The only area that benefits from the 6" is the aquifer and lakes. The vegetation needs rain every few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to weed a bit and it is like it never rained. I guess the overnight winds dried everything out. There are no puddles anywhere around. I was thinking the same thing. Can barley tell it rained over here, pretty remarkable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Five of the top ten have been in the last 6 years. Warm AMO cycle with higher dew points and thus warmer minimums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah...at one point according to Newberry Twp police website, there was no way to get in/out of my location via road. I never left as I was trying to divert water from house and not have to clean up basement...again! I use a standard 10:1 COCORAHS type rain gauge and was measuring about every hour or so throughout the day. From 3:30 pm to about 5 pm was the greatest rate (but even the "moderate" rain was heavy all day!). I've been measuring precip for COCORAHS since 2010 or so. It's easier now for me to go out and get soaked by a tropical rain than melt a column and get the liquid equivalent! When I was younger, I'd do snow angels and pack snow against the tent. Now I'd like to have weather every day like what we had today; Sept 2, 2021! I love weather...and moreso, I love the meteorology and the outdoors!

Bubbler86 Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I just realized this thread was not only quite long, it was the longest (reply wise) in the available history of the Upstate NY/PA sub Thread. I say this acknowledging that winter threads used to be split up into months but still an interesting piece of info. Because it was a core group of posters who were here it is no where near the l most read forum just the most replies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also notice that both the summer and spring threads were started on or near the vernal equinox and summer solstice rather than the meteorological start dates. I’ve come to appreciate both in their own way but since I grew up following the astronomical dates, part of me will always think of those as the “official” start of each season.

If you look back at the first Winter 20/21 and Fall 20 thread you will see they both started using the dates Met's use. So I still contend that this is a primarily cold driven board which is fine using Met dates for fall and winter but uses Astro dates for Spring and Summer as sort of a "well if I have to, I have to" way of trying to hang on to Winter and Spring longer.

Interesting! I assumed the later start dates were just coincidence but that makes sense on a forum mostly populated with cold and snow-chasers.
