Up to 1.09 rain today. Got soaked twice while removing pump from creek bank.

Shame not everyone is getting this rain. Maybe yours and everyone else's is coming later today. No watering the garden this week. Now I just hope our area don't get too much of a good thing in a short amount of time. I'm gonna keep an eye on the creek I might have to pull the pump away from the creek, as this creek responds to heavy rainfall fairly quickly.

picked up .71 from the shower that just went through and 1.19 so far this week.

I was gonna say what happened to the rain overnight...but its here now and coming down good. So far have .12 in less then half hour.

.44 rain from the first batch today. No wind here.

I guess he's our go to guy on college and pro football this coming fall season. Nice to get a heads-up before the season starts. I wonder if he will reveal the conference champions of each conference in college football before the season starts?

NWS mentions this so where ever there is training this could happen once we get into a soupier humid airmass: Expect several rounds of rain and drizzle with a chance of afternoon thunderstorms Saturday and Sunday afternoon that could lead to minor flooding of poor drainage areas and a few small streams in some locations, mainly over the Southern and Eastern portions of the state.

.37 from the rain overnight.

Haven't we seen this scenario before, not that long ago. A few years ago. That time they had some bad flooding in the summer. I remember Eastern Dauphin County, parts of Lebanon and Schuylkill County. If I remember right it was from training thunderstorms.

As long as we don't get downpours training over the same area for a few hours...we should be fine. But I think some place will.

The carpet and tile guys aren't really enthused over the upcoming rain. Half inch average till end of week.

Yes if it's spread out over a course of days. But if some areas get training of heavy showers or thunderstorms then it's a different ballgame. Trying to stay optimistic at this point. It's my garden that worries me. The Mahantango Creek has to reach 6 ft and the risk of my garden going underwater increases dramatically.

We don't need flooding. We'll it happened before from drought to flooding in just a few days.

I'm wondering too, This upcoming weather situation A certain meteorologist says this has flooding written all over it. Even here in Pa.I hope not.

Just mowed Thursday , grass is growing and will need another this week.

Ended up with .40 rain yesterday.

Picked up .27 today for the week so far 1.76 for the month 2.20.

The carpet and tile guys mentioned this morning we might have to deal with wildfire smoke next week.

So I guess I better stock up on gas to pump water for the garden. I was hoping that the dryness was going to be a memory next week.

Don't know if this will happen...thoughts?

Was 48 here . This might turnout to be a summer without the heat.

.22 rain today.

Since you failed to keep count of your mows, Isn't that an automatic disqualification from receiving that coveted lawn trophy at the end of the season? Don't worry I'm not in contention either. I failed miserably too.

Too bad not everyone got to share on Mondays beneficial rainfall. The grass here is showing signs of starting to turn green again. My garden is looking better. Best part I don't need to pump water to the garden for 6 hrs. every 3 days. And the farmers got a nice rainfall too.
