MarcmmKU Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago Hopefully all this rain means a great fall foliage season. The last few have been rotten because of severe niña induced summer droughts. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterwx21 Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago 37 minutes ago, Brian5671 said: have yet to water the lawn this spring/summer Wow. I had to water the garden constantly before July due to the super dry pattern -- we were in a severe drought for awhile. Thankfully it turned around in July. Now a good start in August -- glad to get 1.32" so far today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterwx21 Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago 1 hour ago, psv88 said: 1.50” so far and more to come. I’m sure we’ll hear more drought talk I'm not sure why people question the drought. The drought monitor maps have shown that much of the area has been in a moderate ro severe drought the last couple years. I know because I've had to water the vegetable garden so much the last 2 seasons with the very dry ground. Thankfully things turned around in July and it continues now at the start of August. El Nino to the rescue it appears. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterwx21 Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago Just had another little downpour here with that line that got me up to 1.47" for the day. It appears that's about it. Perfect amount of rain here -- a very good soaking for the garden, but not enough to cause flooding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect amount of rain here -- a very good soaking for the garden, but not enough to cause flooding. I was in the heaviest part of that line. Peak rainfall rate of 10"/hr, so extremely intense. Up to 2.50" on the day and around 2.60" for the event. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

straphanger Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Squall line kinda fell apart over the city and sun is breaking out now. Ended this event with 1.26"...over 2/3 of an inch less than LGA a few miles to my west. I'll take the less rain though, since we're running above normal in general for the last few weeks.
