  1. Sure, if you had a lot of trees but most people do not on 1-2 acres. I mean anyone can do anything but to me it is hard to ask someone to just let their 1-2 no tree acres yard grow what it wants. Understand your opinion though.
  2. That is sustainable in a city environ but hard to ask people with 1-2 acres to just "let it go". In Florida, maintaining a lawn is a requirement of many gated and HOA based communities. The water bill is sometimes 200-300/MO
  3. If you go to Delaware/Southern MD you will see those giant football field sized irrigators that straddle the fields. Not sure if they just do water or do water and some kind of plant food/fertilizer/pest deterrent.
  4. I think it may be against the rule to water grass in some areas.
  5. It is too big for that stuff in my opinion. Needs some kind of ground cover. Insurance paid to rip out and reseed once, and I am trying to keep some of that alive. I have been fairly quiet about it this year compared to the past. Two or Three years ago (I think) the drought was WV. Western MD and only a small area of PA near me while a lot of you guys where swimming in rain on and off...I had trouble being so composed then. Plus, this is NOTHING compared to that. 1"-2" in about 90 days. At one point we had a 15" deficit for the year (as did HGR....12-15).
  6. HRRR has rain showers coming through this afternoon (light) so not going to be too dry.
  7. It is too big to do much else with it. It is grass or let it die vs. Clovers or rocks.
  8. CMC. It is 78 here at 2:25. Did someone leave their door open with the AC on? The only idiom here is me for planting more grass.
  9. This is when it all started going downhill...not ITT's post, the "Get ready for heavy rain" post by the NWS. We got around 1/4" and other than July 4th, it has been drips and drabs since early June.
  10. The area from Northern Dauphin north (and East) has been wet most summers for seemingly 1/2 decade now. I just near 2" since June 1 here myself. The first half of June was a nothing burger.
  11. Cloudy and 76 degrees @ 35 before nooner. A pair of Windows Open LSV night ahead.
  12. Both Sat and next week. Next week the front gets closer to us and a risk of some very warm days if no clouds/rain but also a much closer locale to any waves Warm meaning low 90's. Short-term models show a wave forming and moving out to our SE over the next 48-72 hours. Actually, more than one wave but the one Sat afternoon is closer to us due to the front starting the move back north.
  13. I knew there was something I was missing so I was curious as much about what it was vs. you not having the right figure.
  14. Looks like 2020 was higher with 82.2 but that is the only one I see above this year....81.8 being tied with 1999 for second.
  15. Northeast Drought Summary The entire region was warmer than normal this week. The warmest areas were from eastern New York up to Maine, with some pockets having departures of 8-10 degrees above normal. Above-normal precipitation was recorded in the northern portions of the region from New York into Maine where more than 200% of normal precipitation was measured. Areas from southern New Jersey into eastern Virginia also picked up more than 200% of normal precipitation this week. Most other areas were drier than normal, which allowed for some expansion and intensification of the drought status. Abnormally dry conditions were expanded in southern New Hampshire and central Pennsylvania. Moderate drought was introduced into portions of eastern Pennsylvania and northern New Jersey and also expanded in central New Jersey. Moderate and severe drought were expanded in southern Pennsylvania, west Virginia and northern Virginia. Severe drought was expanded and extreme drought introduced over much of West Virginia and northern Virginia. The coastal areas from southern New Jersey to southeastern Virginia did see a category of improvement to the moderate drought and abnormally dry conditions where the greatest rains took place.
  16. Models have a wave forming on the stalled front....right now I think people south of Harrisburg have a good shot of something just based on model reading.
  17. Ugh, my lottery graphic did not help any of the northern guys so far. Did not help me either. Pretty much only Atomic and Mitch.
  18. They also lost the record Max Min being in the low 70's now. The HRRR did poorly on that predict.
  19. I have had about 1.5" since June 14th. A little more than I thought.
  20. The was one of the frames I saw. Maybe you are South of town, I was going by the marker on the map. I am sure you told me before.
