MANDA Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Total for yesterday 3.10". Two rounds. Early morning 1.72" in about 45 minutes. Second round with tornado warned storm early afternoon dropped 1.37" in about 15 minutes. Finished with .01" during the evening in a quick moving light shower. I'm good with rain for a while. Need some time for the ground to dry out. No need to water here anytime soon. Everything is as green as it could possibly be. @bluewave posted above the next big ridge looks to be centered more west over the western plains or Rockies. Watch for weak downstream trof over the east. Depending on placement that could signal another round of wet weather. A trof axis over the Ohio Valley or along the Appalachians would make for a wetter go around here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm at 9.74" for the month making it the second wettest July for me, only topped by 2023 with 13.95". My average is 4.85". Interesting to note that I had .08" more in the Stratus than in the Davis which had to be due to splash out from the Davis in the 12.52" per hour rate for five minutes followed by a 11.76" rate for five minutes around 9:30pm last night.

Don't have any information on rainfall rates here. My period of record here is just about 9 years. Will have to go back and look to see what my wettest month was. Good question.

I was in Midtown when that cell flared up at 1600 and it looked like tropical downpours for nearly 10 mins. Sure seemed like a bit more than what they reported. That sorta reminds me of when I was a kid in the early 50’s and we used to play tag with, what we called, sun showers. I guess the convection strength was either very isolated or that the ASOS cover foliage in Central Park soaked up a lot of what was falling. I like your screen name. As always …..

Been a while since things were this green and this well watered at the mid point of Summer. Still some long term dryness going on but big improvements over NNJ last several weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
