Yep, we can’t get a weekend with both days having nice weather of late.  Have to enjoy Saturday before it goes to hell again. 

WE will see-alot of these wet solutions have busted outside of Memorial day weekend disaster.

Last 12 month precip here was 33.03". That's a good 15" below normal.

The last two years have been very dry across much of the CONUS. It will be interesting to see how things go with the developing super El Niño.

The current pattern has been alternating between surges of Niña-like warmth and cooler El Niño-like intervals from the spring into early summer so far.  But we have still been averaging out warmer than is typical this time of year for such a strong developing El Niño.

So not sure if the precipitation will fully shift into a more Nino-like wet pattern or we still hold onto some reflection this Niña-like drought pattern. Ridges have been significantly stronger than usual across much of North America in recent years. So the more expansive high pressure has tended to really dry things out.

It's not the wet, it's the temps too.

only thing growing on my lawn that is exposed to the sunlight is weeds - ground is dry as a bone here in central NJ and after the hot sunny temps this week the weeds will stop growing too....

Dries out fast this time of year with peak sun angle.

Yeah we really need the rain. I hope Sunday works out, even though it would be bad timing with the rain being on a weekend day. Before then a lot of watering will be needed this week.

Sunday looking wet now

I think the difference between this rain threat coming up for Sunday and the Memorial Day weekend event is that the Memorial Day weekend event brought meaningful rain.  The potential rainfall this coming Sunday will be more meaningless but just enough to F up a weekend day.  Looks like 1/2" or less for most spots based on the more reliable model guidance.  We'll see how it plays out but it does not look overly wet IMO.

Yeah we'll see as we get closer but a total washout seems unlikely

Surprised it wasn't.  Granted it was only a CAT 1 but it caused 5 billion in damage in a heavily populated area.

Idalia (in 2023) should have been retired as well. I guess there must be a shortage of I names that they need to keep them in there unless there is a truly historic storm.
