wxdude64 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 A small shower rolled thru in last hour, dropped 0.03 keeping the monthly streak of rain everyday but the 16th intact here. EDIT- looks like ROA getting pounded again today, they may reach 15 inches for month yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herb@MAWS Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Excellent pop-up downpour on east end of Columbia at 4:45pm. High today was 91.1 and down to 90.0 with showers ongoing. Brighter skies all around me. About 0.04" in 6 or 7 minutes so far. This puppy seems to be forming basically overhead. Now getting a few sounds of crackling thunder, up to 0.11 in total, about 10 mins worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Had a few sprinkles that did nothing but send the DP up a couple more degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoast NPZ Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 .55" this afternoon as measured at the nearest wxbug. My gage has more, but I don't trust its accuracy. That's more rain than I've seen in a month. Much needed and appreciated. Also the most lighting (by far) of any storm this season. Reminiscent of last summer's storms.

WinterWxLuvr Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Anybody got the site that shows GFS max/min, precip, etc in table format for the next 16 days. I believe it shows it every 6 hours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWxLuvr Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Yeah that is an impressive batch of storms and rain out there. Enjoy I think you've got a shot. The south end of that blob just keeps redeveloping as the whole batch shifts east.Edit: what's been most impressive is the lightning with it.

WinterWxLuvr Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 This is usually about the time when Sterling radar craps out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmlwx Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 This is usually about the time when Sterling radar craps out. It does? I only can remember a few storm events where we lost radar (one was recent though, so maybe that's what you're thinking of?) Or do you mean it dries up?

mattie g Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I'm so tired of this. Hot and humid for days no days on end, but just enough rain to make things more humid - not even enough to measure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the NWS site, so maybe I need a new site? I can't speak for other data sources but I'm using Allisonhouse with GR 2 Analyst and have had uninterrupted data. So the radar itself is not down. Also - might be your internet cache or something similar. Yeah we may get it if it holds over that last ridge, otherwise it doesnt happen here lol. We will see. It says it is down for maintenance Must be just on NWS page - I am getting uninterrupted data via Allisonhouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
