12Z GFS hooks NW into Central LI and then almost stalls before moving NE again and going out to sea just S of Boston. Got to look at the tide levels for several high tides.

Hi Alex, Hope you and the family had a good summer. What would you guess as your first frost date? Around September 1rst?

Cold front is through. Rain missed about a mile north. After 10.56" of rain in July I have only received .03" of rain this month. Pretty crazy!

Earlier this summer a bear got one of our apple saplings. I am seeing bears at least once a week now in our pastures. They are definitely becoming more numerous.

Well it 'was' our favorite peach tree. At least the bear left some fertilizer

Just a quick rant about the awful forecast presentation I just watched on NH only TV station WMUR. Eric Weglarz 5pm forecast went on and on about the heavy rain threat. I don't know where he gets his graphics but I don't see anything bringing heavy rain into the state except for the extreme SE. Never did he say most of the state is going to stay dry. If I watched this from my area, Newfound Lake I would sure think we have a very good chance of heavy rain. It's not going to happen this far NW. Okay, I feel better getting this off my chest.

It's 36 hours away.. 18Z GFS gives me 0.00". 18Z NAM gives me 2.09 Glad it is not winter.

Ended up with 1.41". That is the biggest rainfall this summer. Our pond is now 1/2" filled. Usually it is dry by now. Unlike most of you I am happy for the 10" over the past month and cool weather. Gardens and lawn look amazing

1.15" here. Brings month to 8.15"

Best thunderstorm in a couple of years last evening. 1.07". Some small hail. Gusty winds and lots of lightning. One thing that I found interesting. Thunder was not loud. Wonder if smoke had to do with that? 7.25" ish for the month

Severe thunderstorm just ending 63F .77" Moderate rain. Small hail during storm and gusty winds 30mph in my sheltered NW location Youtube during storm

Finally a summer with rain. Lawn and gardens looks real good.

Very curious what I end up with?? Could be.50" could be 2.50". My gut takes the under

Taken as a whole, when was the last time this much rain was falling all at once in Massachusetts?

Just had quite a thunderstorm as far as lightning goes. Many cloud to ground strikes around Newfound Lake. No wind and storms weakened as they past. Only .15" as the core went just south.

I'm probably the only one on the boards that is happy. I have had much less rain than most of you but finally having a mid summer without wilting gardens and brown grass. 4.50" ish for July has been super. I will take another heavy thunderstorm or two and then it can stop. Nice to have windows wide open. Very refreshing out there.

Nice patch of rain moved through earlier this morning .45"

Drum roll please..... .27"

For those of you that like to see nature at it's best the volcano in Iceland is putting on an amazing show right now. Use the slider on the live Youtube feed to go back a bit as the eruption ebbs and flows.

Here's a pic. It was dry last week with grass growing in the basin. Since it is man made it always goes dry or near dry by summer's end. Rain has stopped. I have not been emptying Stratus on a 24 hour cycle so it is hard to say how much rain was from Elsa vs the front but this has been a very wet July so far. 4.15" so far this month.

63F Light to moderater rain1.15" since 8am Note to self in winter... NW edges can be off. This way overachieved here

61F Driving,heavy rain. Models had me just out of Elsa's heavy rain shield but it has made it in. About .75" since 8am Would this be considered a deformation band in winter

57/55F Heavy rain. We should miss the CDO of Elsa but some nice heavy rain just now

57F Light rain. About .20" during daylight hours. (.30" last night) Quick look at the models. Core of heavy rain from Elsa looks to pass by about 30 miles SE of me. Just can't score a real soaker. Maybe everything will come NW just a bit...

75/62 Partly cloudy Very comfortable afternoon in Central NH. Enjoy the heat, humidity and storms for all those south of me...
