July Discobs 2025

The only weather office along the entire eastern seaboard from New Hampshire to Florida without heat advisories/warnings is LWX. We’re used to suffering so our criteria is too high.

CoCoRaHS for July 3 to today shows widespread 7-9 plus inch amounts in southern MoCo and 4-6 inches around Gaithersburg, compared to 0.8 here.  What an incredible micro-climate desert this place is, and it's not just this year.  This is normal.  What a tough place to try to have a gardening hobby.

The last couple storms were definitely focused on eastern HoCo. Quick glance at some PWSs around the area suggests I was the jackzone.

CoCoRaHS confirms we were the jackpot. 1.85” at closest report.

I plan to head on down to the point lookout beach (right on the cheasapeak) today or tomorrow to get sunset and Milky Way pictures. Any Mets have thoughts on which day would offer a good sunset and clear sky at night?

Similar boat here and, frankly, maybe more of a micro because I’m right up against Gambrill State Park/Watershed. Grass is not just a tint of brown, but legitimately getting brown.

It's usually the same "have nots" year after year.  Geographic influences are real, and a bitch.

If you haven’t decided yet, today looks okay for a clear night sky, at least according to the HRDPS which is apparently a decent model for cloud cover which I’ve heard in space weather groups. Satellite also seems good at the moment. Good luck stargazing.

This QPF forecast doesnt seem to align at all with current model guidance. Overly generous. I guess we shall see.

Last 4-5 runs of the euro are a north trend for Thursday that would have us in agony in winter lol
