wxdude64 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 The 0.01 that fell this am just before I emptied the CoCoRaHS gauge at 7 am was first measurable in 6 days. Working on a second thundershower right now, first one about 90 minutes ago dropped 0.10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am pretty sure the Carroll County Airport runs high which is probably where WUSA9 gets the reading. Sensor needs to be cleaned and recalibrated. I mentioned before that it tends to run as much as 5-7 degrees too high. I recorded a high of 93 today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 LOL, between the sprinkles yesterday morning and the two thundershowers in early then late afternoon, I ended up with 0.13. Guess that is better than nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoast NPZ Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Shocked to find Octoberfest on the shelves last week! The 3rd week of July?? As much as I love it, that is just too soon. It's going the way of Christmas creep. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 The CAMs- esp HRRR and 3k NAM- are focusing the convection along the bays and towards the beaches, and also in the higher terrain. Nothing much anywhere else. Makes sense given the lack of forcing/weak shear. I am sure I will see plenty of towers in the distance from my desert oasis(er, hell). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dailylurker Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Looks like early October here with all the leaves coming down. The hot dry weather must be stressing the trees. The grass is toast as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adelphi_sky Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 I'm hearing that there is going to be a stalled front. Is this true? If there is, it HAS to increase the odds of getting over an inch for the event. Even though my lawn is done for the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
