Ok, I will jump into this crap for one post as a recently retired Fed. The federal workforce will take decades if ever to recover from the last two years. While dedicated, hard working employees remain to fulfill their agency's respective missions as best they can, the number of us that retired or left has wiped out institutional knowledge, expertise, chains of command, infrastructure, and succession plans. Budget cuts also inhibit technology upgrades that could make up for the lack of human resources. It is a mess!!!! People are doing the best they can. If you don't like things, write your respective Congressional delegations and vote this fall. This post can be moved to banter or deleted when the others are as well but don't disparage the few remaining feds trying to keep things going....

Where is Mappy to clean up this thread!

Radar looks like it is trying to fill in to my west; fingers crossed...

Seems like the only thing that verifies in the long range nowadays is a heat wave...

Light showers, need every drop before the upcoming heatwave.... .10 so far today.

WB 18Z EURO apparent temps for Th.

WB 0Z NBM

Yes!!! And not done at HR 60. WB 18Z 3K NAM

By the way my, site very slow for 2 days. Keep getting upload errors...

WB 18Z NBM; better than I expected.

WB 9Z NBM...here we go again... but don't worry the WB 6Z 12K NAM will save us! Actually, the WB 6Z RDPS is ok for northern areas as well. We are still in wait and see mode...

WB 0Z NBM

Excerpt from latest Sterling NWS discussion. They should use this line for every event.... In short, it is a very complex forecast situation, so stay tuned to the latest forecast for updates as we get to look at more data.

WB 12Z model runs: note GFS has rain coming in Friday evening; RRFS and 12K NAM are nothing burgers (not shown); Canadian on board; EURO

Can't remember a June like this with low dewpoints, a refreshing breeze, and clear, blue skies. Get outside everyone!

WB 9Z NBM

WB 6Z EURO has heavy rain moving through on Saturday.

Does everyone like threads for specific events during the summer or is it too much? If the 12Z Th. Runs look solid can open another thread for Saturday.

WB 18Z GFS for Friday/Saturday. Perhaps some more beneficial rain....added EURO.

WB 6Z EPS 72 hours ending Day 6.

.03; steady, light rain. Will take every drop!

You dust yourself off, and look for the next chance. Saturday is still looking like a possible decent rain event.
