I feel like Even Stephen ... Monday evening, those storms were supposed to fizzle before reaching us. But I got a pretty decent t-storm out of them. Last night the forecast called for rain, possibly locally heavy. I got nada. We'll see what the weekend brings, but really don't know what to think (expect) at this point.

Only got to 88F yesterday and dipped down to 68F for an overnight low. Should hit 90F today, but no "official heatwave" for my backyard.

Seems to follow AccuWx summer outlook for us. There will be bouts of heat, but not the long lasting variety. Let's hope so!

Saw my first lightning bugs of the season last night. I'm sure this upcoming surge of heat will draw them out in force.

48F this morning, don't think I'll see that again until Oct.

Flash flood watches are up. If the 6Z NAM is correct, I got 4" of rain on the way. Hopefully that's just the NAM doing it's usual thing.

^ Got hit pretty good by that one -- big limb down in the front yard. I'd say winds gusted to 45mph. P.S. Anyone else have trouble accessing the site? I've been getting "error" messages since Sunday.

73F at midnight, now down to 61F. A light shower rolled through around daybreak, but that's about all.

Storm passing just to my east but I am picking up some rain drops from it. Looks like my high will be 83F for the day, now down to 80F.

HRRR says it should be raining over me right now. Currently full sun, 82F/68DP.

I'm just glad it's not winter, on Thursday Glenn said I was getting 3-5 feet of snow! Clouds starting to build, 80F/70DP.

Rain stayed to my south last night, as well. Currently bright sunshine, 72F/66DP.

I don't follow the models as closely this time of year as I do in the winter, but I think yesterday's 12Z Euro had the heavier rains over our region. This morning's 0Z run went south, more inline with the other guidance. Let's see if today's 12Z holds serve. But yes, someone under a slow moving t-storm could still see impressive totals, just not the widespread flood threat. 80F/71DP ... disgusting!

I can tell it's not a snow map cause I'm in the bullseye. Seriously, cut that 3"-6" in half and that's still more rain than we need around here.

86F/68DP Yep, I caved! AC is on. I do like to run it once early in the season to make sure it's running fine. Nothing like turning it on for the first time when the heat settles in for good -- everyone calls at once for service and you're at the bottom of the list
