Its a weather forum?? The reason I found it interesting is probably synonymous with the reason that we frequent this forum.

Jesus, you are like a conflict seeking missle.

Unfortunately, it emblematic of the collective decay of the cognition of society given the advent of social media....it is what it is, which isn't pretty.

You think people would catch on eventually, after continual busts

.81" last night and 1.13 since Monday..my lawn takes. 

The dog is shook however

My new pup isn't bothered in the least, the opposite of my last dog that would dive under my desk with the first rumble.

I doubt 90% of his following is engaged or meticulous enough to note that 5" verified instead of his forecast for 9"....or that one week from tomorrow ended up 83 instead of the advertised 71....so its self perpetuating ignorance that fuels that following, is my guess. That's the social media monster continuing to feed itself.

Another heavy rain signal somewhere in SNE tomorrow.

I bet the segment of the population that takes the time to actually sit in front of the televison and consider folks like, @CT Rain appointment viewing is probably at least a bit more engaged and more mindful/knowledgeable hobbyists than the one that largely follows these social media goons. This is why there is probably a higher standard for accuracy for OCMs.

I'm not seeking conflict...I asked why it was "interesting? lol..to me summer is a totally boring season..

Agreed...but I did think it was cool for my gage to have nothing in it when you had a downpour...even during the summer, our weather is usally pretty similar.

I'm wondering if the focus tomorrow will be across the higher terrain.

I'm flying BDL --> PBI in the morning so hoping to get some Florida style storms in the afternoon. I'll be at Del Rae Beach

That’s a great descriptor.   I will need to use it

eh....as I mentioned it is the nature of summer showers....rains in 1 spot and a nearby location doesn't get a drop..there are times I've seen it pouring a short distance from my home and when I arrive home there has not been a drop..

We got a new pup a couple of weeks ago. We were warned she was afraid of fireworks, but not thunder. We haven’t had much thunder but so far neither has bothered her.

I find it interesting that there can be such a severe cutoff. One place gets an inch and just a short distance away it is bone dry.  It happens a lot, but so different than during other seasons

Yea, I know it happens, but its still eyebrow raising for me....even in winter it can happen. I was floored in Dec 2003 when I had like 11", and I drove like 5 miles southeast and there was over 2'...was nuts and infuriating. I also remember a hell of a hail storm driviing through Reading, MA when I was a kid, and then we got home in Wilmington, just over the line, and hardly a trace.

Dec 2003?

 

That cutoff happened here earlier last night. I got a few fat drops and a mile away like .7". I swear you could hear it raining to my NW. 

Or, how about a snow gradient in your own neighborhood like on 12/20 last year? LOL. It wasn't just eyebrow raising...it was infuriating.

I guess some find it more interesting than others.  In my forum (nyc), there is a guy about 2.5-3 miles from me in my town, and sometimes our rain amounts are vastly different, once or twice by over 1". Even in winter, sometimes our amounts are different by an inch or two.

An inch or two of snowfall is basically noise...

If this is a piece of the arctic we’re really in trouble. Just rename Greenland as Gretaland.

Yeah, that is why I find it more "interesting" in the summer.  Varying by over an inch of rain within 3 miles fascinates me.  I remember the one time where the park is for baseball thinking 100% my sons games would be rained out since it was a deluge at my house, only to not get the cancelled call and going to the field and the dirt was dry.

Wear your 4th of July get-up. Likely have the row to yourself. Have fun!
