Managed to double my July/August to date total with 1.79" yesterday. Needed it. Not the 3-5" that fell in interior York but it's a dent in the Stein bucket nonetheless.

On that image you posted I am between Cape Elizabeth and Portland, that blue/green zone and I'm over 2". Very efficient rainfall this evening.

We're in the same boat. Newer house, newer system, propane for 2400 sq, spend $1200 a year all-in on propane. Even with the price we locked in at this year, we're looking at $1400 based on past usage. Looked at heat pump system, did the analysis, would not be worth the investment for heating because we're so efficient. The only reason we would have gone for it would have been for cooling. Much more efficient than running window units. My local climo/house isn't that demanding on cooling, though, so ultimately we didn't get them.

Can I join the Stein pissing match? 1.76" since 7/1, over half of that coming yesterday. Fight me!!

Damn, I don't even have that since 7/1. We envy. 0.68" as of 7AM, 0.99" for the month. We still take.

Lol 77/70 at 11PM

Sitting at 79F at 920PM, a mere 3 miles from a body of water that's 65F. Wtf?

I would say the issue lies with your gadden/gardener, not the lack of precip.

Absolutely nailed it.

We have an area that borders the woods just outside the fence in this photo that's our milkweed area. Similar to what @mreavesposted. This year we planted Mexican Sunflowers in the box adjacent to that area and we've been flush with polinators including monarchs, bees, hummingbirds and something I didn't know existed: hummingbird moths (second photo). I highly recommend these sunflowers for any pollinator garden.

don't forget unmitigated disease spread

I wonder if the increase is pandemic-related. More inexperienced people taking to outdoor activities - thinking specifically things like kayaking and paddleboarding.

For sure. I am not undermining the awfulness of the tragedy... People have to use common sense. Being in a car, sitting still, under 40ft white pines during a storm, no matter how severe, is not a good idea. Maybe they couldn't go anywhere else.

somehow your lawn looks even worse from space

there used to be a WxStem camera up high on a building at St. Joseph's College, would be a great shot for this as it's headed right for them.

ruh roh This camera is missing in action. It may no longer be available for public viewing.

83/71 yuck

First 90F this year here. 90/64F and AC finally installed yesterday.

And to cap it... 0.29"

Fun clouds in SoPo

any chance this line in NH makes it to the coast or is the usual "foothills and seabreeze ensure 0 precip makes it to MBY" thing?

48 for the low. Yore.

Especially if you do it a week after the holiday. Absolute wankers.

If you light off fireworks in a residential neighborhood (while there are public displays within 2 miles in any and all directions) you are a tw*t of the highest order. Or a veteran. F*ck.
