Your rain shadow is a tough one for typical east-moving t-storms. You need a decaying tropical system with NW moving rain bands

Partly sunny and 83 - turned into a nice afternoon for sitting out. Got just 0.2 total for the week (all yesterday), which amounts to about one twentieth of what the 7-day qpf forecast said a few days ago. LOL

Nuthin burger here again. We might be moving to Prince Frederick in a few months so maybe I'll actually see more than one thunderstorm a year. Summer in Germantown is sad

Some light rain but it's becoming obvious that the big rain predictions a couple days ago are gonna bust big in my area

I'm liking the look on radar better than yesterday's skinny, fast-moving line. My yard and butterfly garden need some rain pretty bad now

Hope tomorrow's FFW turns out better than today's 0.0

You're good. We do fine with stratiform rain events, but thunderstorms are orographically blocked here and they are very rare, maybe 2 or 3 per summer. I expect less than a half inch for the whole week

Just missed and the line consolidated to my east. Hope I have better luck the rest of the week. I'll need to water the garden this evening

Radar looks like very light shower but it's solidly moderate rain coming down. Efficient rain processes? It must be pouring in central VA to southern MD

Steady lt/mod rain for the last hour and about 1.5 in the gauge. Perfect!

0.85 from that first round and a fresh 75 degrees. Off to a great start!

Flush hit by a cell that blew up west of Gaithersburg and rolled through; will measure when it stops. The pressure is off now for later rounds. Hope everyone gets in on the action!

Whoa DCA at 86/75 already. GAI listed at 87/77 -- dunno if accurate but it sure feels that hot out there! C'mon drenchers!!

I need rain bad as I've missed out for several days now. That FF watch jinx makes me nervous A sweaty 78/78 to start

Can't believe I got some garden work done with temps in the upper 60s!
