As of 9:55 PM, Washington, DC had picked up 0.40" rain. That brings total precipitation for 2018 to 52.04". As a result, 2018 surpasses 1942 when 52.03" precipitation was recorded for Washington, DC's 10th wettest year on record.

Elsewhere, in the region, the current figure of 55.97" at Baltimore ranks 2018 as Baltimore's 7th wettest year on record and the total of 53.86" at Richmond ranks as that city's 11th wettest year on record.

Just cracked 10.0" here (Herndon VA).

Posting from the ark?

Just 0.50 here, a little wind and chilly. The 44.0 degree high is a new record 'cool max' for the date, beating 2005's 47.0 reading. That is the 2nd cool max of the month (22nd), first time that has happened in a good while.

Sorry about that. Weenie mode got carried away and changed my 1.36" total to a heavy wet paste.
