Did you steal ITT pics? LOL

Some fairly thick irony there...getting soaked while removing the pump, which was there for the drought, because you fear for a flood.

12 of the 22 days have featured highs below 80. Lemonade, penny-farthing, and Gazebo weather.

66 and Varibly Cloudy at noon. Up to .6 now with a nice .2 hit this past hour. MDT has now had 17 BN and 5 AN day's for the month with a current -2.3 BN for the month.

Hardest rain all week right now. Water that grass!

Ditto. I gave up early.

Precipitation Potential Placement Precipitation Potential Placement is a derived parameter combining precipitable water and low-level mean RH to help better place where rainfall will occur. Research has been published in the National Weather Association Digest in 2003 and stems from research and operational use of this product originally developed at NESDIS and Rod Scofield for satellite rainfall estimates dating back to 1981. Rainfall is usually maximized where the best low level convergence and instability overlay with the highest values for this parameter. The risk for heavy rainfall increases as values go up. Additionally, thresholds for precipitation also change based on temperatures. Onset of rainfall ranges from around 0.3 inches with temperatures below 30 to 1.0 inches above 80. Values above 1.0-1.4 inches with temperatures below 60 usually increase the risk for heavy rainfall while values above 1.6-2.0 inches increase the risk for heavy rainfall events with temperatures above 60.

I always look up stuff a-la-carte when I read it (map specific) then forget and have to go back. Maybe someone knows of good tutorials for a larger scale read into it. This page has a lot of info. https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/mesoanalysis/help/begin.html

Not sure about year but summer, I agree. Anything convective moving west to east has to deal with the Valley to my west as it passes out of the Allegheny's. I see a lot of disappearing stuff as it gets closer. I am fine with the .4" so far. More rain next week hopefully. I think I average a good 25% more than MDT in the winter as I live over 800' and rapidly rising (~1900' less than 5 min away) and wring out a lot of these systems that comes at us from the southwest.

12Z HRRR and 3K through Saturday daylight which is when most of the weekend rain would fall. Winners and losers look. Could be mostly over until next week for some of the unlucky which is me in both these depictions but still have hope for a bit more.

They all went to Florida....I just spoke to someone in Ocala. Almost 12" there in the last 60 hours.

When I was in G-Burg yesterday it was wet the entire time, I was there. Cross Blue Ridge summit back home, bone dry. It rained a bit over .1 last night but we had no rain all daylight yesterday.

You must have some other members of the board blocked. :-)

Maybe he meant to type .09? :-)

I have been able to stop watering myself so that part is good...just no help for the drought beyond less evaporation with the sub being obscured more. So little to no grass growth but maybe when the sun comes out.

In one hour you almost doubled my total for the past 4-5 days. Pillow FTW.

Sat and Sun looking a drier now with just some late afternoon evening pop up stuff tomorrow and Sun (mesos.) Less than .10 overnight so sitting under 1/2" total so far here at ~ .4".

Gust to 25 out here.

Safe travels!

It is not windy over in Gettysburg either and it is raining there and not here (back home). Been totally dry here since this AM. So, I did not need the shirt after all as G-Burg is where I got out of the car. It was much more humid there than here.

It is windy over here so was not comfortable with short sleeves but did go with shorts. Only 59. MDT got to 65 or 66 so no clean records/no records today.

I am about to head out and am wearing long sleeves just to be comfortable.

I know better than to wisecrack with ITT and rain totals. He will bring the boom.

I just checked two local Wunderground reports, and one was .27 and the other .42 so quite the difference in a small area. If you saw my "Only .9 comment" before I just fixed it, you should have scolded me for saying only in reply to ITT who really only had .17. LOL

Typo, sorry. I did have the Only in there but meant to say .29. Just corrected. I am surprised someone did not ding more for over estimating.
