Rain not withstanding, I just perused the models, and surface temps on Wednesday, per the Euro and the GFS, keep me in the upper 40's for a high temperature. Absurd...

Just about every summer forecast I have seen has the eastern US cold. 

 

Edit: Maybe it changed? Last I saw AccuWeather had Northeast cooler than average and better than average but I just pulled TWC, AccuWeather, and NOAA and all appear above-average (1-2 degrees) temp wise with above average precip.

I really hope my theory is wrong, and those cold outlooks are as well. I don't need 40+ 90 degree days, but I'd like it to predominantly be in the low to mid 80's.

It looks like a good bit of rain headed our way... again.

Crazy. We went from too little to too much. 

I know most of you will enjoy it, but I wonder if what we're seeing will be the general theme of the entire summer. 

In my highly uneducated theory, the pattern that developes in May seems to carry through most of the summer season.

Just as you guys like your winters to be winters, with cold and snow, I like my summers to be actual summers, with generally warm to hot days, broken up by occasional late day thunderstorms.

Mow # 8…wasn’t real long but cut it anyway and weed whacked.

Hopefully we get an answer. That is a pretty cool graphic.

My Wednesday to Friday forecast doesn't get me above 60 for any of the three days along with the rain...

.30 fron the thunderstorm in about 15 min.

Got 0.61" out of it.

The line collapsed "a bit" before it got here, but we still got a good hit. Half inch in 15 minutes with some lightning/thunder and bit of a breeze. 

Points south and east likely got it better.

That line looks quite healthy, but it appears, per future radar, that it stays primarily north of I-80.

I stand corrected. Everything exploded, and unless something changes drastically, I'm going to get slammed in about 15 minutes.

62 degrees and the radar is not looking great this morning. 
More rain incoming it appears.

Couple deer this morning but they seemed to be passing thru.

Here comes the polar vortex for Memorial Day weekend you couldn't make this up

I hope not. I didn't look at the models, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Two nice days next week and then right back in it again...

A repeating pattern.

Not good for a person battling depression. It makes it infinitely worse.

Right now, dry air seems to be eating away at the northeastern flank of the precipitation shield. We had light rain earlier, but now it's, if anything, just a light drizzle/mist.

Getting sick of these ULL's. I sure wish the pattern would change already...

I guess the fact that the rain will be spread out over several days will keep flooding down, but still, the ground is so saturated from last week, Creek and river levels will still be pretty high.

All I've got to say is that I'm not looking forward to another week long multi day rain event, but this week to be a repeat of last week with rain chances from Tuesday into next weekend.

Ugh... The dark and drearies are not good for someone battling depression.

Low of 44 with .37” of rain. Two-day total is 2.08”.  Playing golf later today for the first time this year. Perfect day for it. 

Hit 'em low. After all this rain, you don't want any "fried eggs" on the fairways.

1.71" today. 

5.77" since last Friday

My bad. I used my phone to get the totals for all the rain. Looking at the main desktop unit, I missed some rainfall. The totals since last Friday are such:

1.71" for Friday.

2.56" for the entire Thurs-Fri event.

5.86" for the week beginning Sunday, May 4th

6.40" for the entire period from the beginning of the ULL starting Friday, May 2nd
