Went back and got last years July total to compare to this July so far. July 2025 2.73” July TD 2026 7.76” I know that Frederick seems to be the rain magnet to some but it usually is the Northern part of the county that gets the big totals. The Southern part, especially the SW portion has hit the jackpot this summer though.

Yes I saw those clouds. That wind when the line blew in was blowing so much that you could not see very far out the windows. Mr. J had just gotten back with our dinner before it all hit. The place we are staying is right along 1D.
-
63 mph gust at the Lewes Mesonet. Initial winds blew in and it has subsided now. Still a lot of lightning and thunder. The line blew out and settled down a bit.
-
@87storms you what you said about me missing the lightning… ah it is insane here and the wind just blew in howling.
-
Well crap that escalated quick. Tornado Warning just to my West of the place we are staying.
-
Mr. J just went out to pick up our dinner. Opened the door and walked into a sauna. This is in Lewes DE by the way so the storms have not gotten here yet.
-
Just got the alert for a Flash Flood Warning for my area. Thankfully it looks like the rain is almost over.

Well I am under a Tornado Watch over here in Deleware. And it is very humid and windy. Checking my station and it is at 2.61” so far. That is after the .61” from this mornings stuff that went through. Kid made it home from dropping off her friend at her house. Will have to wait and see what goes on over here.
-
My youngest just got caught out in it driving. That tornado warning went up just south of my house. Looking at radar some heavy stuff went over my house. I am in DE and relaying stuff back to her.
-
Not at home but heard my Capital Weather lightning detected near my location go off this morning at 4:15. Looked at radar to see my house getting hit with a very nice robust cell followed by another one. Picked up .61” from that early morning round. A

First day at our pet sit in Lewes DE. Had to get groceries and charge the car. Smoke is thick and it smells. Looks like it will be a day in with the kitties we are watching.
-
Yep. But seeing lightning off of that storm to my South.
-
Should be ok. Grew up on boats but good to know being a much bigger boat.
-
So we were in Rehoboth last fall so not too worried if we don’t go in much to avoid crowds. We like to explore. Last year we enjoyed the Lifeguard museum and enjoyed it. Also took a trip up to Dover for the Victoria museum. We had wanted to do some Kayaking if possible. And would you recommend taking the ferry to Cape May? We like museums and nature.
-
Total to end the day 3.86” Honestly cannot remember the last time I have gotten that kind of amount. That first storm thundered for close to an hour. It caused a lot of flooding all over Frederick. Got word that the local farm where I get my CSA and plants they had about 5” of standing water on the grounds and in the green houses.
-
Line moving through up here. Was surprised after that storm that raked the atmosphere earlier. Some thunder and it is raining. Will probably push me close to 4” for the day. Will wait to see what the ending will be.
-
Thanks! Yeah we did a visit of Cape Henlopen State Park but want to explore it more. So defiantly on the list.
-
Sun is back out in full force here.
-
We have a Bakery that makes Thomas English Muffins on the road hence the name. Nice smell unless they burn them. And off topic myself but see you live in Lewes. We are coming over to do a house/pet stay for 11 days in Lewes next week. We were there last year for a day but are looking for more things to do in the area to fill the days. We will be house sitting 2 cats so do not have to stay too close.
-
Absolutely! If you want my spotter number is FK042 my station is currently at 3.79"and located in Ballenger Creek SW of Downtown Frederick. The two links in my signature should show my exact location. Actually I am close to New Design Rd and English Muffin Way where it is blocked off because of flooding where a car started to sink. Frederick Scanner has more details on it.

Was out in New Market, had a massage appointment. Thundered the entire hour love it! Came home and under a Flash Flood Warning and my gauge is at 3.79”. Had to cross over 270 and it is a parking lot North and South. We have not had rain like that for quite a while.
-
Awesome! Thanks for letting me know. Will bookmark it now.
-
The pattern of hot as hell then gray cooler skies seems to be the definition of this summer. Being able to have my blinds opened back up from the heat is nice though.
-
Not my area of Frederick. The county needs to be split when it comes to rain. There is the NE and then there is everywhere else. Mind you I like my .87” that I did pick up late last night.
