mdhokie Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 21 hours ago, dailylurker said: I see the forecast next week is already clear as mud lol Seems like everything is a stalled front or just pop up randomness these days. Is it a result of generally more moisture in the air? Not sure how to describe it but we don't get the light-moderate, large precip shield type systems anymore. Also feel this is why forecasts have a difficult time pinpointing the winners and losers. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also feel this is why forecasts have a difficult time pinpointing the winners and losers. That's pretty typical in the warmer months, though, right? That said, this has been one of the most humid summers that I can recall...certainly since those legendary summers of 2017 and 2018. What we're really missing are those southern storms or even tropical remnants, but the overall base state airmass since spring implies we may get more of those this year.

nw baltimore wx Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Missed the afternoon stuff but got a very isolated morning downpour. .17” on the day and about .90” for the month. This is the first time all summer that my lawn looks stressed. I don’t know why it’s so difficult to get a good grass seed season around here.

kgottwald Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 I thought we were going to get dewpoints in the 50s by late afternoon - now it's onlyy for two or three hours in the overnight then it's right back up to tropical levels?? And day after day of miserable rain and increasing damp chill next week?? I HATE this frigging climate!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormy Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 A 5 model blend now puts my rainfall at 2.11" for Monday - Wednesday. Just what the doctor orders. Hopefully, this will be the beginning of 6 months worth of moderate to heavy rainfall. Augusta has a 10 - 12" deficit to recover since August 2025.

I was hoping that the rain would miss us, as some of the models were showing, and that we could get a week or two of sunny mid-seventies with 45-degree dews to get us on a good start with fall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
