As I went to bed last night, there was a storm just west of here that somehow died on my doorstep and redeveloped just to the north. I ended up with .05” and no other rain in the past ten days. But I’m at 2.60” for the month so I’ll be fine if I get something today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow...crazy that your in-laws are only a mile away. As that line formed, I was right on the edge of a split, so we got very light rain consisting of huge drops. It then filled in right over us and developed more to our NW, which then slid over us. Some of the heaviest rain I've seen this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll take more of that please Yep, that was an unexpected one for me until I saw the sky lighting up to the north/west (hadn't been tracking the radar). Got about an 1" from that based on nearby reports! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlizzardNole Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 I just don't get how this happens so consistently. Other parts of my county have had numerous storms over the last week while I have to heavily water my garden this evening. It's such a dull boring place for weather. Lucky to see one or two thunderstorms in a whole summer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nj2va Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Been getting a steady stream of heavy downpours the last hour here in Deep Creek. Some T&L earlier. Nice to listen to with the windows open. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Picked up a total of 0.16" of rain from this 'event'. One quick downpour early afternoon yesterday and another one early this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also a decent chance of some showers Sunday associated with the upper energy rotating down and passing to our north. Looks like something might pop along the trailing cold front. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mappy Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 .21 yesterday (includes early morning rain and whatever we got yesterday afternoon) 3.4" for July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George BM Posted July 30, 2021 Author Share Posted July 30, 2021 I got a taste of @EastCoast NPZ's magic this week. Other than a couple big drops of rain Monday and a brief light/moderate shower yesterday afternoon with the cell that fizzled over me ( maybe ~0.05" total?) it was a shutout for me here in Herndon. Positive Spining Time : Less mowing. My grass has barely grown since last mowing it two Saturdays ago. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxdude64 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Well, that 'chance of storms' went the same direction the last 3 weeks have gone...nada. Still at 1.02 for the month, 0.25 last 19 days and goose eggs last 12. 1.50 since 6/15. Sheesh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usedtobe Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 0.52 yesterday. I was in a severe thunderstorm warning but didn't have much wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dailylurker Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 That enhanced risk ended up bringing me a 10 minute shower that probably dropped .05". Still dry under the trees and ground is rock hard. It went from swamp to desert in 30 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDM Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 The storms yesterday split and went east and west of us here in Vienna. The storms Wednesday evening split us N and S. Only managed .24" over the last week with abundant T&L all around. Amazing to get missed so much on all sides... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hasn’t felt rainy, just seems like we’ve had a few healthy days of rain spaced out enough to keep it from getting crispy.

MN Transplant Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 DCA is above average on the year at >26”. IAD is below average at <20”. Very localized effects, especially this summer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
