The current humidity is on par with the Deep South. If this general theme continues you can forget about droughts and start getting concerned about Fall flooding.

I need to move to Frederick. 

Just be prepared for construction everywhere, higher COL, and probably more traffic.

The only option today was for a rogue shower to beeline over Frederick.

That's always an option this summer. It looks like they are lined up for their daily flooding rain. If there's a slight chance for a storm it's hitting Frederick.

Direct-ish hit from that small cell in HoCo. We’ll see if it’s enough rain to beat yesterday’s pathetic total lol. But I like the look of the complex near HGR…

The only problem is I’m starting to gain weight from not biking enough lol. Was planning to go today, but looks like another beeline incoming.

Just came through Hagerstown and it’s a lake. 1.5 inches of rain in the last hour.

I’m not that surprised. It was legitimately humid out again. That is the number 1 difference between this summer and the previous few. Mid 70 dews is gulf coast level.

Seemed to be parked under a gully washer. Up to .77” now with a rate of 4.37. And there is more behind it. Have my submit a report up for the NWS when this has moved out. For sure will be over an inch.

Charlottesville gets hit with another severe storm. Sure that as soon as I arrive it’ll be the driest remainder of the year on record.
