Does that mean it will likely rain since it has done such a poor job?
-
This. If you have irrigation, this is the best time to have seed down. Controlled watering and no risk of washouts.

Are we expecting storms or just showers?
-
where are the storms coming from? Are they going to make it all the way out to us?
-
Do any of these storms look to make it to the city and parts north today/tonight? Not sure if those storms in Connecticut make it that far west.
-
I know it’s a ways away but I see precip in the forecast for this coming weekend. What is the current likelihood of storms or heavy rain?
-
Nah that's an old wives tale. People say that because cool season grass GROWS the best during cooler weather, but it germinates the best during warm weather. my neighbors used to tell me that all the time and my yard crushed theirs year-round. mid August is actually the best time to put seed down because it gives the grass enough time to mature and grow deep roots before the winter. It also gives you time to add additional seed if there is a washout from a big storm, which something like that usually happens. this will be my fourth complete renovation and I’ve learned that putting the seed down in August is best as long as you can keep it moist.

Great. I'm trying to find a window to seed a new lawn in the backyard. Looks like I'll have to dodge washouts over the next several weeks.
-
What direction do they take and could they impact the NE?
-
West of the city, that band looks like it's moving north as it develops.
-
We need consistent rain over a period of time, not flooding rain. The heavy run-off does more damage than good.
-
A few light storms/showers popping up far N and W.
-
Where does it look like the heaviest rain will be today? I need to get some lime and fert on the grass but don’t want it to washout if it’s going to be heavy rain.

Currently 65 here in Ardsley. Positive bust on the temp today.

Really strong winds last night here in Ardsley. Lots of trees and branches down. Schools are closed today due to power outages.
