Happy Birthday! You're a day behind me (although I'm 1000% sure I've got you on the age thing)

Yep, starting to worry a bit about the 'maters here too. Hoping for a few drier days. On a side note, this HAS to be the best my grass has looked in 20 plus years for this time of summer.

Ended up with 1.55" here. Not a record, that belongs to 1980's 1.75". Muggy/humid with patchy fog here this am. 66.7/66.1

Just went under Flash Flood Warning here. I've had 1.10 inches in last 50 minutes and 1.25 since 7 am. Several rounds still to pass thru looking at radar.

Pouring here for about 5 minutes, about .15 in gauge from eyeballing from window. Still a light rain falling. Temp down to 78.5/73.3 from 85.2 high around 20 minutes ago.

NHL for sure, even if it did just end lol!

Oh look, still fogged in on that sat pic (and it was). But now partly cloudy and the steam bath has returned. Currently 81.0/73.1 at 10:45 am with hazy partly cloudy skies. HI 86.0. Still 10 trillion percent better than the 97/98 degree days with 75 to 77 DP's we had for a few days in north-central MO!

Back from traversing the USA, time to put the numbers in for June 2025 Averaged high was 82.9 degrees vs a normal of 80.3 degrees, a +2.6 degrees above average. The warmest day was the 24th with a 91.5 degree reading. Averaged low was 59.8 degrees vs a normal of 57.3 degrees, a +2.5 degrees above average. The coolest temp recorded was 40.2 degrees on the 2nd. Overall averaged temp was 71.4 degrees vs a normal of 68.8 degrees, a +2.6 degrees above average. Total rainfall was 2.93 inches vs a normal of 4.20 inches, -1.27 inches below average. The wettest day was the 28th with 0.68 inches falling. There were 14 days with measurable, 4 days with a 'T' and 12 dry days. Highest wind recorded was 37 mph on the 1st. One new record, a 'warm minimum', set on the 25th. A cool start to the month turned warm and humid by mid-month and stayed there, fairly dry for June. A special thanks to the house/cat-sitter for keeping up with numbers while we were gone!

Headed out of town, July 2025 picks DCA: +1.1 NYC: +2.1 BOS: +2.5 ORD: +1.9 ATL: +0.7 IAH: +0.7 DEN: +1.2 PHX: +1.6 SEA: +2.7

Well, managed to get....nothing, lol. I'll take that back, it rained enough to get things damp then stopped. Stormed swung east of us, we did get a good bit of thunder and lightning and a few 20-25 mph gusts that helped cool us off to 79.6/71.1 currently.

Just upped to a warning here, I can hear thunder.

Just went under a special weather statement for the storm north of here for pea sized hail and 40 mph winds. Storm headed this way.

Storms popping up all around here. Big stuff down on VA/NC border is warned as well as one west of the Saharan Desert near Stephens City.

Set a new 'warm minimum' with 69.2 degrees, old mark was 67 degrees from 1988. Currently 70.7/68.0 with haze and patchy fog at 8 am.

High was 90.9 degrees, about 1/2 degree lower than yesterday. Had a few pop-up showers around the area late this afternoon, but nothing fell here. Currently 82.5/71.3 at 8:15 pm.
