That is indeed true, many seasonal warmth records have been achieved during the past 5 to 10 years along the Western pheriphery of the robost WAR. Going from New England right down into the Eastern regions of the SE states. Of note though, this summer the Atlantic SSTs are not as warm as recent summers.

Later August might really warm up from DC and points NE.

Most of the real beneficial rains misses areas that really need it.

Rainfall totals for the Eastern areas really doesn't look like anything too special. Very speculative looking out determining where greater than half an inch of rain may fall. Could very well be a dry week for certain areas despite the clouds .

I hope it's more widespread this time.

That might change this week. LOL.

I plan to overseed earlier this year. Sept 1 st versus the 21 st. Despite having poa trivialis issues. Will see what happens. Was thinking of skipping overseed and using just nitrogen every 4 weeks combined with controlled watering.

There have been two corridors of heavy rainfall the past two weeks one from Dover East and Southeast and another from Philadelphia East Northeast across central Southern New Jersey

How many days did it take for your seeds to germinate?

Area of rainfall and thunderstorms seems to be gathering more coverage in West Virginia. Hopefully we can cash in on some rainfall later today

Pretty cool.

WPC precip trending drier for next week. Would have been nice to get an inch or more of rain.

Its been over for the last 4 years. Nothing new.

End of the week guidance doesn't look too robust with rainfall opportunities , possibly go a week without hardly any rain and then if we miss the end of the week rainfall change another week with no rain. Looks ugly for vegetation, lawns and trees.

Almost like a typical winter time shift East with the models , can you imagine all that snow to the East with Northern Delaware, Baltimore and DC with a dusting.

New Jersey a winner again.

It simply seems that even in the medium term it can not be trusted. So many failed forecasts by the Euro and the EPS.

Euro sucks.

At least it's something.

The probability of rain has certainly gone downhill just like the probabilities of snow in the winter. Looks to be the most significant period coming up regarding the combo of dry and hot. Hopefully a cool down later in August.

You might be right, but the line looks better now. The NWS has issued various marine warnings for the upper Chessy Bay. 04 PM EDT Sun Aug 1 2021 DCZ001-MDZ005-006-008-011-013-014-503>508-VAZ054-020200- District of Columbia-Prince Georges-Central and Southeast Howard-Southern Baltimore-Carroll-Northwest Montgomery-Northern Baltimore-Anne Arundel-Central and Southeast Montgomery-Southeast Harford-Cecil-Northwest Harford-Northwest Howard-Arlington/Falls Church/Alexandria- 904 PM EDT Sun Aug 1 2021 ...A LINE OF STRONG THUNDERSTORMS WILL AFFECT THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA...SOUTHEASTERN CARROLL...NORTHWESTERN ANNE ARUNDEL...

WPC shifted heaviest rains eastward. Still decent the more East you are.

You just don't get it do you? We are not even talking about tornadoes bud, talking about general rainfall probabilities, excessive rainfall, and the potential for damaging winds. Should have been a wide area of at least some action, but the majority was well north and in the Southern areas more so scattered. You commnet is troll-ish. And wow, you kow geography, you are correct this is not the Plains.

Pathetic system, again the hype was an indication of the likely failure. Except for Philly and North and central NJ. Most of my rain has fallen outside of flash flood watches and likely events. Strange summer. I really thought we were going to get nailed today.

I hope you are right. Here the line fizzled, hardly any rain.
