    That line is just getting to me now, rumhley grumbley... Lets see how it does.

    It has some wonderful clouds, it slid past a few miles to my west and looked good. The next one looks even better.
  3. gravitylover
    Overcast with thin clouds, temp is 85. It's muggy and uncomfortable.

    *fizzle* It looked so good for so long. Again, I can pretty much see where it's raining as it slides by to my west. I'm getting some decent wind. Maybe it'll set the last 50 tomatoes that have been waiting out the heat and now that I've got some female flowers on the melons maybe those will pop too.

    Take a look at that storm complex headed south into Columbia and Dutchess County. That looks like the real deal. Duck...

    Ha! The same thing happened to me. About a mile to my east was 1+ and I was in that light blue zone. All told I'm ok with it though because a couple of wet days in a row and the ground is soaked.

    JC getting a good soaking today. Finally...

    I've had storms drop west of me and now they're east but I've been in the slot all afternoon. It's been a really great cloud show with comstant rolling rumbles and a stray raindrop or three.
  9. gravitylover
    A mile or so away from me got 1/2" hail, I didn't even get a drop of rain.

    I was driving around CT today working, it rained moderately a few times but nothing special. There were some great dark sky periods but again, nothing really special. My wife said it rained here (Mahopac) but not much at all, it was dry when I got home at 6. Edit: looks like .12 here

    I know that we're down on overall rainfall but this constant wetness is a disaster for my garden that was doing so well. I had to remove a half dozen plants this morning due to a cabbage worm infestation and the slugs are going to town on others but I think I got that under control. I'm also seeing a fair bit of rot happening and there was none at all last week. I can handle intermittent large amounts but not things being wet all the time. Sorry, back to your regular programming.

    Don that second pic is fantastic. Print it and frame it. I got .03 and now it's beautiful. See what y'all can do about keeping the bulk of the wetness away from me for the next few days, send it all up to JC, he needs it.

    Before the clouds took over I saw some awesome towers to my south and to the west. This is obviously just a guess but I'd say 40k or higher with lightning shooting up and down. My wife even realized the awesomeness which is rare.

    I bet that made ya happy

    I'm getting some really light drizzle. It's really dark and thunder is rumbling just to my west, has been for over an hour.
  16. gravitylover
    Damn this rain... I had pretty much dealt with the bugs in the garden but now it's overrun with grubs and cabbage worms It looks bad enough that I might lose most of my potatoes and I'm going to fight like hell not to lose the cauliflower and broccoli but it may be a lost cause too. This morning I sat on the ground pulling slugs for an hour and that's after I treated for them. Grrr...

    Try standing outside waiting for them to work on you car, this sun is brutal. Car repair shops all still have their waiting rooms closed so you're stuck with the parking lot. 88-89° with very little breeze is tough to just stand around in.
  18. gravitylover
    Nah I barely got any rain, I'm betting it's well under .1" and I'm 55 miles due north of midtown Manhattan. That's ok though I don't want more rain for another day or two, the garden doesn't need it or want it after yesterday. edit: .16"
  19. gravitylover
    Nothing at all here (yet).
  20. gravitylover
    I got about the same, 90 minutes of steady moderate capped off with a gutter overrunning deluge. Garden seems happy other than one head of lettuce that got crushed and I think I can hear the lawn growing
  21. gravitylover
    I just got the heaviest rain of the year so far. It totally overwhelmed the gutters and poured over in sheets.
  22. gravitylover
    Well this turned out much better than expected, 90 minutes of good steady rain that came in gently to wet the ground so the heavier stuff didn't run off. The bad part is when the sun comes out the lawn is going to go crazy but be too wet to mow for a few days. While I love a good storm this is what we needed.
  23. gravitylover
    Radar kind of looks like this first round is going to stay north, I got a few drops but that's it so far. I'm right on the Putnam/Westchester line for reference.
  24. gravitylover
    58*, clear and calm. Another great morning.
  25. gravitylover
    It never really warmed up here today, it's actually been another COC day. One station in town is at 89 now but everything else topped out at 86 or lower. Dry with mostly clear to partly cloudy with a light breeze made for perfect outside napping conditions this afternoon
