87storms Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 It seems we're capable of 3 days in a row of sunshine. Music to my ears. Also, doesn't look like it rained last night which I'm ok with because I left my sunroof open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any significant rain chances are probably a week away(which would be May 1st), when HP along the east coast breaks down and a front associated with LP tracking across the GLs gets closer.

Hopefully this isn’t a locked in pattern like last summer. I’d rather a return to humidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdhokie Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Are you all drought trolling or do we just have a lot of micro climates in the DMV? I've been digging in my yard and the soil is plenty moist. Digging out in Deep Creek too and my boots are caked with mud. We are well above normal both at BWI and Oakland. Granted the last couple days have been dry but to be honest we needed that around here to do any outdoor work. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m assuming there’s some dry pockets around the area, but overall I would imagine we have some room to spare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 3" here for April, but almost all of that fell the first 4 days of the month. Soil here is well drained, mostly silt and sand. This time of year it can get dry pretty quickly. Even though it was super wet with high water table a month ago, that rapidly changes with longer/warmer days and increase in transpiration underway, and enhanced by a dry spell. All that said, it would probably take another couple weeks of little to no rain to reach 'abnormally dry' category. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The soil moisture data at the Waldorf mesonet site perfectly illustrates this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ridgely site, which is closest to me, is drier. 10 cm = 0.071 wfv. It was 0.257 on April 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlizzardNole Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Whew Monday is looking hot - I bet we see a couple spots hit 92-94, and we probably don't reach 60 today LOL. Wish we could average it and get a week of 75 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
