Raining again here, started about 10 minutes ago and looks like about an hour or maybe more from radar view. 73.7/70.9

Although the DP still in upper 60's, what a wonderful relief with the W/NW 10-20 mph breezes. Hit 84.8 earlier this afternoon, currently 81.7/68.3 with mostly cloudy skies.

JUST missed a 'warm minimum' for the date. 68.7 low, record is 69 from 1986. Currently 71.1/68.9 at 8:10 am.

The previously mentioned line from Harrisonburg to Beckley is pushing thru my area now, a quick .25 in 8 minutes. Still raining lightly with thunder and lightning starting to move away. Cooled us down to 73.1/71.9 right at 4 pm.

YUCK! Currently 83.6/74.1 with a HI of 91, but might as well be 111 with all the moisture in the air, slaps you in the face as soon as the door to outside is opened. A cloudy/foggy start, but the sun poked out between 11 and noon and allowed temp to hit 85.2 before cloudy to partly cloudy returned. I'm sandwiched between lines forming right now at 2 pm. Looks like a good solid line is forming from Harrisonburg back SW to Beckley and another broken line from SE of Lexington VA down into the NC mountains towards Boone, all headed E or ESE at the moment. Amazing difference in rainfall across my county in past 10 days. There are places over 12 inches (with almost 6" falling in 2 hours!) and some right at an inch, although Alleghany is not a huge county (but strangely shaped like the state of WV, which borders us). Keeping an eye on the sky, stay safe out there today folks!

Just back in, Happy Birthday @MillvilleWx! Had several rounds of showers and thundershowers. But, much like the past 7-9 days a small amount in the gauge for all the noise and light shows. I've had 2.14" fall since the 4th, but 1.55" of that happened on the 10th and only .32" in last seven days. My dad (in his low 80's) said today he couldn't remember a summer like this where it thundered and lightning for hours every day for over a week with so little to show for it from the sky.

The hits just keep coming, FFW upgraded to a dangerous situation, my phone even went off, which I have set for only PDS's and tornado warnings. Folks near creeks and river advised to seek higher ground?!? Estimated rainfall 4+ inches with heavy rain still falling.

FFW in NW and northern part of the county, now that same storm has gone severe, with a STW for NE part of the county. I'm missing it all by a mile at most, still hanging on to that 25 drop total and a couple 20-25 gusts blowing out of the storm.

NWS radio just went off for a flash flood warning. I've had approx 25 raindrops, but JUST to my west that storm has stalled and rained hard for over an hour with 50-70 dbz showing. Probably 3 or more inches has fell if I had to guess.

Well, we have the thunder again, 5th day, and again a few sprinkles. Looks like the storm is gonna go just west of us, amazingly EVERY storm on the radar is going ENE/NE except this one, going almost due N. IF it followed all the other storms it would hit here.

Yep, visited son in Park City earlier in the month. While it did get into the low to mid 80's (and upper 90's in SLC) most days the DP hung in the 50's, awesome. It even rained (monsoonal?) two afternoons we were there, first rain they had in 3 weeks, I was asked to stay longer for the moisture lol. Funny thing, I can't seem to get it to rain HERE in last week or two though.

Well, it upped itself, a goose egg on precip for the day. But the thunder only lasted about an hour.

Well, let's see how day four goes. Previous three I've had thunder and lightning for hours only to get a few sprinkles. The thunder restarted about 20 minutes ago. I think we were moved to the desert SW the last 4 days lol. Currently 83.1/73.3 with clouds and thunder after an 86.6 high about an hour ago.

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.
