I hear that. I don’t think the heat means that much though in terms of impactful drought—I don’t recall any summer droughts causing this level of fire danger. Fortunately, that’s all coming to an end.

I dare say this has been an epic “flash” drought. Far more impactful imo than a summer one where there’s little precipitation, but daily dews are in the 60s or 70s.

Clown maps aside, it’s a beautiful storm and pattern evolution. It’s nice to go into met winter with some legitimate (favorable pattern) hope.

I’m not sure what the source was for yesterday’s fire, but I was told we had three others. Two were people open burning in their backyard. One guy threw his cigarette into a bush and the whole thing went up almost immediately—in front of one of our fire stations. Crazy stuff

Mannnn we need this rain to produce. All hell almost broke loose in the neighborhood.

I have 12/1/19 and 12/16/20 in my records. Both were warning events and 12/16 is one of only two 12”+ storms since winter 2018-19 here.

Wiz says the blues are really reds. The lines are inverted. Torch coming.

Let’s get a storm like this during winter. 1mb every ten minutes lol. What a beaut.

It has been insane. I actually checked my VP2 to make sure the system was working properly. I haven’t needed to mow in a very long time, and leaf pickup has been the easiest it’ll probably ever get.

Our friend will ride historic drought persistence until he’s wading through waist deep water in his basement.

It has been a truly horrific stretch since I came back in 2018. Without the Feb miracle I would’ve been below a foot of snowfall on the season. Worst season yet. It’s time for something better…I hope…

And I do hope that completely unexpected wrench in tropical season also means that we get a positive wrench for our winter. The last half decade plus has been miserable. We need a break from rains to Maine.

I did too, but it ended up a quality over quantity season. The SFMR thing was just weird. I wonder if they decided that after missing that Ian was a 5 right before landfall.
