You mean mist? It was all over yesterday. Plus you had NE winds which downslope as you know.

Man, I wish. Still on 2x per week here.

Yeah its absurd how fast it grows. Usually we get that dormant period like Scooter has but 2 times mowed in 5 days.

The low level flow was SSE which upslopes the CT hills . The valley had nada yesterday. . Look at qpf totals. I know this area better than anyone

It was on radar. Groton all the way up. I had some too. So did the cape.

Anyone mowing twice a week has lawn OCD. There’s probably a pill for it now.

That definitely is what happened around these parts today. I’m at .11 so far of mist and drizzle that never showed up on radar and was not modeled. I checked lower elevation amounts and it was 0.00 to .02 . 

It's just enough to mess up outdoor activities in the summer, but in the winter, it is always fun with roads getting a bit greasy while a mile away there is nothing... 

[Damage In Tolland]

Ended up with .59 this morning . Let’s dry things up now

That’s a decent drink.

0.12” this morning after the 0.04” of drizzle overnight.

Certainly more boring rains . Par the course . Nothing heavy .. just meh

[Ginx snewx]

1.00 and still dumping 

[Snowedin]

That squall line along the south coast means business. It looks like parts of the cape are about to get a good hit with some gusty winds as well. It’s a shame we’re kind of wedged in the middle here between heavy bands.

You don't have 4 dogs and multiple grandkids either. Seriously lawn is nuts. I keep it low not for looks, good god my lawn with my all clay soil is mostly a disaster, I keep it low to keep ticks out, mosquitoes bugs, able to clean dog poop, allow grandkids to destroy the lawn more with football baseball games. PS have to brag. My 8 year old great grandson playing football with mostly 10 year old and a measely 56 lbs going against up to 100 lb kids, scores 2 TDS rushes for 135 yds makes 7 unassisted tackles with 4 assists. Kids a beast. Brag over. I am the least OCD person on the planet. Ask my wife...
