Nice, nothing close to that here, maybe 0.3". We've had enough rain recently to keep the garden going on it's own but not enough to really get the grass growing yet so it has been just about right.

I had no idea. Was not expecting that when I went out to the gauge this morning.

Looks like next week has more chances to green things up again.

As we get into August the nighttime lows are almost always lower than the lake temps (mid to upper 70s) so we should get more chances for rain. Lake effect rain should also pick up and any storms that develop should get fueled by the lake as opposed to killed by the lake in April-July.

We made it to 96...which I believe is the hottest temp in BUF since July 15th, 1995 when we hit 97.

Yes indeed. Still 81 here.

Pretty impressive statistic, especially for the Buffalo area at least...

AT 349 PM EDT...THE TEMPERATURES AT THE BUFFALO AIRPORT REACHED 96

DEGREES...SETTING ANOTHER RECORD. THERE HAVE BEEN ONLY THREE TIMES

IN BUFFALO`S CLIMATE HISTORY WHEN THE TEMPERATURE REACHED 95 DEGREES

OR HIGHER ON TWO CONSECUTIVE DAYS. THE FIRST TIME WAS JULY 5-6, 1988

WHEN THE TEMPERATURE HIT 95 AND 97 DEGREES RESPECTIVELY. THE SECOND

TIME WAS AUGUST 1-2, 1944 WHEN THE TEMPERATURE HIT 95 AND 96

DEGREES. NOW WE CAN ADD YESTERDAY AND TODAY TO THE LIST.

Pretty wild and amazing stats to say the least. But Richard, any chance you caught C's latest bull**** on the blog?
