Just mowed my lawn for the first time this season.

For reference, my typical first cut is around May 1st.

Funny, I just got done with my first cut as well. Hit 82 today. The highest it got summer of '23 was 85.8. Back to reality tomorrow but the 6-10 and 8-14 shows us all roasty toasty. Might be shaping up to be a long summer.

WB 0Z HRRR.  Rain moves in by 8 am Sunday east of mountains.  Clears west to east starting in the early afternoon.  Bad timing but the rain is needed. Potomac already looks low up my way....temps falling back into the lower 50s by sunset.

Hot. Bees mating, skinks sunning on my steps, and the first black rate snake sighting of the year. June is off to a nice start!

Same here on all 3- saw a big black snake slithering across the grass near the firepit. Looked like around 6 ft.

Beautiful morning w the breeze ahead of the front. Low was in the 50s but temps spiked during the 6am hour and now hitting 70.

Nice little downpour rolling thru. Been chipping away at the drought here the last month or so.

Nice bit of rain. Went out when it was light and threw some grass seed down. Using this wet day also to finish a DIY project.

Heavy rain

Think this was a precip overperformer. Might have had >0.5”. Sun is now starting to break out a little. Still not looking forward to Tuesday’s temps…meh lol…though looks like a trend upwards thereafter.

Exactly a half inch here too, and still a steady light to moderate rain falling. Should end in the next hour. Much needed.

0.58"

Most moisture here since the snow melted into the soil.

It was a good rain here as well. It rained really hard when that line came through. Heaviest precip I've seen since being under those extreme LES band on the Tug back in January.
