Didn't get much, kind of shape shifted into about 0.05" of rain and some rumbles of thunder. Getting comfortable out now, 74F, dp 69.

Have a good trip! Got an additional 0.35" overnight here, for a storm total of 0.65".

Lol... So do you think that you can take it? (We're working backwards here). Still some light rain here, not much of a breeze.

Wound up losing a tree and a couple of large branches from the storm earlier. I found clusters of oak leaves 500 feet north from the closest oak tree. It was windy! Currently light rain and pretty comfortable out.

Sure, lol. It is raining lightly here now. Whatever we get it's one of those evenings with a cool looking sky and that calm before the storm feeling (in my mind anyway, haha). Eta, and a bit of a breeze picking up now to add to the effect : -).

What's with the carve-out around my neighborhood?

You probably spent a long time baking it, so yeah.

Yeah it was pretty intense. Started with some breezes and decent rain, then we heard a transformer blow, followed by the sound of roaring wind and small branches breaking. Got some thunder and lightning after that. Since we sit on the porch facing NNW and it came from the south, it was pretty wild hearing all the noise from behind the house as it approached. My brother had called me to discuss Elsa, so I gave him the play by play. Got 0.30" of rain, and it was pretty interesting, so I'm not feeling left out, lol. Plus the radar appears to be filling in a bit to the south.

The NAM and HRRR both show most of that staying north and west of here, and then the core of the storm consolidating and passing to the south and east of here. I'm hoping it doesn't pan out that way, a little tropical action would be nice.

Low here was 73, currently 78 with dp at 74. Looking forward to some rain later on!

Tomorrow night should be interesting at least.

We've had some nice cooldowns so far in between the hot spells, but we seem to be trending towards that pattern of a few days in the 90's with dps in the 70's, then a 2 day "cool down" with highs in the upper 80's with dps maybe in the upper 60's. Hopefully it won't persist into September like it did in 2016. That year we were doing some dirt and seeding out back (in September), and trying to keep the soil damp with temps in the low 90s. I have a couple of meat thermometers I got for checking soil temps, and after running the sprinkler long enough to wet the ground up in one (sunny) area, I checked the dirt temp and it was 101F. So much for seed germination, lol. Needless to say I had to reseed it when things cooled off a bit.

Made it to 93F here today, was 90 a little after 7 pm, but has dropped 2 degrees in about 15 minutes to the current 88F. DP 74.

Yeah we could see lightning and a good bit of it off to the NE , so looked at the radar, probably right around that time. That one just kind of popped up, and had another pop up right behind it. Good luck with your power!

Still at 92F here, the high for the day it appears, dp is a tasty 76.

Agreed. 71F here, tons of fireworks going off all over. The air is actually smoky, and none of our nextdoor neighbors are even setting any off. Pretty funny.

Getting ready to mow here, 78F, dp 64. Gorgeous day.

Just had one of those here, could hear the rain in the trees across the street before it got here. Added 0.10" in 5 minutes, day total up to 0.70".

Ok, for whatever reason I assumed you used your phone a lot. I haven't tried it on my desktop yet, maybe I'll wait, lol.

Yeah I wasn't concerned, just trying to be funny (haha). Good luck with your screen - is it only this forum? Android?

I did, posted about it up the page a bit. Came in strong considering how cool it is today. Mt. Holly mentioned 700mb temps at freezing, with some (small) hail possible, but didn't get any here.

Lol, I noticed that. I still feel the same. Congrats to us, I guess?

Yeah my mowing plans got shelved till tomorrow, looks like. Got 0.60" here in about 20 minutes, with decent breezes, thunder and lightning, and the temp knocked down to 66F.

Don't rub it in now. I see Birds is up to damn rookie already. What the heck.

Would be nice if you could turn the badge display off. I mean since we all know we all have badges of some sort we don't really need the badge there, do we? Mirror image of the eagle could work but that could be heretical, lol.
