aldie 22 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 We have had a pretty good spring and summer for rain here. We dont have the most but it's been pretty consistent. Ive been in Leesburg for 9 years and this is the greenest we have been this late in August...I'm pleased Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattskiva Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Seems a bit dramatic...we have been plenty wet...unless being the wettest is your goal Well it wouldn't be so bad if we had more rain in June & July. Fair point that it's only 13 days but last month, I had 5 inches in 5 hours on July 11/12 and about an inch the rest of the month combined; similar story in June - one or two days of excessive rain and very few total days with rainfall. My grass is brown anywhere the sprinklers don't reach. To me, at least, it's felt like a dry summer because of the small number of days with measurable rainfall. Lots of days like the last several with foggy, misty conditions that don't amount to anything, then high humidity and sun, etc. My grass was much greener last summer. Lots more pop-up storms, at least it seemed that way, and lots more regular summer showers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoast NPZ Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I don't see how you could need rain. I'm hoping for about a week with none. Everything is still nice and green, but in the last week we've gotten a total of about .4", despite multiple FFW events. If we go a week without any rain, things will start getting brown here. edit to add that it is a gorgeous morning. 54F for the low. Looking forward to the low 50s tonight; someone may be pull off an upper-40s low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
