Got another 0.85" this afternoon for exactly 4.00" today.  6.76" two day total.

Apparently my whining about cells missing all month was noted.  Had 2.76" when I went to bed last night.  Then an additional 3.15" overnight for an event total of 5.91".  I declare uncle.

Finally getting some of the goods.  Have picked up 1.37" which is more than 7x what I had month-to-date combined.  Would love to have more tomorrow and Tuesday to stock up the soil before the big heat arrives.

Edit: Mother Nature appears to be trying to make up for all the cells that have veered to the north/east/south/west, split apart, or mysteriously died in the last two weeks: up to 2.42" and still coming down.

Precipitation appears to be underperforming today which is frustrating as I am stuck in 0.14" for the month.  Really want to get some soakings before the big heat starts next week.

It's maddening; rain swirling everywhere and NOTHING can hit us (besides .01" pity sprinkles).  Anything coming in this direct, veers of to the side, splits, or dies just as it gets to us.

Got a disappointing 0.10 yesterday.  Hoping for more over the next 5 days.

0.13" today for a workman like 1.28" for the week and a workman-like 4.37" for the month.  Got rain on 5 of 7 says this week but mostly just crumbs.

5/27     0.86"

5/28     0.02"

5/29     0.06"

5/30     0.21"

5/31     0.13"

Storms seem to be swirling around me in every direction, but none headed my way.

A workman-like 1.19" today; 1.63" for the week, 2.69" for the month.

Only 0.42" in the bucket today.  Hoping fr more tonight.

Finally got a decent hit: squeezed out 0.67 for 0.87 for the three-day.  If I had just been a few miles east would have been pounded twice today.  

It's not gonna happen for me today; there's an invisible wall over I-40 that shreds every cell as it goes north.  Better luck this week I guess.

The I-95 corridor has been shafted so far.  I have 0.19" today, only 0.01 yesterday.

Edit.  Some nice cells starting to wander in from the south but as of now it looks like they're going to be juuuuust to the east.

That's more frozen precip than some winter weather events around here!

0.69 Thursday/Friday.  2.93 for the week.  Grass looking much better.

Got down to 37.4.  I wonder why the underperformance.  I noticed some clouds int he sky this morning.  Did some unexpected cloud cover develop?

What's the over/under on the RDU offset tonight?  Will they get below 37?

2.24" here.  Much needed.

The line split right over my house   Got .09 from this mornings crumbs   Better than nothing.

Ended up with 1.72 for the event

Best rain of the day here so far.  1.11" in the bucket

Got 0.92 in a short period.

Nasty looking squall line on the way

I’m not really in the mood but it’s likely going to be cold and miserable from March 15-April 1 so we might as well root for a fluke snow event. Even if it’s unlikely and probably just ends up some messy event that lets us down. 

Aren't you going to be enjoying the frozen tundra of Northern Vermont during some of that time?
