If its 120 degree heat index and we are stuck inside does it really matter. Thats a reasonable comparison. Now if its 90 over 68 then yea HHH. But either end of that spectrum sucks.

The other 3 were all over 4" with the highest being 4.5". No mowing until Monday I guess. I heard the commercial mowers out yesterday. I suppose you can't let your jobs get too backed up.

Weed whacked as it started and finished yesterday. Plush as it has ever been. Garden exploded with te heat and rain. Next weeks heat and rain will just add to the tropical look. Great for the wells ground water reservoirs and lakes. This will carry us through the summer. Drought monitor cancel.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdxken Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 Seem likely to lose out on the record low maxes. Only need a small break in the deck to bump it up a few degrees. Fingers crossed, if it's going to suck it might as well be a record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 With the saturated grounds and more heavy storms coming Tuesday- Fri , all we need is a strong TS to really damage some things this summer.

Wonder if I need a new tipper or have to calibrate it. I have a more classic rain gauge to compare with Davis, but should order a stratus. Either way, no need to calibrate today. Shitty all around.

tamarack Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 1 hour ago, kdxken said: I saw that. Get the fire hose going and even the folks in Maine won't be complaining about lack of rain. 0.04" since 7 AM yesterday, all coming by 9 AM. Constant mist since about 3 PM yesterday has failed to crack the 0.01" threshold. Crummy cloudy cool with just enough moisture to keep grass and foliage wet while the garden soil gets drier, about as contrary wx as I could imagine. Veggie leaves mildewing while their roots are drying out? Total of 3.12" May 1 forward, 33% of average. It's only weather. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
