There were several trees down blocking the road to the summit of East Rock this weekend. I'm assuming rain was to blame. Either that or we had a ninja-nado.

No one, apparently As one of the rainiest Julys on record continues -- with the month not even half over -- our plans are in the dumps. How bad is it? There are two ways to answer the question. One is with actual weather statistics. June broke records because it was so hot. This has been the third wettest July ever recorded in Boston, and the month is not even half over. August was the muggiest the universe has ever seen. Oh, wait, August hasn’t happened yet. But just wait. The other way to measure the lousy weather is to observe our plummeting expectations. On the radio, anchors sound downright cheery when they report what would typically be a disappointing forecast. “Rain to start but just clouds later!” they chirp. People have started saying things like, “At least we’re not in a drought,” or, “the West is even worse off.” https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/07/12/metro/wholl-stop-rain-no-one-apparently/?event=event12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Got down to the swamp in NE CT, hit rain on the drive as soon as we crossed the Mass border from VT. In North Woodstock at like 750-800ft I think (can’t be far from @DavisStraight as we are only a mile from the Southbridge line)… misty, maybe some drizzle and low clouds kissing the treetops. Very jungle-like, half expect a gorilla to walk out of the woods. Tons of standing water on the dirt road in here and the pond is even over some docks lol. My dad has a crude/simple rain gauge and he thinks he’s at 11-12” in like the last two weeks. One time the 6” gauge was overflowing this week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They engineer all these geomorphologies to conserve hydro and they work reasonably well in ranges from low, to on point climate … but unfortunately, that doesn’t stop being proficient when in surplus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Historical wet start to July. Boston has 139 years of records. Just blown away. What's odd is the areal coverage. Most July's have varied rain due to isolated nature of convection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Valley Snowman Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Nearby PWS is reporting about 9.6 for the month. Thankfully I've been in Maine since July 7, only 1 wet day up here so far last Friday and yesterday turned surprisingly sunny in the PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While you down take a ride down Rt 198 to Chaplin and just before the Fire Station on Left is Diana’s Pool; there and the West Thompson Dam pretty neat places when there is high water.
