Time to work on elevating the water table heading into fall.

I saw PWM had it’s 3rd driest September on record...only missing the record from 1948 by like .13”.  

Thats crazy, they had under 1/2” of rain the entire month of September...I had no idea it was that dry.  We had 4-5” generally in the northern third of VT.  Hard to believe PWM downstream couldn’t muster more than like .45”.

There were a few heavy West to East rain events but they must’ve gone north of PWM.

1.31" here.

Gene had posted this one in the NNE thread, PWM sticks out like a sore thumb

I don't know if that's ground based (like CoCoRAHS and COOPs) or radar derived, but that map looks pretty darn accurate, if a little under-done up this way.

Local stations were just around 4" here and 5-6" a couple miles west into the Spine axis (J.Spin for example). 

Can certainly see the orographic enhancement there in the Adirondacks, Greens and Whites.

Have that here too. 

It happens in convection season.  Think of the PWM total and then you think, how easy is it to get a quick half inch of rain from a cluster of T-storms?  Just unlucky and there were several slugs of convection and synoptic forcing moving through just 25-50 miles to the northwest of PWM throughout the month. 

That gradient from like 1" to 3" is pretty sharp overall.  Have and have nots.
