I had 1.78 spread out over 3 days. My wettest single day was only .76. The last 1.02” in a day was way back on May 5th. 3-23-24 was my last 2.92” in one day. 

This was my 5th driest summer at only 4.99”. It was also my 4th warmest summer here. So all the vegetation and grass was on the brown side. 

But July 99 back on the South Shore of LI still holds the record for the brownest vegetation that I have seen. Nearly all the lawns and the parkways were completely brown.

1999 and 2002 were two of my favorite summers, I don't mind yellow or brown grass, it feels nice and crunchy :)

How does this summer compare for dryness to 2010 where you are Chris??

This summer was much drier in New England than 2010 was leading to the record low streamflows that some areas are experiencing.

Are we more sensitive to drought now than we were in the 1980s? I feel like the kind of rainfall we are experiencing right now is similar to what we had back then but it's being taken more seriously now?

High dews too. Somehow I dont think this summer will truly end until mid October.

We’ll see if a piece of the over the top warm up in Canada near the end of September can build down into the Northeast in October.
