No rain for me up here unless more of a north trend. We just took a 8 mile bike ride. Many small trees have drooping leaves. Not turning color just drooping or even turning brown on some small trees.

Fires just exploding in California today. Towering pyrocumulonimbos creating shadowing. Wonder if it's raining ash downstream?

Few musings... After furiously watering the lawn all summer I gave up a couple of days ago. I can water an area for an hour and then I dig down 1/2" and it's rock hard. The ground is so dry below the surface that watering doesn't do much good especially with a large lawn with a well. Not going to push it anymore. Interesting to see the Colorado snow maps. After days of 90's I wonder how much can accumulate on grass? The soil must have so much residual heat. If Denver can get 7" that really cancels out the "ground is still too warm for the snow to stick theory". I never gave much credence to that anyhow. Okay, back to endless boring,nice weather. Next interesting thing to watch is if "Sally" can sneak under the ridge next week and threaten the US. Love to get some tropical rain up here.

Interesting picture. This one was taken from a jet. At first it seemed odd the pyrocumulous didn't match up to the fire but this shows the same thing. Probably the same anvil and fire.

Typical Denver It's 97F (1pm local time) in Denver today. Will the ground be too warm for the snow to stick?

5.19" July and August but 1.56" last week helded the brown lawn

Wow. Nice with more showers later .60" 11am for me

937mb. Port Arthur is going to take a beating. Wonder if heating oil is produced there? Maybe time to quickly fill up the oil tanks before prices go up the next few days??

Heavy thunderstorm with pea size hail winding down. .50" in about 10 minutes. Top wind gust 27mph

84/66 Line of storms approaching. This should be the first solid hit of summer. Really looking forward to the rain. Webcam should be interesting to watch www.bridgewaternhweather.com

Since you posted an hour ago another burst of convection has started. So the waxing and waning as modeled seems to be happening

Very interesting and unusual situation coming up with Marco and Laura. Everything would have to come together just right (or wrong depending on your viewpoint) but we could have 2 land falling hurricanes within 24 hours coming ashore at the same place. It could be a bad situation for New Orleans. If Marco came ashore just SW of the city it would drive water into Lake Pontchartrain. If Marco then turned more west and weakened quickly the water would not drain back into the Gulf. Lots of "ifs" but Laura could follow the same path driving more water into the canal system. This will be fascinating from a meteorological standpoint to see how this all plays out.

Just looked at the 12Z GFS. Possibilities of 2 storms hitting the same area in Louisiana, one after another.

Wow on the 12Z GFS. A possibility of 2 hurricanes hitting the same area one after another? Interesting weather for Louisiana

PF, This is a beautiful picture. Even the framing is perfect. Nice to see him so healthy

67F Cool breeze with light rain just ending. One rumble of thunder. .03"

I'll be happy with my 2". I hope this is not a week of everything sliding NW to SE just north of me so I can smell the rain at times without receiving a drop

"either way, this may as well be black-and-white, wan-drawn couple of faces making eggs in a struggling economic kitchen, while an off-set homaged cigarette smoking clown sits behind them" This is pure TT language. Love it

Going through some Derecho videos. Now this is a severe thunderstorm. I found the video unusual. Unlike one super gust front it keeps going and getting worse. Looks like Cat 3-4 hurricane damage

83/67 30% Cu with a nice breeze. AC has been going since yesterday but almost time to open the windows.

Is anyone else seeing large amounts of grasshoppers? Up here around Newfound Lake people are talking and posting pictures. The past 6 weeks have been very warm and dry. Is there a correlation?

Ha. 89.4F we never made it to 90F. I did hit 90.2F earlier this summer.

85/72 Noon. Highest of summer is 90F. Towering Cu southwest.

The bow seems to be heading right for Chicago. Anyone who has time on their hands during the next hour or two this earthcam site should be interesting to watch https://www.earthcam.com/usa/illinois/chicago/field/?cam=fieldmuseum

GFS is so dry for me. Through 300 hours it has .25" for Plymouth NH. I got 2.60" of rain in July and .60" so far in August. Ouch..
