NEOH Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Ya its been nice seeing the rain. Looks to be a rainy weekend too. Had enough rain today? Up to 2.70" since this morning. Just a train of storms today with more to come. Looks like the airport didn't do so well. Hopefully the west side picks up some rain as well. Amazing how we can go from dry to wet so quickly.

One of the rainiest days we've had for a while. Even more to come later today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 Wow. I see some personal weather stations near Strongsville had over 5.5" today and yesterday. I wound up with between 2.5-3", definitely the rainiest day in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dta1984 Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Has anyone seen a winter summary from nws cle? Curious how the airport did. They usually have the summary out by now, but couldn't find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 Still no measurable precip for CLE this month. High res models over the past two days consistently showed a washout with over 3" of rain. I can't remember seeing forecasts of heavy rain and 90%+ probs over a 2 day period with nothing more than a trace materializing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More chances later in the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dta1984 Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 One of the better storms in a while. Was outside with my dog and torrential rains started out of nowhere. Crazy winds too. Power still out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best storm of the year. Winds were crazy... Easliy 50-60 if not higher. Branches are down all over. 3.65" for the month so far. So much for the dry spell we had.

NEOH Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Approaching 6" of rain for the month imby. And here I thought we may have a dry-ish summer. Nice to see the sun out there this afternoon with lower humidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amt5626 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 SPC has us under an enhanced risk for severe storms later this evening/overnight. Thoughts on what may be in store for us? Seems that they shifted the focus further south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedskater Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Edgewater Park Weather Station? I just noticed what appears to be a solar powered weather station on the breakwall. Does anyone know anything about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dta1984 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Another heavy rain event on tap for the weekend. I bet many locations close out the month with a foot of rain. Incredible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 Another heavy rain event on tap for the weekend. I bet many locations close out the month with a foot of rain. Incredible! Just incredible amounts of rain. Well over 2" today for most areas. Lots of places with over a foot the past 30 days too. The airport hasn't had as much, but still enough to be 6th rainiest June on record. What's interesting is that 2013, 2014, and 2015 will all make it on the top ten rainiest Junes list. There've been a few months over the past 5 years or so that have had dry periods, but looking at the overall time frame, Northeast Ohio has been in an incredible wet spell.

dta1984 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 There is alot of standing water. Didn't think there was that much rain, but wunderground radar estimates 1-1.5" in a short period of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 NWS 4-km precipitation analysis available here (for free) http://models.weatherbell.com/hrap/nws_precip.php shows that Toledo has had 9-11 inches of rain in 30 days (as of a couple of days ago) and Cleveland has had 9-13 inches. That's huge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Posted July 1, 2015 Author Share Posted July 1, 2015 After today, I've had over 11" of rain IMBY for the month of June. The official rainiest month on record for Cleveland is 11.05" in September 1996. Needless to say many areas likely just saw their rainiest month on record, despite the airport only getting 8-9". It's even more impressive when you consider the 3 inches or so that fell the last days of May. So many areas are pushing 15" of rain the past 35 days, some incredible amounts for sure.

That's huge! You should see it out here bud. To see almost every river except the Blanchard hitting a Major flood stage with top 10 all time crests in June is crazy to see. These fields with poor drainage have essentially turned into lakes with many farmers losing quite a bit of crop Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dta1984 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Had a pretty good storm this afternoon. Radar estimates 1.5-2" on the east side. West side looks mostly dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dta1984 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Seems the switch has been shut off from the excess rain the past few months. Hot and more summer like now. Grass is starting to brown in some areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grass is starting to brown in some areas. Yeah. Quite the turn around. I've only had about 0.10" of rain the last two weeks. Lake breezes have been kicking in daily and keeping temps from getting to 90 at the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Posted July 30, 2015 Author Share Posted July 30, 2015 I don't know if anyone else has seen this in the news lately, but the FAA is investigating CLE's snow removal operations. Apparently the airport had been significantly understaffing itself versus federal regulations during winter weather. I wonder if this helps to explain why CLE has such erratic snowfall measuring totals? It often seemed like totals were made up or were revised the following week. It wouldn't surprise me if they weren't even measuring the snow or perhaps they were falsely under reporting snow so that it didn't trigger higher staffing levels. I doubt the accuracy of snow measurements is the greatest of the FAA's concern versus proper runway maintenance during snow events, but it will be interesting to see what comes of this.

Wouldn't that be interesting. The airport is run so poorly nothing would surprise me. I believe CLE contracts with an FAA observer to handle snowfall measurements. We've had a nice stretch of dry weather locally. As DTA mentioned the grass is actually browning in spots. Thought the storms over the lake would make it the other night but the died out. I'm going to enjoy this dry spell... we'll probably be wet again before we know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEOH Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Beautiful view of the storms rolling in off of the lake.... Pretty rare to have no debris clouds. Just blue skies and the storms. We got missed last night so hopefully these storms take a right turn and head southeast as they normally do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEOH Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Small hail and high winds... Not bad for a collapsing storm that lasted about two minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OHweather Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Pretty decent setup for lake effect rain and maybe some waterspouts fairly close to shore starting tonight. It's getting closer to being that time of year again after a very rainy but otherwise fairly benign summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
