  1. Yeah LOL is right. Another flood watch, another dry day
  2. 76 with full sun at 11 am on July 11 is fantastic! Got some good gardening done this morning. Looking ahead is mostly 80s with maybe near 90 a couple days. One of my son's friends just moved to Austin and is in shock over the temps there.
  3. Managed 0.29 with some showers today and still have <1" for the last two weeks.
  4. 0.06 overnight and still no decent rain for many weeks here. Just got my new irrigation system that will make watering the garden much easier. Looks like I'll get to use it today here in Maryland's desert.
  5. I watered the garden knowing we'd miss out again. I got a brief shower, then this solid line formed just east and moved NE. It's like clockwork. Just got a nice new irrigation system today that will be so nice to install and avoid fighting gnats, mosquitos and tumbleweeds to water the garden.
  6. That's OK Getting our old fence replaced today so we need the Germantown shield. Watching them dig the new holes and man it's dry down deep. Tough folks as the sun's out and the HX is 90
  7. My point/click has a high of 79 on Sunday with sun. How's that for mid-July! Hoping for rain for my parched yard this evening, but wouldn't be surprised to get shut out for the whole week
  8. She's being singing in Germantown for weeks. I'll just see myself over to the drought thread
  9. Not for Germandesert. Near shut out as usual. Simply does not rain here in summer
  10. Sorry but LOL at those maps. Anything showing more than a trace for Germandesert is instantly wrong
  11. Running the sprinklers hard this morning as I am sure that we get shut out again today. Soil is dry as sand and the lawn feels like concrete.
  12. Just incredible. Missed a storm just north earlier, then just south now. To add insult, a new part blew up a mile east and moved off. I'll be out tomorrow morning watering my parched, cracked hard garden beds. Germandesert in full summer mode
  13. Painfully close miss to the north for my parched yard. Hope we get another shot at one later. The nice thing is it sucked a lot of heat out of the air
  14. 55 and gorgeous. Great sinkhole fixing weather
  15. My spot got lucky for once and managed to score 0.46 based on the iWeather map. Decent shower that we needed
  16. Good thing this reading from near Brunswick, GA isn't right!
  17. Time for a new gauge! A couple weeks ago my gauge had an inch when the iweathernet rainfall map had less than 0.5. Now for yesterday's event, iweather's map says 0.64 which correlates with amounts in that CoCoRaHS map above, and that darn gauge has 1.1 I think the dang thing might be metric but I don't see any markings saying so. Heck with it I'll just go by that map
  18. Managed 0.64 which is decent but was hoping for 1.0 for the dry ground. Much heavier amounts close by in all directions. That's Germandesert in summer!
  19. The Germantown shield is active today with everything dodging just west right as it arrives. This one looked like a can't-miss, until it did. I won't be shocked if I have to water stuff tomorrow
  20. What an awesome video! That nasty cell looks to put a direct hit on Richmond
  21. First shot as we are catching the edge of that cluster passing through western MontCo. I am hoping for an inch total as we've been dry and my lawn feels like concrete when walking on it.
  22. Got a patch of clouds, some gusty winds, and it's 69 degrees at 2 pm near on June 18. Unbelievable! Gonna sip beer and cook out tonight with jeans and long-sleeve shirt LOL
  23. Spoke too soon! It completely disintegrated just as it was almost here and split south. Germantown is definitely back
  24. Quite a cluster of storms heading for my area. That's what I get for watering the gardens this morning
  25. Gonna miss this round and will have to do some watering
