! It's less humid than it was but still dews above 60 with a few hours exception here and there in some places. Looking forward to legit consistent dews below 60...someday...

1.14" total, 4.45" for the month. More than enough to keep the mosquitoes thriving...

What in the hell kind of spider is this? It’s freaking massive. Too scared to get any closer for a pic. I’m afraid he will lunge at me. He was watching my every move as is 

How big is your ac unit  if that’s massive?

Apologies if it's just outside of this region, but some pretty impressive hail reports yesterday in Binghamton. Several reports up to 3".

 

Mark Tarello - WOW! Golfball to egg size hail from severe... | Facebook

No worries, thanks for sharing. That's impressive!

Tremendous thunder and lightning overnight, it's been quite the thunderstorm season. .49" getting me to 3.00" for the month. Not much wind here thankfully but I know the NWS is looking for any damage reports just east of me as radar indicated possible straight line winds. @hudsonvalley21, how did to make out?

I think some or many of these WU stations are not installed in favorable areas of a property to get accurate readings for some attached individual instruments . I would not buy one because the only favorable area on my property is on top of my roof - and my roof climbing days ended years ago. Used to have a station there for 20 plus years until Labor Day 1998 - the day the Tornado ripped it off my roof along with my Chimney.

Poor installation locations and who knows what the accuracy/quality of the station Is to begin with. Add to that the lack of maintenance on the stations and you get many questionable readings.

seems like the line is weakening west of us BUT the AFD mentioned this and said it will probably restrengthen - I think they are waiting to see it it does before issuing a Watch here

It can continue weakening as far as I'm concerned, I've had my fill of storms this summer, not that mother nature cares about how any of us feel. But yes, we will see if they start building again. 

Seems like a watch is coming soon: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md1897.html

Friday and Saturday were as intense rain as I have ever seen.  Gravel driveway washed out yet again.

I've dealth with that before, what a pain in the ass.

12.52” per hour was my high rainfall rate…that explains the water that got into the basement yet again this summer…

Wow the lightning and thunder was intense with the cell that just abused us here. It only dropped .4 but it was all at once. Our dog is traumatized

Yeah, it was a loud one.
