Models already backing down on amount of precip. I've seen this the last 6 mos. I got a bad feeling about this. I hope this doesn't just fizzle out again.
Bring it!!!! I'm still sceptical though. It is nice to see a change in pattern though. I can't believe how brown it is around here. We basically just got out of dormancy here, and went right back.
For my area, sure its been hot. But the humidity has been very low. These temps are tolerable with the low humidity. Front came through early this morning, feels like Fall. 47 degrees with 20MPH winds. ZERO rain with it though. The GA red clay dustbowl continues. Oaks dropping leaves already
Ironically, I am right by that .8. Talk about the screw zone! Local mets saying to get out of the drought conditions we would need around 20 to 25 inches of rain the next couple of months. I'd be shocked if we get that much rain in the next year.
Unfortunately I just looked this morning. Same for Georgia. Absolutely zilch through May 3rd. You would think with the heat we would get some rogue tstorms. Big fat nothing. The clay has turned into permanent cement, and is now starting to crack open in many spots on my property.
Agree, it's hard to break this pattern. It's rained twice in the last 2 months. Yes, twice. Add that to the dry fall and winter....yikes. Everyone around here has not had to mow their lawn/weeds yet. If they do, it's nothing but dust.
