  1. For those of you that like to reminisce: Some good memories here. If you watch till the end what do you prefer? The information overload of today or the way is used to be. For me the information of today is great but there was something "magical" as a kid (70's and 80's) with just evening newscasts, scanning the radio dial (1010, 880, 1130) and my little radio shack weather cube. Personally I'm glad I grew up in that era. If you are not old enough to remember any of that you missed out on great times in my opinion. Who can forget the Winter Storm Watch being downgraded to a Travelers Advisory???? Always a great disappointment.
  2. Yesterday: 1.23" Two day event total: 1.71" October: 3.27" Y.T.D.: 37.65"
  3. Picked up just over an inch so far since 8am. Event total thus far 1.53". Winds blowing here but nothing really noteworthy in my neighborhood. Gusts still in the 25 mph range. Temp. 53. Haven't had a day like this in a loooong time. Have to say it is nice for a change.
  4. Working in the yard the last few days and the top soil is dust. Bone dry. October rainfall to date at my location is 1.56". That is FAR better than last October when the entire month had just a Trace. Still need rain badly. Think reasonable expectation for my area is 1" from the coming event based on current guidance. Anything more will be a gift and anything less will be a disappointment.

  6. There looks to be a mesovortex rotating around inside the eye on visible loop as it makes landfall. Have to wonder if like in Andrew that will produce some extreme local wind gusts as Melissa comes ashore. We should have a landfall statement from TPC incoming at any time now. https://www.meteo.psu.edu/ewall/PSUGOES_MESO1/loop90.html
