Oh, and only 45.7 degrees here...

With that last heavy burst, I'm up to 2.61"

Up to 2.43" now while getting the heaviest rates of the event so far.

Cracked the 2 inch mark a few minutes ago. Currently sitting at 2.03" for the event up to this point...

1.65" for the event so far in my backyard. The heavier rains that i posted about earlier along I-81 in VA now appear to be headed for DC, I-95, and South Jersey.

Looks like a lot of rain spinning up the Virginia mountains along I-81 headed this way...at the moment anyway.

1.14" here...

You're welcome. I thought it was cool that someone's hometown got a shout out.

Cashtown got a Facebook shout out today...

No we don't. I will say though that this nice soaker is good for my mother in law's backyard. I graded and re-seeded it two weeks ago, and it just started to sprout. This rain, and the sun next week, should push it nicely.

So what's causing the blob of excess rain in Central PA? Every global and meso has it in nearly the same area. Everywhere else around it, the totals are about 1/4 to 1/2 less.

So now the rain lingers into Sunday...ugh.

Why? Just why???

Add 10 degrees to both and you have my perfect weather.

I'm sure you are, but curiosity is going to get the better of me. Who knows? It just might be the motivation I need to make the move to go out to AZ and help my mom, who really does need assistance due to her ailing health. I probably should already be out there, but the wife won't go. I struggle every day with what the right decision is. Do I do a temporary, long term move without the wife and help my mom, or do I stay here, and leave mom to fend for herself? She's 95% alone out there, has severe COPD, and can barely see due to macular degeneration. Even if she agreed, I'd never put her in an assisted living center without being out there to monitor how she'd be treated by the staff.

You're temping me again...

Well, the weather's more interesting in Miami, but my mom lives in Phoenix, so for now, PHX is choice #1.

I can't speak for Mahantango, but in reality, I need to move to Miami or Phoenix...lol

Yup I saw that patchy frost from Pillow up to Sunbury.

30.9 was my low this morning. Check out the price of diesel this morning at our authorized fueling location...

It's not quite as bad with a tanker, but yes, wind sucks when driving a truck. It sure seems that way lately...

So tomorrow, per my forecast, is to be windier than today. Ugh... And after seeing that cutoff low (which may or may not actually happen) for May 11th? Just do this to me and get it over with... I used to have a love for weather, but it's really waning lately, and in reality, I don't belong on a cold and snowy favored board anyway. At this point, I just can't bring anything positive to the table as I'm so frustrated.

Why can't the core of cold air stay in Canada where it belongs?

I'm just majorly frustrated. I was listing to the weather radio in the truck and the 8-14 day outlook calls for below normal temps and above normal precipitation. I've had enough.
