No rain here since last evening. I guess the snook holds special powers to get rain.

Well, I am a water hauler, so maybe as snow begets snow, water begets water...lol

Rain continues - up to .2" at home for the day and .3" for the past 2 days. Should eek out several more hundredths of an inch.

I was thinking the same as I stare out the window here into the capital city.  There was a sharp cutoff just southeast of Harrisburg, which was actually modeled very well by the Meso's this morning.  I think I'm going to be up around a third of an inch back home.

Wunderground stations near you would support that, a lot of them around .3" give or take. Interestingly, the stations down here recorded a bit less despite being further south. I finished with .21" at home so your area was a nice little jack today.

Yep looks like a smidge over .3” in the gauge. I’ll take what I can get! Official reading in the morning.
