Radar all bark and no bite unless it's convective. This is more canal east for big rains I think.

you aren't kidding. radar looks juicy, in actuality it is barely sprinkling out.

How is it even legal for crap like that to be published? 

The author of the article should be fired and whoever is responsible for allowing that to be published should be fired. 

anybody can post anything they want on Twatter, factual or not. complete cesspool.

Last year was mostly stale airmasses and we had that weird Nino-esque pattern for a while. OF course the one time we got a legit arctic airmass, that zone just N of the pike got the mini-screwjie in the Dec 17th storm.

But yeah, if this is going to be more of a gradient pattern that is classic for La Nina, then it would be surprising to see another southern seasonal jackpot.

I'd like to place an order for a repeat of '07-08, with  Feb '15 for dessert.

It's insane to think that even 3-months ago everyone was crying drought...now look at us. 

by everyone, you mean only DIT, right?

Here's a better look.  Some portion of what's come so far should be added to this.

 

maybe wishful thinking, but that seems to be pretty high on the north side. I thought things were trending sort of south. 3" at MHT is nothing to shake a stick at

Damage of a different kind here in Southbury....

DIT just popped a woody

this is the one time in my life that i hope the Tolland mastiff is the jackpot, with a sharp north cut-off.

ok let's cherry pick one month. July-didn't you have around 18" of rain (I had 15"). my monthly avg temp was ~2 degrees BN. what was your July avg temp compared to normal?

Quarries are still very popular here. There’s one by my house that you need to be invited to join through a current member. Otherwise, they kick you out.  There are a bunch around here though. 

i used to frequent a quarry in Rockport, it had a big crane hanging out over it. I crawled out on it to jump in the water one time, but i chickened out. It was seriously high.

i am really disappointed in my lawn this year, thanks to all the rain. red thread is running wild, and there are about 300 different species of mushrooms growing. Usually I aerate and overseed in the early fall, but going to skip it this year. it's just too wet to mess around with.

summer started out pretty dry with 3" May, 1.5" June. Since then, 15.5" July, 5.25" August, notso dry.

.25" sunday, 1" Monday (mostly after 6pm), 1.8" deluge overnight, all of which fell between 2 and 3:30am. 2.9" storm total. Up to just over 5" on the month. soggy times.

He right there on the graphic says Tropical storms. Thats my hometown,  ground zero for 38 and 54 hurricanes and worst damage in RI from Sandy 

look at the header of the graphic. It clearly says "Two Hurricane Paths".

Yeah we all want the big storm, but without having to live through the after effects lol.   Days/weeks w/o no power is brutal.

according to @weatherwiz, losing power is just an inconvenience
