Finally, a dusting. Nice to wake up to falling white precip for the first time this year.

Did not have "spring-type thunderstorm knocking out power to my hotel in November" on my bingo card. Whelp... Flashy-flash! Thunderboom! Aaaand there goes the power. I'm in Newark, DE for work, and it's 11/20. But hey, at least it's freaking RAINING, finally??? So I guess we've all got that going for us, which is nice.

1" of rain since early August. Loving the cooler weather (finally) but cheese and rice will it please just rain again. Getting pretty depressed continually not seeing even a hint of rain in the ten-day forecast. WTF is even going on.

.01" for the night. What a lovely time watching all of these storms blow up all around me. Looks like I'll be watering the garden again tomorrow. What a joke the forecast turned out to be this weekend. Hope somebody cashed in at least. It wasn't us.

I went outside just now to bring the trash can back in and whoof! The smoke is back... I could sense it in my lungs for a full ten minutes after spending just a minute or two outside. It appears we have a new season. Smoke season. I am not a fan.
-
Can confirm, we got 1.21" in a very short span of time. It even managed to flood out parts of Rt 12 near me. I was pissed. I left a box of small fireworks outside to play with while I was grilling, and then we went inside to play pictionary and I forgot all about it. Completely ruined. I just hope my smoker is ok once it dries out because I was letting it cool down before I put the cover back on. Oh well.

.01" here for the day, partly sunny now. Kinda meh but hearing lots of thunder in the distance.
-
My PWS says it's 95 out, and I was all, "that can't be right, can it?" Well here's the local weather station: We went outside to put some bird netting over our berry bushes and were pretty much instantly drenched. SO GLAD I moved all of that mulch yesterday!!!
-
.89" for the night. I think we're past it now, not bad.
-
Ooh, getting that familiar distant rolling thunder right now. This is gonna be spicy. I'm here for it!
-
.55" here. Looks like some heavy thunder boomers might make it to us in an hour or so.
-
It's nice to have a non-apocalyptic, regular summertime thunderstorm for a change. Moderate to heavy rain, occasional, far-off thunder booms and very little wind, even with the gust front. My garden will love this.
-
I don't like the look of that cell SW of Carlisle:
-
Just moved ~5 yards of mulch to the back garden. I am beat. And also drenched, but hey, at least the sun wasn't out! Had to do it today or it would have probably sat there until October the way this year is going... Blech:
-
Just don't want a repeat of this is all (precip):
-
Dude it was so windy here yesterday that my flag somehow came loose from the holder on my front door frame and FLEW OVER my house, pole and all, landing in the back yard.
-
Currently 90 at my house, which is weirdly comfortable after last week. I mean, it IS pretty dry out, so there's that. The whole "yeah, but it's a dry heat" thing in full effect. Grass is hella crispy though. It'll be fiiiine
-
LOL@ the forecast today. The wind was supposed to taper off by noon, then it was 3pm, then it was 5pm... It's still hella windy. So much so that my flag on the FRONT of my house just BLEW OVER MY HOUSE and landed in the back yard. Pole and everything. Nice day otherwise. I was kinda hoping to grill some burgers tonight but my grill will absolutely not stay lit in this wind. Oh well.
-
Jeez Louise, that was one heck of a week.
-
Nothing. No rain. A couple of drops. 7 consecutive days far above 90°. In June. It's 80°F now at 2am. I sure hope this is an anomaly, something we can all look back at and go "heh, that was weird, right?" Wonder what it's like up there in East Nantmeal. No, wait, no I don't.
-
My high today was almost 104, but apparently I got that backyard heat island thing going. There were plenty of other 100+ readings around me throughout the day though, and it sure felt like it.
-
Finally some relief. Had a brief shower (non-measurable in the gauge) and now it's down to 82. Thank goodness.
-
Tiny little blip of rain to my NW. Looks like it's juuuust going to miss us, but hopefully we'll have a little bit of cloud cover for a bit.
