should finally all be rotated away tomorrow...but again, Friday - ooph

Couple winners,  Mom's day through next Tuesday ...then we'll see if that TV vortex that really shouldn't be there, goes on to stress physics in order to fuck with us and actually pulls it off.  lol

Kind of opens up and moves along so even if it did come by...I don't think it's a multi day screw job.

Absolutely. Not that I enjoy them but I'll take deer flies and mosquitoes over them any day. Black flies  like to chew on your face.

I certainly don't like black flies - some years ago I tripped in the woods north from Flagstaff Lake and cut my palm.  The little horrors thought "It's a buffet!" and landed by the dozen.  However, I despise deerflies even more, especially in the far north of Maine.  Imagine 50 of them swarming around, accompanied by 100+ similarly sized but non-biting "sweat lickers" on a hot day.  One cannot tell which of the little bombers carry knives, nor can one run fast enough to escape.  I've never been chased out of the woods by bugs, but that scenario has come the closest.

Sun!  (peeks only)

yeah, noticed that it's sped up some.  originally - like 6 days ago - that one plunked down in, phased, and retro'ed the whole of it to make it one big shitty choke fest for 5 days.  i was even dreading 2005 in a thought.    not the case any longer.

Btw ... we're entering the solar maximum.   for the next 92.change days we'll be doing caucasoid chromosomal damage controls ..

What a disaster on the Euro for Saturday in NNE.

[Damage In Tolland]

Looks better the further SE you go, more chance for breaks. Either way, the Rain is out of here by morning and temps in the low 60's by afternoon.

18z NAM is  Vermont and NH gone 

[ineedsnow]

we even get a rotting deform band... just the wrong season

North trends FTW. Congrats Freak to Dendy 

[CoastalWx]

Think there will be some convective elements near low center. 

[ineedsnow]

Looks like May will be a loss for big heat.

what there's no way your 5 day total was 1 to 2 

[dryslot]

Another line of showers moving thru here now, Saturday looks like ass once again.

2.45”  Exactly what was thought . A very meh event and only small area saw big amounts over 5-6”. Globals never resolve rainfall well . This will be another great example on Friday. Berks to Freak and Dendy will get 3-7” but most will end  up say 1-2.7”. E MA especially south of Boston could see under 1.5”
