.25-.50 total rain till tomorrow night The carpet and tile guys might be on to something. Nws dropped there amounts too.

I guess I better get to the mowing.

I guess I read your post wrong. I don't know what the shagged carpet, tile guys are looking at.

So carpet and tile guys for the win?

I went through Pillow this afternoon, your in luck there is a 2 story house for sale by owner. Pillow would welcome drought stricken people like you to their community.

And that rain has him busy mowing.

53 this morning, this temp. will bring Blizzard of 93 out of hibernation. Who knows maybe he'll even post a snow map today

.47 from the wind driven thunderstorm at 1:30 am.

Picked up .20 from that.

.98 rain last night. Kudos to NWS for sticking to their game plan. On another note DT is mentioning 2 possible Derecho threats next week.

What are your thoughts on severe weather later today?

Wow it must be very dry down there. I guess I should count my blessings, with all the rain we had up here. I know one thing. I'm tired of weed wacking. I never weed walked so much as this summer since towards the end of June.

Grass is growing rapidly here. I mowed Friday, today doesn't look like I mowed.

Dewpoint here is 68

About what time tomorrow will the Rains be here? I got to plow my potatoes out with a tractor. I don't need them to get wet.

.20 rain from last nights storms.

Tomorrow:

58 this morning.

.09 here. The carpet and tile guys might be on the something. NWS took a big hit on their forecast, unless something happens later.

I guess we'll see the results when we total it all up.

Carpet and tile guys: Today’s rainfall has not been handled particularly well by model guidance. The timing has been all over the place as well as the amount. It appears as of this morning that much of today’s rainfall will come during the first half of today. Expect a dreary and damp start to this Thursday with rain and embedded thunder moving to the north of an area of low pressure. The warm front stays to our south, so while it will be humid, it won’t be that warm today. Highs will be in the mid-70s. Rainfall amounts are tricky to forecast but right around 0.25″ seems fair for most. The rain should exit our eastern counties by mid-afternoon and late-day clearing is expected. Tonight will be mostly clear and comfy with lows in the mid-60s. NWS:Rain and thunderstorms before 3pm, then rain likely and possibly a thunderstorm between 3pm and 4pm, then a chance of showers and thunderstorms after 4pm. Some of the storms could produce heavy rainfall. High near 72. Calm wind becoming west around 6 mph in the afternoon. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New rainfall amounts between three quarters and one inch possible. A big discrepancy... still.

Picked up .02 from the so called t storm.

Sky getting dark I hear thunder looks like I'm in for a thunderstorm.

The carpet and tile guys are going for a 1/4in total tomorrow. My NWS Has 1/2-3/4 for tomorrow. A big difference.
