NNE Winter: just can't compete with Maple Hollow.

Pouring out as a consolation prize for missing the heavy rain to the southeast today. We had a similar isolated downpour pop up earlier over us but didn't last more than 5-10 minutes and delivered 0.20". Now we've got a second downpour develop right overhead here on RT 108 immediately west of the village (intersection). I can certainly see how areas south and east of here got so much rain today. This stuff is efficient, any prolonged period starts to add up.

Low 52.5F...kinda meh, but still nice. One last shot for Aug 40s tonight. This may end up being my first August here without a <= 49.9F min.

 

40's are tough to come by in the summer here.  I have a pretty narrow range for summertime lows, seldomly getting to the low 50's and rarely failing to drop below 60.

 

54.4 for the low last night.

Had 45 on the 8th.  If that holds, which seems likely, it will be my mildest monthly minimum for August - current standard is 43 in 8/2011.  Median for bottom of August at my place is 39.  Precip up to 4.22", slightly AN for the month, and probably all we'll get.

 

Our peer-review field trip was one for two, wx-wise.  Wednesday was misery mist for 2/3, then mod. RA for 1/3, and a downpour as we arrived at our lodgings on West Grand Lake.  Day two was just perfect, low dews and no bugs.

My new 12V FARS fan is installed. It absolutely roars.

 

We'll see how well it performs. So far I expected more response (jumpier temps) than what I'm getting so far. Hopefully it's not sucking the exhausted air back in. I may need a bit of rope caulk to seal around it too.

Awesome shots, Eyewall.  You're landscapes are always sick.

 

From two days ago, a couple views of passing showers.  Amazing how localized it can be.  Where I was on the Gondola side of the hill, we had only a brief light rain.  Over at the base of the Toll Road they had a 15-20 minute downpour from the drifting and convective cell.  In this picture it is more out over town. Another weak shower moves over the Sterling Ridge.

Thank you and I really like that first image of the rain shafts with gap.

My mini drought continues to intensify.  It's very localized in my town of Bridgewater NH.  We have missed almost every thunderstorm this summer.  Neighbors 2 drilled wells went dry yesterday. Getting worried about my well. I have been watering like crazy but I better stop now.  Perennial gardens with hostas just wilting like crazy.  My 8 foot pond is gone.  Not just muck on the bottom but dry dust.  Hoping for some storms with front this week.  Fingers crossed.

How deep is your well? Will a drilled well that has gone dry replenish itself or would you have to drill again? I thought some of them once dry was the end.

boiling tcu to the northeast and more overhead and to the south from that minicell over downtown.

 

hate downtown this year.

Looks like everything will develop south of me again.  Another week will go by without any rain.  If grass turns totally brown will it come back the following year??

Yes, grass can resist flood and drought and nearly always return the next season. No worries...

 

I feel your drought pain! We have been fortunate here but still, the brooks and ponds are sickly low. Just had a quick .25" shower here and am soooo grateful. But with the next strinkin' H comin' with more heat, I'll be calling for a soaking rain event...and widespread at that. I've had enough of this...(as if weather cares).
