wxeyeNH Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 radar looks strangely apocalyptic for just some moderate rain. did hear one rumble of thunder as the line past east of me. Eek, how much rain would have to fall to give the grass roots at least some water? Would .15 to .20" be enough to get through half an inch to an inch into the soil?

Trugreen fertilized yesterday and leaves a note saying we should "water in" with ~1". yeah right. With our well water? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably depends on a number of factors including soil type(sandy, clay, loam, etc), current soil moisture/dryness, rate of rainfall, runoff, etc. I don't know, but you can always just stick a shovel in the lawn and just take a peak, I will do that when I am curious about it.

mreaves Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Looks like KMPV picked up .6" this morning plus a couple of tents overnight. That jibes with what I could see looking out the windows at work this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it depends on way too many things. Only way to know for sure is to look. I got about .17" and most of it doesn't look like it soaked in beyond 2" deep.

I got about .17" and most of it doesn't look like it soaked in beyond 2" deep. Guess I answered my own question. Went out to the garden with a hoe. Top 1/4" was wet but under that just dusty dry soil. Bottom line is it did little for me. If the soil had been already moist from previous events the .17" probably would have soaked in further. Turned out to be a fantastic afternoon. Extremely cool for June 22nd, only 61F at 230pm with about 75% sun vs Cu. See lots of pop up showers in VT but probably will not make it here. Enjoying the cool weather before the heat returns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lava Rock Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 0.25". At least I don't have to water tonite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamarack Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 One or two rumbles in Augusta and probably < 1/4". Echoes looked better for the home front, might approach 0.5" before all is done. Quite welcome after 2 weeks with 0.07" total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Surprised to only find 0.33" (would have guessed .4-.5")...but with yesterday's 0.25" that brings us to 0.58"....which like Tamarack said is certainly welcomed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Congrats MWN https://www.instagram.com/p/BG-Ktc3Fh1y/ Nice, that would explain the stronger radar echoes on some of the scans. Definitely some bright banding. Makes sense the snow level would be at 6kft as the bright band was overhead here which is indicative of 6-7kft. When it's over Mansfield or west slope it's usually 3-4kft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Yeah I'll be curious to see what we've got but it's just been absolutely pouring the past 60 minutes or so. image.gif With snow on MWN that's definitely a bright band ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 47F with some thick valley fog. Mostly clear at home though with just some occasional patches of fog rolling through. That's pretty much our perfect setup for radiating...calm conditions and some cooling off the top of the fog layer while deeper into the valley is socked in and saturated.

tamarack Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Nice porcupine caught eating in the yard this evening. Porkies are rather inoffensive creatures (when they're not debarking the nicest of the pine saplings), but I've de-quilled dogs enough to not wish any of those rodents be near our house.

I heard strange animal noises the other night in the field. Pointed the flashlight to see 2 Porkies next to each other. Don't know if they were fighting or mating. Once they were in the flashlight beacon they wallowed into the brush. Took the drone up to Franconia Notch for a quick flight. Usually a very windy place but was fine yesterday. What a beautiful part of the country we live in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
