Today may break it but MDT has not had a normal or AN day in Aug as of yet. Yesterday was the seventh consecutive day of BN temps at MDT (going back to July) and they stand at -2.6 for the month so far. MDT has now had one 8-day and two 7-day BN stretch's during Met summer. Who would have thought it.
Most models suggest a FFW will be needed somewhere in the next two days. Rgem shows 1-2" before dark tomorrow along the M/D line....GFS kicks the Pillow/Tamaqua split in the splits to come up with this by later Monday. GFS shows 1/2-1" over you before dark tomorrow but that is a convection bullseye.
4:45AMer's. 61 and sitting on .8" of gold. It shut down quickly after I said approaching 1" so not really approached. That gives us 1.3" in the last 5 weeks and about 4 1/2" over the last 65 days. Summer deficit at around 4 1/2" and year to date around 11".
Statewide YTD mean areal smoothed over a bit by rain in N Franklin but still a substantial number over 7. LSV still in a decent hole. If this ULL can come close enough to us Sun-Tue it may cut into this greatly.
Wgal said rain Sunday afternoon and Mon. Not Joe Calhoun...backup met.

On a large scale, rain has not been an issue on the 1/4 side of the East coast recently. Only two small areas in severe drought with one of those two also having an extreme portion. Quite the clean map I must say.

12Z GFS and CMC both much wetter on Sunday afternoon into Mon...hope that trend continues and gets us back to where we were a few days ago. Rain enters the LSV on both sometime mid afternoon Sunday.
