    I've wondered something similar about these random blades of grass that pop up in the driveway or walkway. No water, no fertilizer, no nothing but they mange to grow while other parts of the lawn itself are brown.  

    that's called the "fuck you" grass. 

    as in: fuck you, we can grow where you don't want us to, but can't grow where you need us.

    so much for that.  The Euro/GGEM collapsed pretty far toward the GFS' more progressive, less digging cold pool Sunday.   Bye-bye tentative severe. In fact, even QPF chances are almost dried up entirely.

    So ... should this be the case, let it be known, GFS did considerably better than either the Euro or Canadian from a range of ~96+ hours. 

    it's funny, i am planning a family gathering at the house Sunday. Based on the forecasts I have seen, i have been focusing on having an indoor event. then I wake up this morning and not a drop of rain in the forecast. weird how that works.

    Of course if i change my plan to an outdoor event, 100% chance it will rain

    Haha.  Took 20 minutes to do our last 6 hours.

    About 0.60” here in the past 6 hours of steady synoptic rain.

    Believe me, I’d rather get that over 6 hours. this heavy shit just runs right off.

    planned for some overseeding/new seeding this Fall, but not looking like it'll happen. Don't want to tax the well

    Got mine done over the weekend. Hope the well holds up during the stein

    We all know if we have a deep trough and great pattern in October, everyone would be losing their shit that we are “wasting it” too early.

    We, as members of this forum, can talk ourselves into worrying about anything when it comes to winter.  Warm autumn, cold autumn… we can get to the worrying part in multiple different ways. 

    Hold me, I’m worried about a warm cold autumnly winter

    dude, just till that shit up, plant some trees and let nature take its course. 

    be done with it, obviously you can't grow grass there.

    It doesn't look like a total wash out. Some towns may end up slipping through gaps in a couple line of showers/thunder, while other's get a couple doses.   But not like raining all the time.  I guess play it by ear

    Thanks Tip.

    i mean, I could really use the rain. Sitting at just over 1/2" here MTD. the summer fronts tend to split not long before they get here, so it is usually not very rainy. glad to hear that this is a frontal passage, not a synoptic rain event.

  8. surgical precision here. what looked like a promising line split in 2 well before showing up here. Typical.

    i have tons of yard work planned for Friday, but long-ish range forecast is showing ~50% chance of rain here. Based on how this summer has gone, i am not worried about it.
