Strangely foggy down at the swamp this morning. South River heavy fog also, but lifting. Clear otherwise. DP 66

Month of May total 7.19" at my station. Highest temp 84f, lowest 46.

Not according to the LWX text (unless they've corrected it). Their map doesn't show it either

My wife's Apple-gadget wx app also spit out a false tornado watch for AAco+ earlier.

0.61" at obs. 54f with light rain.

0.58" from today's storm. DP hit 76 sometime this afternoon. Welcome to summer.

About 1.05" overnight. Around 2.10" for the 2 day total so far.

Am I the only one who's had more ticks this year? Seems like I've been pulling off a tick-a-day for the past 10 days. About half have been Lone Star ticks. Most since 2019 maybe. I sprayed some Bifen/IT around certain areas, and thought it helped, but haven't had much chance to follow up.

Was surprised to wake up to 0.64" . Light/Mod falling since then.

Almost 0.10" overnight here.

Total of 0.16"; half in a midday downpour, the rest in the evening. Very moist morning but almost nothing in the gauge (except pollen pods).

0.18" for today. Power flickered c.7:15p Moon peaking through now

Recorded 0.12" yesterday to bring my April total to 3.13" Highest temp 84f; lowest 28

For some reason I've been posting our cherry trees when they reach full blossom, and I think it was April 13 last year, and earlier the previous year. Anyway, they've struggled to reach full blossom this year; possibly due to a freeze followed by days of strong winds. Or, who knows? Took the pic on 4/16 but I think they kept coming until about 4/18 for peak.

Low of 32 But no windshield scraping. Woodstove burning tho.

1.24" today. Still lt rn at obs

Light rain starting about 8:15 And look at this: When did we start referring to 2 inches of rain as "showers" ? (That's like when the guy sprained his back shoveling 4" of "flurries")

28

2.97" March total.

0.63" at obs time last night, with bit-o-thunder; additional roughly .24" overnight. Morning low 44f. Windy

Full day of overcast here. Hi temp 48. Winter day.

Nearby stations @dailylurkerand @MillvilleWx have correctly summarized our swamps-of-Anne-Arundel winter with scores of A and B+ respectively. But, I am going to agree with the B+, based on the lack of, (or maybe near miss), of a KU style MECS. An A grade winter requires the KU and maybe a white Christmas. 18.4" snowfall is a bit above average here. Also, in our back yard, we had plenty of frozen waterways for most of Jan/Feb. Good indicator of true winter. Also, not IMBY, but worthy of note, is the widespread snow deep into the Gulf states.

Humph. Quite overcast in Annapolis. 42f

Wow; significant, IMHO

No way! I've got a goofy pile of cut-offs and miscellaneous that's getting beetles, and I want it gone before Spring, but I'm slightly fearful that we'll run out of Winter before I run out of wood. Mostly holly and red maple from storm damage. The tidal South River froze over again this morning. Looks thin, but is bank-to-bank. Impressive for March. Low of 20f both yesterday and today.
