Have a little rain falling now here, gladly will take.

They do that to have a uniform reporting network. It isn't much, 40 bucks including shipping I believe.

Yep.

Well, after 4 weeks of basically nothing, 1.26 inches fell here, with about 95% of that falling between 10 and 11 pm. Majority ran off, but least things are damp this morning, win. Oh, and that (1.26) is a new daily record, lol. Crazy stuff.

NOT A DROP, amazing. Radar had 30-40 dbZ pass over twice!!

Sitting here listening to the thunder and watching the line S L O W L Y back-build towards me.....will it???

Got scrapped by a storm here at 3 pm, rained for about 5-8 minutes, about 0.05 in gauge it appears. First measurable here since 7/18, that will be 26 days......

OUCH

Nada. Same as last 24 (or is it 25?) days.

'somewhere' lol

Ditto here!

Amazing, heard thunder again for about 30-45 minutes, not a drop here. I'm starting to think someone picked up my county and moved it out west to NM or AZ somewhere.... day 22 with a total of 40-50 raindrops max, 0.33 in last 30.

Dang, well, least you managed to NOT make a trip to urgent care or ER......

Oh, the headache beer! I (when I used to drink) could do anything and mix alcohol's all day, but throw ONE PBR in and I'd have the headache of the century the next morning for hours......

There, fixed that for you!

She's a beaut!

Super ouch!

Oh, look, one of those is mine.....

LOL, I just can't buy a rain shower here in the last month. Yesterday I had 75-90 minutes, yes over an hour of thunder and lightning, then about 15-20 raindrops fell on the deck.... watering yard continues.

Yep, done that a few times myself. Not any worse than say, Mt Evans road in Colorado or any other narrow pass (thinking of you Smugglers Notch) up and over a mountain.

Awesome!!

Drum roll please, the numbers for July 2021 my location... Averaged high was 85.3 degrees vs a normal of 84.7 degrees, a +0.6 above average. The warmest temp recorded was 89.7 degrees on the 28th. Averaged low was 61.7 degrees vs a normal of 61.5 degrees, a +0.2 degrees above average. The coolest temp recorded was 54.1 degrees on the 4th. Overall averaged temp was 73.5 degrees vs a normal of 73.1 degrees, a +0.4 above average. Total precip for the month was a measly 1.02 inches, which sets a new record minimum for the month of July, vs a normal of 4.01 inches, a -2.99 below average. There were 10 days with measurable, 2 days with a 'T' and 19 dry days. The greatest rainfall event was on the 2nd with 0.44 (almost half of monthly) falling. The highest wind recorded was 31 mph on the 9th. Only record for month is the dry 1.02" of rainfall, beating previous record of 1.76" from 1998 by a good bit. Overall a very average month temp wise, powerfully dry (especially last 20 days) on the water side. Records date back to October 1979.

You sure that wasn't a rogue spritz or sprinkle from the hose/sprinkler system?

Silly, silly me. I thought 20-25 dbZ over me for an hour or so would bring a bit of rain....nope, it did spot the deck and windshields, about it. I DID get to report a T this morning vs all the 0.00's last 2 weeks. Amazing.
