Looks like it will vanish as it moves east. Shocker? Lol

Yep. The HRRR depicts that pretty well.

Nothing made it east of central Baltimore County... I heard the rumbles of thunder... and got a few rain drops... Still no AC for me yet. Next Wednesday looks like when I will turn it on.

First day of AC

6/5/25 at 1:50pm

Still holding out 

I am expecting to see all white on today's Drought Monitoring Report.

Got nothing but a few sprinkles from today’s storms. Thank god. Spent all morning raking baseball diamonds to play this afternoon. 

Finished off with .71. Another .2 overnight 

They fixed the wind advisory to tomorrow morning instead of Sunday 

Everything is moving out quick. Going to be a bust here in 21057

Back to steady rain and no lightning or thunder. Yeah I was questioning the 30 hour wind advisory too. 

Finally a good flash and crack of thunder. Storm in Baltimore is expanding east and north.

Just got a loud bolt out of nowhere here in Columbia.

I have had 5 flashes and some thunder in the distance. That is about it. 

Looks like a lot of the cells are weakling rapidly 

Mostly just a steady rain here in 21057. Just some lightning every once and a while 

.17 so far

Radar seems ahead of schedule relative to meso models 

They look like they are dissipating as they move NE... Still looks like a couple of hours off until they hit the Metro areas.

Baltimore County dismissing early because of the flood watch!?

huh?

12z  HRRR has shifted the heaviest stuff to the north of the M/D line.

I’m on the EYO board and we’ve had this discussion/argument with Rec and Parks for ages. I think we’re finally close to getting approval to let coaches work on fields to get them playable. They’ve refused up until now and they don’t work particularly hard to get them playable. 

Yeah we have the same problem here in Baltimore county.  They refuse to let us bring a tractor/4 wheeler on the fields to drag them.  They have to line and set out the bases. We have a group of parents that will rake the entire diamond to get it playable.  Oh and we are only allowed to use 2 bags of quick dry per field... any more than that, and the field is unplayable.   It is just plain stupid.  The tournament we were at in Elkridge this weekend... I was made aware that Howard county has the same issue as we do.

Looks good to me. Kids haven't played softball in over a week and we *might* get an outfield only practice in tonight. HoCo needs to invest in a Dome or fix the drainage on their fields because it is taking FOREVER for them to dry out. 

I am with you... This weekend is the final games of league play and conference tournament starts next weekend.  Very little time to get in any makeup games.  Our team is lucky that we do not have any makeup games... Some teams still have 3 or 4 makeup games and are already supposed to play 4 games  this weekend.

Final total is 2.38 inches

2.18 as the last batch of rain moves out

1.95 right now and I think we can get to 2.00 when the little bit of rain that is left

My gardens have been extra happy this year. 

186 inches for the year?  That has to be wrong.

THIS.

It has been quite awhile since we have had a good region-wide soaking rain over a long period of hours. Really, REALLY welcome. 

If only 5 months ago.
