    1.1" total. I may have saved most of the corn, I'm not totally confident but I am hopeful. We'll see. The tomatoes are probably gone but may be able to be replanted. Melons and squash are good. With the greens that are done coming out there's plenty of sunny room for root veggies so that's today's plan. I'm guessing you guys don't really care but it feels good to talk about it.

    So you're part of the problem. All that insecticide spraying is killing all of the beneficials and pollinators. Stop it!

    .85 Well that wind wreaked havoc on the garden. All of the corn is laying on the ground, lettuce too and 3 tomato plants are broken off at the base

    That's gonna be expensive, hope ya got a good gig up there

    The wind is up with some gusts mid teens to near 20, rain ranges from .15>.25 within a few miles of me.

    It didn't take much to knock over the windward side corn plants

    Yeah I've had very little rain so that in itself isn't the problem, it's the wind and excessive rainfall rates that do garden damage that I don't want.

    I was hoping this storm would fizzle, I really don't feel like dealing with a TS at the moment but, since it looks like that won't happen it's time to get cleaned up in the yard and get some fresh gas for the generator. 3-5" of rain and a bit of wind could make things messy.

    I'd be inclined to keep the thread here. There will be other threads in that forum that people can refer to but some of us don't migrate over there. From what little I can see I agree with you that the coasts will be most affected but I always wonder if orographics will come into play up here in "the hills" with tropical systems. There have been a few over the years that were awesome up here with double the rainfall they saw south of here.

    .4" of soaking, hardcore rain That puts me just under 1.5" the last two weeks. I'm rollin' with the big boyz now

    I got .4" FKNA yeah!! Drought buster for sure Sun is coming out again Maybe the second line will hold together and come through later and I can pull a few more tenths. Friday looks interesting.

    ^I've gotten very little really. Under an inch total since the dry period ended.

    Oh, haha. Long day on the road yesterday, I should have looked before speaking :blush:
  14. gravitylover
    FAY? What's that?
  15. gravitylover
    I was on the road all day but watching the radar has been interesting. That storm cluster west of the river looks to have put down a lot of water. It pretty much sat and dumped for hours. Who got it and was it as much as it looked on a phone screen while driving?

    So it looks like todays storms will be further south and the mid Hudson Valley will be mostly dry, is that right? I need to run up to a little north of Albany and just want to know what to look forward to.
  17. gravitylover
    Nah, any higher than mid 80's is no good. 78-82 is perfect. Maybe you don't pay for the electric to run the AC or maybe you're just weird

    82/69 at the station a mile north and 85/72 a mile west. It's almost uncomfortable, few more minutes it will be for sure.

    More onshore flow More onshore flow ... I really don't feel the love for 90+ temps anymore.
  20. gravitylover
    Woohoo. I won't be directly under the cone of emptiness anymore.

    @Brian5671 didn't you say you were over 3 1/2"?
  22. gravitylover
    For all the storms and all the rain in the area I ended up with well under an inch for the week. It came at just the right intervals to keep the garden nicely watered though because it wasn't sunny enough for long enough to dry it out. That also means the bugs are going to town because it's been constantly damp. Hopefully the dry weekend puts them down and next week is similar. I don't need the heat like everyone else on the board. Weirdos

    30 miles to my SE it's approaching 4" now.
  24. gravitylover
    Meh, a few minutes of heavy rain, some wind, a couple of thunderclaps and a few lightning flashes. Nothing to write home about but it did drop thetemp about 15°. .4"
  25. gravitylover
    That line is just getting to me now, rumhley grumbley... Lets see how it does.
