    (MIL paying $16,000 per year to insure small home on Marco Island). It's gotten to be too much and she is getting ready to sell. She's looking at condos. We'll see how the selling goes given the insurance costs.

    My wife's mom has a little house (maybe 1200 SF?) well away from the beach on Marco Island, and the HO insurance is $16,000 per year!

    Full overcast day on deck I hope we get the advertised days of sun starting tomorrow. And sun angle - wow yesterday I noticed that the neighbor's huge pin oak is now fully shading my butterfly garden. Couple more years and that will be summer too

    Appreciate the overnight rain (about 1.5 inches) but I hate seeing so much of Sept eaten up by dark, dreary days. We have 5-plus months for that starting in November

    Real worried about Tallahassee. The town is covered with tall pines and big oaks. I was at FSU in Nov. 1985 when Kate made landfall as a weakening cat-2 (cat-1 by the time it went thru Tally) and it was a mess with big trees down everywhere and some people without power for days/weeks. This thing looks scary

    This weather is getting depressing. I'm jealous seeing sun and 80s as close by as WV

    Sunny and about 80 for the next several days with comfortable humidity. This is why I love September! And for a bonus the damn cicadas are all dead I just hate seeing the days rapidly shorten and dread the "Darkness" that is coming (what I call Nov thru March)

    My mom said she measured 3.29 compared to 5.19 that Raindrop app claimed, and those places that the app said 8-9 inches got more like 5. I think it's time to drop that one

    Got 1.3 inches and have 7.5 for the month, compared to just 1.1 for July My parents just south of Dunkirk got over 5 inches and spots across the Bay from them got 8-9! Meanwhile Annapolis got a quarter inch

    Whew! That cell scared me when it peaked with purple echoes on Radarscope but weakened just in time. Got some marble-sized hail, rain and lightning. I've seen baseball-sized hail twice and never want to again The second time was $1500 damage to my car and that was 1992 so like 4 or 5 thousand today

    I hope the Shen valley cashes in big this afternoon/evening Hotter than I expected today -- partly sunny and 88/75

    Nothing as front goes through dry but hey it'll be cooler tomorrow as I'm watering everything
  13. BlizzardNole
    Another beautiful morning! I'll try to ignore those temps I just saw for next week
  14. BlizzardNole
    Cloudy, breezy and a cool 67. Base state!

    1.3 on Saturday and 0.8 yesterday, 6.2 for the month. What a turnaround from earlier in the summer! Grass has greened back up but trees got hurt. There are yards where smaller trees have lost so many leaves that it looks like November. Even my big maples are dropping some already

    Cell tracking to my south which is fine, then one little lobe blew up on the north side which barely scraped here. It was heavy, wind whipped sheets of rain with pea-sized hail. Man it makes me wonder what the heart of that sucker was like just to my east. I got 0.5 catching just the very edge of that. Anyone in Gaithersburg or Laytonsville? Adding: whew boy now another cell blowing up just behind that heading NE

    Sun starting to break thru and a humid 77/71 Got the dreaded flash flood watch. Hope we didn't jinx it!
  18. BlizzardNole
    Looks like good rain chances again but we need this thick cloud deck to break some Low clouds, light drizzle and 72. Making me think of soup recipes
  19. BlizzardNole
    We were headed up 355 to visit friends and got caught in that very heavy cell and had to pull over north of Clarksburg. Some of those areas got 2" in about 20 minutes. I was very happy to find 1.3 in the gauge when we got home Hope everyone gets some tomorrow before the crisp fall weather arrives. And football!

    Nice to be on the downswing of average highs -- now 87 and 84 by end of month (Dulles), then we get into gorgeous September. Except I'm afraid somewhere on the east coast is going to really get clocked by a hurricane that month. Hope not
  21. BlizzardNole
    Thank you for that! It is dead-on for my spot (marked) and shows the much heavier amounts just to my east. This will be my go-to since they inexplicably ruined the iweather rainfall map which used to be really good
  22. BlizzardNole
    I'd like to know too. iweather is OK and there's always cocorahs but I wish there was something more accurate and consistent
  23. BlizzardNole
    Looks like I'll end up with 3.0 for the event spread out over two days which is perfect. Now looking forward to some great weather starting tomorrow
  24. BlizzardNole
    Such a huge difference over short distances. I've seen some 4-5 inch amounts just east of me in central/east MoCo and they are under just a pain train of rain. I have 2.5 total which is perfect
  25. BlizzardNole
    Whoa you have just a firehose aimed at your area! I am just on the edge of it with off and on mod rain and I am fine with that
