  1. Getting the best shower in weeks here finally. Hoping for more tomorrow and a further west track for next week's tropical system
  2. Full overcast with blazing 97 degree temp. I usually love summer but I'll be glad when this one's over
  3. We couldn't even get it done with a cold front plowing into a 100-105 degree airmass a couple weeks ago. I'm hoping that tropical system coming into the eastern Gulf takes a further west track up the coast than predicted Starting out at 78/72. Today is gonna blaze!
  4. Dadgummit I told you not to mess that up! I hope tomorrow and Saturday we all cash in on some nice storms. I'd really love to see a nighttime storm with lots of lightning. Been a minute
  5. That second one is severe warned! Stephens City better not mess this up 93/72 and sunny
  6. Hoping for a change in rain fortunes in August after 1.9 in June and 1.1 in July. Low bar Sunny and 80/70. Cicada warning in effect
  7. Wow congrats on the 2.4 inches! That's more than twice the amount I got for the month
  8. Congrats, we want amounts! Please let Ocean City MD on Labor Day weekend have a thunderstorm so I can witness just one this summer
  9. Nice breeze though Meanwhile Darnestown/Potomac area AGAIN with the pop ups. Seems like a daily thing I see the sky to my south darken and hear thunder. Lawns and gardens must be happy down there
  10. Great! Now if we can get some of the better models to agree
  11. Question: does anyone have the RainDrop app and found it to be very inaccurate? I got 0.22 in my gauge yesterday and the app had me at 0.59. I also found a couple CoCoRahs obs that were way lower than the app had for those spots. It has me at 1.78 since July 1; I have measured 1.08 Anyway, sun breaking out as we get dragged into three straight days of 95-100 degrees
  12. 0.22 from a quick thundershower for the first time in a couple weeks which puts July total just over an inch
  13. This from earlier in case anyone thinks I exaggerate the incredible desolate dryness of this craphole. This happens all summer and it will not rain here again until deep into fall
  14. 80/68 with sun and calm. Feels like a hot one today We visited Calvert yesterday and it was strange seeing green grass due to good rain there last week
  15. Very nice morning out except for the cicadas which are shrieking already. I wonder if they thrive in the new arid summer climate we have? LWX calling for showers again next week -- LOL. We barely got a drop last week with a stationary front and a cold front, and couldn't get any the week before with a strong front plowing into 103 degree air mass. We are going to OCMD end of Aug - I hope to see a thunderstorm there as it will be the only chance
  16. At this point I've just accepted that it won't rain appreciably here until we get into the Nov - April period of cloudy, wet and and temps in 40s-50s. I'm keeping the garden and potted plants going and let the grass go Pleasant overcast and 75
  17. Yep. I chuckled at LWX's P&C forecast of 1.25-1.75 inches for Monday/Monday night period plus more strong rain working thru Thursday, and laughed at the ridiculous qpf maps showing 2-3" for the week. As I knew would happen I only have a few hundredths of an inch for the whole week will finish July with well under an inch
  18. NOPE. It won't rain in my desolate spot until fall
  19. So the rain later today looks to be central VA to southern MD. Another whiff. Then the dry front tomorrow and no more chances of rain for a very long time
  20. This! It's the only way my micro-desert gets any real rain before the 6-month wet period of 40s/50s and rain starts in November. I hope we get a big one that turns Germantown's roads into rivers and washes all the tumbleweeds and gila monsters away
  21. Congrats on the rain rich getting richer. It'll take me to the end of Sept to accumulate that much
  22. 0.06 in the desolate Germantown desert while places close by to the east got over an inch. Only 0.86 for a July total (NO it will not rain a drop here the rest of the month) My sprinkler system is running hard this morning. The grass is gone and this time it's not coming back
  23. RadarScope. It costs a few bucks and is great. I wish it had a rainfall total since they killed iweathernet
  24. This one from iweathernet is OK. It used to be great as you could zoom way in and was accurate. For some reason they ruined the zoom in ability. I've also see the 24-hour and 72-hour not match up Anyone know a better one?
