Maybe this was already mentioned in the thread days ago but on Sept 2nd Death Valley's high of 127F was a record high for September and a world record high for the month. That is very impressive. (and scary)
This summer people kept saying drought begets drought. The Dallas event and this event shows that areas in very series drought can still get inches of rain in a few hours.
Rain is over here 1.42" final
I'm not sure how accurate my Davis rain gauge is but I just went back and checked. Assuming Concord NH averages 3.5" of rain per month I have not had an above normal qpf month since last October's 4.89". I can't say what the qpf for the winter months were but my snowfall was about average.
12Z Euro southward ho.
Another nickel or dime situation for CNE? Glad SNE is getting the goods. If this keeps up I will be where SNE was a few weeks ago.
I know a fair amount about aviation and it would be very hard to do with a plane all things considered. It would much easier to do in a a car than a plane. Better yet and real easy is to just to put governors (is that the right word) in cars so they couldn't go way over the speed limit but keep police type vehicles able to go faster. People would balk like crazy of big brother interference.
Getting back to weather 12Z GFS coming in is putting down some big rain totals. I will have image in a couple of minutes.
Im watching him on flightaware. He is over rural areas but in Ripley MS just SE of him is a Walmart. It is not very easy to steal a King Air. Turbo Prop Twin. I have my private pilots license but could not just jump in a twin and fly away.
Easy come easy go? I really need a 2" soaker for the water table. Looked great yesterday but wagons south. Looking like it is SNE turn. I hope it is not one of the years that the mountains get plenty of qpf as SNE comes out of the drought and I get stuck in the middle.
Newfound Lake had it's lake fog going this morning. It almost looks like an eddy of wind formed in the lakes basin. 15 second time lapse last couple of hours or so.

Alex, 35.8F. Your garden gets to live another week. This will get the swamp maples turning. It's been a good summer. First half was perfect then some heat and humidity. You got much more rain than me but maybe a soak on Monday.
Almost turned on the heat this morning to make sure the furnace is functioning. I'm glad I ordered 4 cords of green wood last spring. Oil and electric have skyrocketed. Even my electric car doesn't have the big financial edge it had.
I know people north or me are okay in rainfall. I'm way down for the year. Maybe a good soak early next week. These nickel and dime rainfalls keep the grass green but don't get down to the roots. My baby apple trees are taking a beating for lack of rainfall and now we have a bear infestation. Almost every day I see a bear.
