0.13", but at least I (barely) crossed the 1" mark for April.  Hope Wednesday delivers.

After some MUCH welcomed rain lol, wife and I caught a pretty sick sunset last night.

It's weird because I don't remember the weather being like this where we basically get 3 nice days per week.  Maybe I just notice it more as I get older because my hobbies have changed and I simply crave (or need via Vitamin D) more sunshine.  I still like storms, but I much prefer when it's a t-storm surrounded by generally nice weather as opposed to this nickel and dime stuff.

0.19” this afternoon. Will take it. 

Thought we received a little more than that, but then again it was mostly short duration showers.

.47" yesterday.  Thank God.   Washed away some of the accumulated pollen.

This weather is awful!  Breezy, dark, stuck in the 40s, and a measly 0.02 of "rainfall." I got excited when the forecast had a half to three quarters of rain for overnight Saturday.

A wedge of dry air from high pressure east of Maine, discouraged convective activity.

I consider myself lucky with .35".

Getting more peaks of sun here than I expected.  Looking forward to the days when we start getting clouds out of the south instead of the north lol.

Leaving UVA for the semester next Friday and I'm pissed now that I've realized I won't get a single shot of a shelf cloud over grounds. There hasn't even been a single opportunity! Seriously, our severe weather game this year seems unusually weak.  

I never considered early spring to be good for severe weather here.

I have several shelf cloud shots taken from my driveway looking just to the west over the years. Late Spring through Summer is the time.

I feel like we tend to get at least a couple days with storms in April even if our bread and butter months is mid May through July. We had March 15th this year and then just nothing.

Wth when did we become the armpit of the weather world?  Was 56F and breaks in cloud cover when I left the cabin...now down here in Calvert it's 51F and solid gray.  Gross breeze too.

Skies cleared here for a while late afternoon with the clearing line moving from E to W for a change.

Sure does. Sat outside for 7 hours watching my kids softball games. Cold, windy, damp. Had some sun for like 45 mins then it disappeared and it got cold again haha. 

On the plus side they won the tournament. I'm sure I will be complaining about sitting in 95 degree humid trash air in a month though!

[nj2va]

A -10/100 kind of day, just gross.

You may have gotten more up your way. When I looked at radar NE of me looked to have a bit heavier and wider swath of rain than down here.

Pollen seems to be peaking again.
