CAPE Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 For once I hope mby gets jipped out of the heavy rain. A half inch will do. The copious rain lately has yielded a late summer crop of mosquitoes like I have not seen in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoast NPZ Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Picked up a heavy 10-minute shower this afternoon. .48" total. Took the heat down a notch, thankfully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthArlington101 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Found a rainbow. It was pretty bright, but vanished as it went upward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Makes perfect sense I got missed. Next chance of rain is next month for Dale City. I wanted those floods so bad I could taste it. Those of you lucky enough to get caught in those floods, enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I love the rain and I love global warming, I get missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably have to do a late season larvicide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jebman Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Summer or winter Maryland is the place to be. MD gets the rain this summer, and in Jan 2018 Maryland will see fourteen feet of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 2.55" and still raining moderately. Should be ending shortly, I hope. Lots of T&L with this too but nothing severe. Looking forward to a nice dry stretch. Over 6.5" for the month so far, after a very wet ending to July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVclimo Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 After wall-to-wall sunshine all day, a gusty thunderstorm has swept in. Rolling thunder, heavy rain and winds gusting above 30 mph. High today was 90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breeze picking up..feels nice HRRR and NAM nest have been consistent with a line dropping out of PA late today. HRRR had been showing it dying in north-central MD, while the NAM nest allowed for a few cells to make it down to DC. New HRRR says that the DCA-BWI corridor may all see rain in the next few hours. This is the secondary cold front that will bring in the better air mass for Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jebman Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 I did get about 37 rain drops. I am amazed they were so large that i did not need my scanning electron microscope to detect them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 The line pulsed, I got 37 drops then north of me gets trained with yellow returns and plentiful rainfall. There is nothing better in this life, than getting inundated with inches of heavy rain, then the lawn grows very high, then getting to spend hours in the yard mowing amid clouds of beautiful mosquitoes. I love em!!! You have not truly lived, until you have been exposed to extreme global warming induced heavy rains and trillions of mosquitoes while you get to mow that emerald green lawn!!! There are two really great outdoor sounds in life: hearing a lawn mower getting bogged down in wet super high thick grass, and hearing tires whining on ice! I wish i could tape that stuff!
