1.65" here so far. Backed off a bit but still steady rain falling.

Finally broke the streak. Gets frustrating when it is wet af in May and June, then suddenly goes dry for 10 days during July when damage to lawn and plants can happen very quickly.. 2 years in a row.

Wild Day...

Driving home on Skyline Drive in Shenandoah National Park. About ten miles from Front Royal on Skyline Dr, strong storms came through. Stopped at overlooks and heavy cloud cover rolling up the mountain blowing across the road and then thick fog took over the mountains and road. Visibility lower than 100 feet. Heavy rain. Loud thunder and multiple flashes of lightning while in the mountains. 

And then it rained the whole way home through VA, WV, and Maryland except the rained stopped while passing through Ellicott City and then rained the rest of the way home. Great driving weather...

2.32" yesterday, 6.03" for the month. 

basement flooded yesterday as well. a coworker who lives in Parkville said her neighborhood had a flash flood yesterday. feet of water in the basement, yard is all torn up. so as much as i was complaining last night with having to clean up, in comparison i was lucky.

Seems silly to be speculating about excessive heat a week out when there is still uncertainty about the impact Barry will have for this region. As of now it looks like a decent bet some tropical moisture will become entrained in a front approaching mid next week. Looks plenty warm and humid, but with clouds/chances for showers and storms middle to late week, temps reaching upper 90s seems like a long shot through next Thursday at least. Who knows after that.

How hot will it get at the end of next week? NBC 4 has been teasing upper 90s by the end of the week, but other forecasters show more moderate heat. 

Don't think we get sustained 95+...soils are wet and this has been the summer of damped down heat.

Over 2.25 inches yesterday, mulch washed away and piled up in the bottom drive way, trees swaying down, garden hit hard, So much rain ! 

Power outages here and flooding on many roads. 

I believe the ground water levels must be very high. Fungus and other crap all around. Like clock-work this is similiar to last July. 

The first storm that hit us before the main area was a sight to behold. A lot of booming thunder with the evening complex.  

Some sad news about a car that washed away,  driven by a women who was pregnant and her child in the Philly area. 

We need a serious break in my area.

If your basement is finished with carpet and drywall then it's a real real mess .

thankfully the leak was in the unfinished part, so just cinder block and concrete floors. but like most basements, they are filled with shit and as it always happens the leak ends up being in the like farthest corner where its surrounded by all the things. lol
