This from LWX disco sounds really good! It would be awesome to get 1" here on top of the 0.65 from last night
Locally heavy rainfall is likely over southern
Maryland, particularly across Calvert and St. Mary`s Counties.
In those counties, 3+ inch rainfall totals in a short period of
time are possible which could lead some localized flooding in
those areas.
We're in a new construction home which means trying to start a lawn. I gave up and will try again this fall. As for garden, I just have a few containers and pots I can water. I think we'll see a wet and mild winter which would help getting a lawn going.
Cloudy 71/68
Was hoping for t-storms here in the Extreme Drought area, but nothing. What a devastating summer awaits us. Less than 3" total rainfall for June-Aug. 15-20 days of 95-plus temps with multiple 100-degree days. Please October get here ASAP
I saw the cloudy sky and looked at radar -- congrats northern MD! Maybe I'll luck into a t-storm later today. I'm hoping next Monday turns into a real soaker.
This is awesome! I've had the windows open all day, now sunny and 77. Gonna be a great porch evening. Hoping for some overnight showers with the warm front
Already four 95-degree days and one 100. We're gonna post ugly number this summer, like 15 or more 95, five 100 and one 105. The 90-plus number will be hideous.
Finally caught the edge of a storm and got around a third of an inch. But damn just 2-3 miles up the road from me has gotten two flush hits in three days.
Last night was weird - the gust front produced winds of at least 50-55 mph and put numerous branches down all over the yard, including a few big ones, and snapped one of my potted plants. Then it did not rain a drop
I finally got to see a thunderstorm with some good lightning while visiting my parents in northern Calvert. Prince Frederick got a flush hit with the Mesonet station there recording 1.19 but my place (blue dot) was just outside of it. So close though!
Look at this "yard" and long hot dry summer is just getting started. I could probably just put my mower away for the season. Sunny and 75 (that's the good part!)
Nice start today with a breeze and 72. Looking forward to low/mid 80s for a couple of days before the big heat is back. Looking at possibly 100 on Thursday
Huge snowstorms in this area were 1979, 1983, 1987, 1993 (some parts), 1996, 2000 (some parts), 2003, 2010 and 2016. We are way overdue for a home run monster.
I think we are very dry through summer before finally turning to a wetter pattern in fall. That's why I have given up on getting a lawn going (new construction home finished in March). I will try again in September. I do expect a warm, wet winter which would be helpful.
