Stormpc Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Had .10 total. Funny thing, I was at the edge of a heavy shower. I saw it pouring across the street and in my cul de sac but it never made it to my house. 80 feet or so. Unreal. I was watching from my window the ponding some of my neighbors enjoyed. I had crumbs. They had the cake. I told my wife it was a cruel joke. She called me a loser. I retreated to the basement and drank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Another thundershower yesterday afternoon, 4th day in a row. Missed the super heavy soakers in area, but still up to 2.80 for the month. A yucky 72.2/68.4 outside now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the sun is trying to come out right now. Hopefully that destabilizes things. Mostly perennials that can take a little dryness. Hope the breaks of sun can stir things up a bit later.

Jebman Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Go figure. Yesterday the mountains got to enjoy a decent waterboarding. Today, the focus is EAST. I never win for losing, every day of this miserable HOT climate changed summer! Every day I cry as I watch the untimely demise of my poor lawn. The drought is so horrific that by early August the astronauts will be able to see a big brown spot in north Virginia and they will say, "That's Jebman's backyard. No rain at all for weeks and weeks along with record breaking heat and high dewpoints. All the instability on the planet and he gets 43 small raindrops." I HATE the Midwest and North Plains. EVERY SINGLE FRACKIN' DAY they have this big slow moving heavy rain band that rains and rains and rains for hours and hours and hours. I hope they FLOOD, FLOOD, FLOOD!!! Damned RAIN HOGGERS! Let'em DROWN in all of their hogged rain! Let em enjoy the flooded streams as they are swept down, banging on the car windows then glub, Glub, GLUB!

Leave in to Jeb to make a (yet another) miserably hot summer drought enjoyable. Well done. Meanwhile, yet another cloudy night to keep the heat high, only to see the full sun break out during the day to scorch the earth. It is God-awful nasty outside. It's not this humid under water, yet we can't manage to even get a single ****ing cloud to drift in front of that sun, much less a damn thunderstorm. Where else on earth can it be 90 / 72 for ****ing weeks on end and can't manage one ****ing thunderstorm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 It's like clockwork here. Guidance hammering wet pattern but we somehow manage to verify dry. I'm surprised DCA didn't pop a 90 today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87storms Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 pretty impressive forecast busts the last few days. good chance of rain each day and just a few raindrops here. forecasting is a challenge all year round, not just winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoast NPZ Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 .25" since May 26. 22 days, I've seen this before. Infact, I've seen it every summer I've lived here except 2011. I've had twice as many 90F days as I've had tenths of inches of rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrinceFrederickWx Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 We do this every year now IMBY- weeks of clouds, drizzle and 60 followed by a drought/blowtorch the following months. It's why I just do regular waterings and completely disregard the 80% chances of rain LWX throws out there. When we lock into this pattern it just won't rain. Next up will be getting 5" of drought-busting rain in about an hour sometime in late Sept. or early Oct. That happens every year too now lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, yet again tonight, ANOTHER nice rainband is imparting more cool life giving rain to the Midwest! For hours and hours, just like the Midwest gets to enjoy nearly every night!! https://radar.weather.gov/Conus/full.php Just like last night! By now, the Mid Atlantic should have had at least one good soaker, statistically speaking lol Can we PLEASE have just ONE of those big bands to rain on us parched Mid Atlantic denizens? Please? STOP HOGGING ALL THE RAIN, Midwest!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Here it is, going on 4am in the East --- and wouldnt you know it --- The Midwest is getting rained to death AGAIN, at least the 2nd night in a row. https://radar.weather.gov/Conus/full.php The place to be this summer for rain is The Midwest. This could turn into a 1993 redux. I got three words for these rain hogs. blub, Blub, BLUB! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlizzardNole Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Holding out for some decent rain tomorrow - best outcome would be a thick, solid line so everyone gets some. Man I wish we could have this coming Wednesday's low 80s and humidity for our big family get-together today. Working the grill this afternoon is gonna be HOT! OT but have you checked out the heat wave in the southwest?! Possibly 120 in Phoenix this coming week. I looked at their humidity to see how low it gets - Thursday afternoon, they had a temp of 102 and a dewpoint of -5!! How the heck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death Valley NP and Salton Sea NP have been posting some interesting stuff on their social media accounts about how the local wildlife handles this big heat. Wonder if this eventually builds east over the summer and we get a piece of the action in July or August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoast NPZ Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 LOL. Today was the worst yet. I literally have not seen so much as a cloud since about 2 PM. The sky could not be any clearer here. It also could not be any nastier outside. Everyday, the humidity gets worse and worse, and the skies get clearer and clearer, and the plant life gets browner and browner. .25" now in the last 23 days.

MN Transplant Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Can't quantify this without a deeper dive, but probably a top-20 all time warm June morning at DCA. No obs below 80 yet. Low of 76.4 at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlizzardNole Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 The line in WV looks good -- we desperately need 1 inch plus out of this. Many places will, but there will some spots that get screwed. How confident are you at reaching 1" at your location? I'll say 30%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
