  1. I thought I had more gifs saved on here, but they must be on my old crashed comp...oh well. Eric always had the best ones.
  2. I think I've mowed once since then.
  3. Usually the tippers underreport because of splash out from the tipping mechanism. This is mostly during heavy rates with rapid tips. Of course the tipper can be calibrated by turning the set screws. Unscrewing them raises them creating more frequent tips. Screwing them in is obviously the opposite. The Stratus is only a 4” diameter opening as well. The standard NWS gauge is pricey, but is 8” diameter. All of these gauges are susceptible to errors due to wind turbulence over the gauge although the newer Davis hourglass design minimizes that. An option for the Davis crowd is to replace the Davis gauge with a Rainwise 8” electronic gauge. I’d have to look up how, but I know there is one that’s compatible. Novalynx has a couple of manual 8” gauges... https://www.scaledinstruments.com/shop/nova-lynx/rain-gauges-2/nova-lynx-260-2510-standard-rain-and-snow-gauge/ https://novalynx.com/store/pc/260-2520-Forestry-Rain-Gauge-8p237.htm
  4. Because they’re pure trash over the interior. CON, MHT, and PSM were all in the 30s.
  5. 0.77” in the tipper. GFS beat the euro easily here.
  6. Disappointing. Probably one last heavy batch to go through, but pretty much meh.
  7. Swamp maples are dropping quite a few leaves down here. Getting some color in the oaks as well.
  8. They're probably just trying to dust bathe? Mine love going for the mulch. Hopefully you'll just talk to your neighbors about it first? lol
  9. He had some localized high gusts around 40mph the other day with the sunny strong S flow. I'd assume he'd downslope and roar with a deep S flow like this as well.
  10. Euro still a soaker for most of the region.
  11. More hit or miss for ENE. But yeah, some will get good downpours.
  12. 2-3" on the GFS and Euro...perfect. We don't need any of that 5" nonsense.
