  1. I was just thinking about how there have been all these extreme rain events (obviously not here recently) but not really an extreme snow event. But that could just be from my perspective.
  2. We got a tenth of an inch on friday to bring the monthly total to .75". Ouch. went riding yesterday and there are so many leaves down it looks like stick season already. went up to cold spring in the afternoon. you can really see the tree damage from the river.
  3. I drove up to fahnstock this afternoon and it was much drier (and dire )up there than down here. Trees looked like the end of October.
  4. Funny thing about this drought. About 5 years ago I totally gave up on the lawn in my backyard. Let it go to weed grass after years of struggling to keep it lush. Now, my front lawn which is good turf is scorched but the back is still green.
  5. Shut out here last night, but im at a little over 3” between July and august.
  6. I got a quick light shower this morning. 18, maybe 20 drops.
  7. Opened the windows upstairs hoping to freshen things up a bit. Only down to 72 but dews were in the 40s earlier.
  8. my paltry harvest of almost ripe tomatoes were decimated by a local woodchuck this past weekend. I saw the critter this morning about to munch on another tomato on the deck, but he caught me spying him and turned away, smirking, undoubtedly knowing I would soon be gone to the office, leaving him free to enjoy lunch.
  9. Getting decent downpour now. Temp dropped from 84 to 80 but the dew is still 74.
  10. For the record, 87/72 at 10pm. Disgusting.
  11. There was a bad fire around bear mtn about 10-15 years ago that burned almost down to the river. I remember it smelled awful for days. Trees are just starting to grow back. I got .2” yesterday.
  12. Sunset on the Hudson near Nyack on Tuesday evening.
  13. got a quarter inch last night for a monthly total of 2.65".
  14. Got .01” last night. Getting there.
  15. doing quite a bit better south of you all. I'm close to 2.5" for July.
  16. 4 times a day? I’m a bad gardener. Didn’t plant much this year. 5 tomato plants. They get watered for a few minutes every 3-4 days. They must hate me.
