Nice setup for a soaking rain mid to late week across the region.

 

 

WPC noted changes with placement of the low. Noteable reduction of rainfall with latest forecast. Still early though

Oh! We don't have a site lined up out there just yet. When we do I will DM you. We've got a number of locations in the permitting and logistics pipeline, hoping to get them going this summer.

Canadian air masses continue into early June.  Zero signs of any real heat.

If you are looking for another site in Talbot county, the school where I work might be a possibility. Located west of Easton along the Miles River on the way to St Michaels.

Well I for one have been enjoying this Spring--it is one of the best one's we've had in awhile. Not too hot...cool but not annoyingly raw...it has been absolutely beautiful weather mixed with some much-needed rain. Can't ask for much better! This weather earns a:

This would be very acceptable. A soaking rain that's not too light or too heavy would do wonders for vegetation. We've really greened up over a lot of the region due to the past few weeks. This would help further. 

Additional periods to monitor will be Tue/Wed next week and next weekend for more rain. We need to take every drop we can before the summer sets in.

My wag from a couple weeks ago was that we needed about 200% of normal rain for May and June to prevent a dust bowl summer. Seems well on the way to do that for May at least.
