Using my "I'm the boss" card this afternoon. The area of rain is building and looking good. I'm going to put my bathing suit on and go for a rainy hike. It's been so dry that it should feel great out there. 

I chose to take a rain swim, then head into DC for my activities. Got to see the reflection pool in person… lots of national guard people.

70/59 with a nice breeze and the sun returned. Measured 0.54" yesterday with 3.55" for the month so far. 

There is no drought west of the Alleghanies.  In addition to the lush foliage everywhere, was out on DCL twice last week and the lake appears full, even fuller than it was in the early spring.

You can see the effects of the drought clearly as close as Hancock, the landscape almost abruptly turns brown past Sideling Hill.

Yesterday was decent, but much less than forecast. Today was very underwhelming. 0.92" total.

Its a start, but need to keep it coming. Go dry for 3-4 days this time of year in an extreme drought and back to square one.

I frequently drive to Richmond and noticed the same thing. We've done fairly well in this overall pattern - certainly a change from the past 2 summers (at least so far) which were bone dry. Beautiful, crisp morning today with a low of 47 (34 at CNWR). Hope to get some more rain this weekend before we rev up next week.

From Mount Holly-

0656 PM     Tstm Wnd Dmg     1 SSE Wye Mills         38.93N 76.08W
06/22/2026                   Talbot             MD   NWS Storm Survey

Several thunderstorms crossed through the region on the evening of June 22, 2026. While there were multiple wind damage reports, the most intense path of damage was near Wye Mills to Cordova with a storm that crossed through near 7 PM. Damage was noted beginning along Old Wye Mills Road where multiple trees had been uprooted. A discontinuous path of damage continued towards the southeast. Along Newtown Road, multiple trees were snapped, with an estimated maximum wind speed of 90 to 100 mph, the highest estimated wind speed along the entire path. Near Saulsbury, a center pivot irrigation system was overturned. Damage path continued with additional damage, primarily tree damage, reported along Blades Road and Asches Acres Road.

 

I saw some sporadic tree damage driving through that area yesterday morning headed to work. Most of the major damage was just to the west/NW .
