psv88 Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Srefs about .5+ for the area most of it from the afternoon action tomorrow The one day it rains is the day of the firm summer outing. Terrific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doncat Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 we could be at the beginning of a long dry period...Since 1971 NYC had only four years with less than 40" of precipitation...2016 could be number five...The previous 45 year period from 1926 to 1970 had 21 years with less than 40"...If 2016 ends up with less than 40" it would be twice in five years that happened...The 1960's had six straight from 1961 to 1966 with less than 40" of precipitation annually...Driest year I've recorded here since 1981 was 37.68" in 2001...so far this year have 17.94".

bluewave Posted June 27, 2016 Author Share Posted June 27, 2016 CmC also showing .5+ for tomorrow. We shall see what happens. Convection has been a big crapshoot here recently. It may depend on where that weak wave of LP forms as to who sees the best storm chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. Models usually have a hard time on placement and recently we have been missing out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
