Lava Rock Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 28 minutes ago, CoastalWx said: .25” perfect for the seed. I seeded an area 2 wks ago and covered with peat moss, but peat is tricky cause it looks like it covers well initially then it gets either blown away or just doesn't last, exposing the seed. Areas where the peat stayed looks ok, but everywhere else, nothing. I need to put some more seed down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it grows it grows is my mentality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait until late spring to see what you got, it just might green up better than you thought-that seed will still be there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peat is also tricky because it takes a while to really water it in, unlike topsoil for example. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you get golf in? Still misting and drizzle at times here. Ended up with 3.02” in two empties of the Stratus throughout the event. Has to be the largest precipitation event for here in a long time. This image was before today’s showers and not comparable to my total (taken after todays rain). Maybe another half inch with the FROPA later in the week… probably going to be the wettest week of the year, ha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was touch and go with rain on 89 and down the hill towards Northfield but it stopped by the time we teed of just after 4:00. I had .53” today, bringing me up to 2.40” since Sunday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spring and fall What was different between this and the 2-3 days of rain in CT only two weeks ago? It was a pretty humid, convective rain too, yesterday was a series of t-storms. Honestly seemed pretty similar. We had been one of the drier zones despite over the last 6 weeks, so it was needed rain. Despite a high number of days with measurable water. All I know is after a few months of no widespread big precipitation events, there have been two now in the past 3 weeks. One in SNE, one in NNE. Both multi-day events. That’s some pattern change indicators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
