Augdewst 2026: Summer's Last Stand

[kdxken]

Just uninstalled. No hot nights on the horizon. In for the first 10 days of July and out. Reinstall at the beginning of August and out today. Seems to be a pattern.

Now that's freaking cool.

Quite the light display out there tonight. Woke me up. Lost power too briefly though right now it’s back on.

That cell woke me at 4:30. good rain and thunder with that one

[dendrite]

Damn what a lightning show. Pounding right now

[dendrite]

Sounded like some peas outside hitting the stove pipe and roof, but wasn’t going out in these CGs to check. Had a couple flash booms.

Took one look at radar and first thing I said was 'damn, dendrite about to get smoked!'

10.87”/hr rain rate. Pretty much lined that one up perfectly. 1.12” going back to last night (0.14” + 0.98” this morn)

I was half conscious hearing distant booms. I thought it was construction at first. This lightning had an extra vigor to it.

59°

Surprised you thought construction...

"Nearby thunder?  Can't be. It's more likely the sound of Stein crushing my hopes and dreams.  Back to bed."

Hoping it makes it to the coast.  I'd take .25" at this point, as I've got 1.43" MTD but that was all back on 8/3.

Nah it was the webbed hand of his sleep demon knocking on the door. 

Dual-pol instantaneous rates are consistently pushing 6-8"/hr with that thing though.

No I was literally still half conscious in bed. 

Thankfully still no in my REM sleep.

Beast of a storm over Montauk.

[BrianW]

Lots of damage in the Milford/Orange area. 5k power outages all in one small area.

 

[Baroclinic Zone]

Had some light showers. 

[Hoth]

Impressive light show last night and still more heavy rain. I have to mow every three days at the rate the grass is growing, which is stupid in August.
