RIcoastalWX Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 69/67 - 1.30 so far (been raining for 40 minutes). Davis had 8.23/hr at 6:15pm as the incredibly heavy rain began. Not sure how accurate the Davis but it looked like it was snowing it was coming down so heavy. Gusty west winds as the rain began. Light E and NE winds all day now light WSW.

Ginx snewx Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Seems the country is in the midst of a pattern change, much more precip becoming available, ridge moving west, AK vortex in its death throes. We are in a high humidity regime, dissipation of heat thru convection. It will not be long, already getting dark . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugarloaf1989 Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 The rain today was welcome to help with the mild drought. Now if we could only get enough rain to be able to go kayaking on our local rivers. It's been so dry the even with this rain river levels are still near record lows.
