Wow nice hit! That's more rain than I've had in seven weeks. Not a drop and I don't expect any rain here for a very long time yet - maybe by mid-Oct
-
WPC saying 1 inch plus the next three days. I don't believe that for a second! I got all of 0.6 for the whole month of August and most of July's rain fell the first two days of the month. The crushing drought will continue
-
Upcoming week looks great too, aside from no rain in sight. I got 0.6 total for August after a very dry July yikes My ideal would be continued BN temps thru Sept then AN temps in October
-
It's hard not to be pessimistic when my last good winter was 2019, and last winter not working out despite lots of chances really sucked. Oh, and Pensacola, FL getting a great snowstorm when we didn't!
-
Whoa 29 right now
-
I looked and was surprised to see June was just +0.6 and July +1.4 (DCA). Check out this stretch in 2012 end of June beginning of July. And weren't a lot of people out of power for days after that derecho in late June?
-
Yeah this is getting ridiculous with day after day of dreary, but yet I have to run the damn sprinklers (it has not rained more than a couple tenths at a time here since July 2). I hope next week's forecasts of sunny and cool are right!
-
So dreary! Hope we see some sun today. Looking out the windows at the gym yesterday seeing trees with half their leaves on the ground due to the extreme drought here along with the gray sky made it look like November
-
Got 0.4 with that nice shower which is a deluge for these arid parts. Not much lighting and just a little wind. Looking forward to lower temps for a few days
-
Except for the heat and humidity, it looks like a fall day here with people blowing and raking big piles of leaves. Trees are very stressed in this severe drought
-
Got 0.20 which isn't much for normal areas but it's the first measurable rain in weeks in the desert. Some of our streets look like it's October with all the leaves piling up. I've had only 1.6 inches since July 2
-
Seeing the hazy look from the smoke driving around yesterday made me think of hazy/hot/humid weather back in the 70s and 80s, but the temp was cool. Weird! Looks like a beautiful stretch coming up -- until we cook next week
-
Finally hauled out the sprinklers rather than just hand watering the gardens to try to battle this severe drought. Hoping to soften up the concrete hard ground a little so I can do some weeding Overcast and 71. We'd be dying in winter seeing all the precip to the south with a high to our north blocking it!
-
Whoa 43 at Bittinger near Deep Creek. Crazy
-
July total 3.3 which is decent for the Central Maryland Desert. 1.7 was July 1-2 and 0.8 today, with almost nothing in between. Great temps coming up but super dry, likely less than an inch of rain for the next month
-
Managed to get 0.8 which is amazing for such an arid area. Best rain in weeks and might be the last for a very long time. I am looking forward to the gorgeous temps over the next several days
-
Finally catching a good shower although it'll be short as I'm getting the skinny part of the line. Jealous of Mt. Airy where two cells merged over them! I'll take anything to dent this nasty drought
-
It's incredible how much it rains in southern MoCo. Numerous areas there have 8-10.5" for the month and are getting trained again today while nothing here in the desert just 10-20 miles away.
-
Radar looking like a mostly I-95 and east event.
-
This makes you wonder what it feels like when places have hit rare super high dew points of 88 or 90.
-
Just got back in after watering and man is it hot already. At least no more mowing needed as the grass is completely dormant. Looking forward to spending hours out on the deck starting this weekend!
-
LOL at this point I'd be thrilled with a half inch. My total since July 2 has been 0.8 and everything is just parched. It's my last summer here as we're moving to southern Calvert next spring. I grew up in southern MD so I know what that means for winters, but maybe I'll actually see thunderstorms in the dang summer
-
I've been out some and yeah it's hot but not as horrible as expected. I cannot wait for this cold front though! I doubt I'll get any rain here and will water everything tomorrow as usual. But great temps are coming and all of next week looks good!
-
It is so hot! 87/77 with no wind making just a 15-minute dog walk a sweaty one. That Canadian airmass can't get here quick enough
-
CoCoRaHS for July 3 to today shows widespread 7-9 plus inch amounts in southern MoCo and 4-6 inches around Gaithersburg, compared to 0.8 here. What an incredible micro-climate desert this place is, and it's not just this year. This is normal. What a tough place to try to have a gardening hobby.
