WxUSAF Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Some backside lovin' has got me up to 0.72" on the day. My daughter was with my in-laws today in Bel Air and they couldn't leave when they wanted to this evening because their road was flooded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattie g Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Looks like I picked up another 0.05" after the main rain last night. I just did a tally and I've got around 1.25" for the month, give or take a tenth of an inch. That overnight 0.62" from early in the month really helped, but I have honestly have no idea how that amount of rain came about! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it looks like I'm back in my usual position of bringing up the rear (well, except for Smokeybandit). I don't recall ever seeing so many sunny days on the extended forecast. My 45-day Accuwx (fwiw) has a total of 5 days w/ a chance for rain, and each of those is qualified with a "chance of a little rain...." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoast NPZ Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 With the 0.06 I reported this am, just over 2 inches for month now here, but 1.11 of that fell on 11th. So where are you headed to EC?? Don't know yet. I'm trying to convince the wife to go to western MD or WV, but she's not buying it (at least not yet). She wants to keep the kids closer to her parents (who just moved into our neighborhood in May), unless we can move to SW VA. However, no way I'm moving south. Maybe a move to NW Frederick Co (VA), or back to Warren Co. in a high elevation spot. I've got a year before we really need to start developing a plan. The good news is I don't have to travel far to vastly improve my climate. eta: Highland County looks like a place I'd like too, though I'm not sure what the employment landscape looks like.

EastCoast NPZ Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 an overnight low of 56, woohoo! It cooled off and dried out nicely last night. Refreshing this AM. Can't wait for some low 50s and upper 40s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris21 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Highland County only has a population of 3,000 people with very few employment opportunities outside agriculture, logging, and family run businesses. However you can commute to Stanton/Covington. I lived just west of highland county for a few years 2012-2013 in Pocahontas county, WV. Honestly, Monterey is snowy, but not snowy enough to move solely based on the winter weather. The area around Locust Grove and the very northwest corner of Highland get absolutely slammed with over 150" of snow per year being the norm. This area is very rural and the terrain is rough, but I know that some people live out there. If you're moving for snow head there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoast NPZ Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Those 45 day forecasts are money. I don't put stock in any forecast past 5 days (unless it shows heat, because those are right on 99%); however, I don't think I've ever seen so many sunny days forecasted, at least.
