Not counting yesterday's trace, day 19 of no rain.
96.3 at 1:20pm today. Yesterday turned out to be a "pleasant" 87 for a high, even did a little garden work.
I look at my lawn and say "look how they massacred my boy..."
91.1 yesterday at 2pm. No rain from passing storms, but a lot of smoke came through in the afternoon. Sky was orange for a bit. Didn't hear anything about a wildfire anywhere.
Whopping 0.01" of rain today. 1.2" for the month, most of which came down on the 3rd. Hopefully we'll get something on Sunday to get the garden going and wash away the pollen. Meanwhile, in Dubai.....
Rain total from yesterday's storm stayed at .01"
Fantastic morning to have the windows open if you can handle a little dust and pollen, low of 58 at 7:30am. Might see the first 90+ of the season next week.
0.01" so far, some branches down in the yard from the wind earlier. Could use a good downpour to clean up the pollen, not seeing any precip in the forecast for some time.
As for the eclipse, went from 77 to 72 and breezy. Very noticeable!
.64" in the bucket from this event. Good wash down of the pollen. Driving around yesterday morning the pollen created a greenish fog in some areas east of Raleigh.
Too bad you missed Feb 2003 in DC. Was some severe Milk, Bread, and TP going on. I remember having to shovel out my clothes dryer exhaust from a 4' drift next to the house. It was the first time I teleworked. Also remember a sleet storm in either 06 or 07. It was like walking through beach sand.
