Make the rain stop.  If we have to do this showery downpour crap all weekend… not a fan.

Wish we were there.

Winter-like NW flow cyclonic pattern at the solstice.  Doesn’t get much shittier.

How much is Jay Peak reporting today?

Wait what?!

3-5” around here.

I wish lol. We’ve gotten multiple rounds of 2-3” rainstorms. And I had to deal with beavers damming a stream behind my property so that about 20 acres of my property ended up flooded for days - fortunately not the section that the houses are on! Fun times. I’ll take some drought now…

This is what you guys do. I don’t know how people vacation there.

That’s crazy, must’ve been localized.  Looked on Cocorahs and most stations seemed similar 3-5” this month.  Can’t imagine being at 8”+ lol.

Now see those Bretton Woods stations at 7-9”, that’s wild.  Beavers or not, that’s gotta be near flash flood in some of those inches.

Its ridiculous. I can't even bring the dog to his favorite swimming hole. The river is running so high the beach and the swimming hole are gone and the water is almost up to the top of the bank

18z euro looks good. Let’s get another 7/29/2021 up here

Meh even a marginal risk can do  that. There was like zero lightning. As we thought.

You know, this is a New England forum, so all wx in the region is relevant.  Maybe we should start a forum called:

"5 SM Radius Weymouth - ACATT"

Euro looks like a widespread soaker overall. Probably going to be a hellacious band near low center and along WF.

But if Weymouth does not get the absolute max pcpn for the event in SNE, it will be "MEH!"

Yeah, I’ll be honest, when I looked at Cocorahs last night, it didn’t have yesterday’s rainfall added in.  I hadn’t looked yet today but I’m sure another 1-2” was added everywhere up north.

Up at Mansfield, our Mtn Operations station showed 3.03” from this recent “event.”

Speaking to a observer in Madison NH, he has had 14.79" since 5/1.  CoastalWx: "Why can't we get than here?!"

Because when it’s nice it’s really nice. Also they do snow and severe better than us

And while the rain sucks, the mountains do look really pretty with the rain

Fortunately it’s been just below the threshold for flooding for us, although it’s been enough to take out of the the riverside trails on my property. But could have been much worse

[powderfreak]

Another 0.5-1.0” around the area today. 

0.78” here.

Looks like the I-89 corridor south of here saw the more consistent 1” totals.

The heavier initial convergence band has slinked south, but there’s moisture stacked to Hudson Bay that’s going to be advected south into the NW slopes of the Appalachian chain all weekend.  Can’t catch a break on these weekends.

Best I can tell, the 3 spinners in VT this year so far is the most the state has had in a year on record, at least since 1975. 

Due to over-reporting after the 1953 ORH spinner through 1974 and the concept of a microburst not realized until the early 70s, I would not consider records before 1975 reliable.  Of course, it wasn't until the mid 90s when we really started to detect and document much better what actually occurred for tors given the installation of WSR-88Ds and the NWS MAR.

WxWiz be like be"MEH!"  LOL.

I have to say, I might be a bit biased after having my first fall and winter up there. Spring was rough--SLK was a ghost town in April--but my goodness it's wonderful up there. Just need to get a good squall line day up my way to complete it.

Some folks in the Mid-Atlantic region used to organize a Midwest chasecation years ago. It'd be a hoot to have the regulars here crammed in a SUV driving through Kansas.
