GaWx Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I got 2" this morning (9/4) and am getting another dowsing now. The rainforest climo, which dominated July and August here after a very dry mid Nov-May, seems to want to continue. Despite a low tide having been as recently as 10PM, the rain I just got 11PM-midnight produced about as bad flooding of my street/yard as any this summer and quite possibly the worst. I'll have totals later (Edit: 2.02" putting me near 4.5" already this month) but this flooding was made worse by the 2" this morning as well as a very wet late August. My water table is sky high from all of the rain the last 66 days, nearly 30"! And only ~4" of this was from an organized tropical system, the precursor to Colin on July 1st. That makes this even more unusual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn’t expecting anything looking at radar 20 min before so happy to get what we got. 0.47” for the month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantom X Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 80/67 split on the day had a heavy shower roll through at 1pm today - one of the heaviest rates in a while at 2.2" per hour - dropped 0.42" in 20 minutes - which was today's total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 More rain yesterday and especially overnight along with a new area of rain all adding to over 2" has me already near 7" for Sept so far! MBY went from among the driest in the SE US mid November through May leading to areas of cement hard soil requiring lots of sprinkler action to very wet/wetter than the vast majority of the SE since then (especially since July 1st) leading to a very high water table and a haven for mosquitoes. It is really amazing how much wetter this portion of the county has been in comparison to the western portion this summer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted September 9, 2022 Author Share Posted September 9, 2022 Comfortable morning to walk the pups in. Cool Northeasterly breeze and temps in the mid 60's was a nice change. Currently just before noon it is 78/70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 Still another batch of steady rain here with embedded heavier showers now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's been pretty wet out here in the western half, at least in the last few weeks. If y'all have been getting so much more... The two feet of water along the back fence finally drained on Wednesday. Was expecting it to come back but it hasn't rained hard out here so far today. Getting sick of clouds and rain and ready for some cooler fall days... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantom X Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 81/63 split on the day pretty nice overall getting ready for a possible dousing this weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthHillsWx Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Will update in morning but this is our best rain in awhile. Edit: 1.35” total for yesterday/this morning. Our biggest single day rainfall since first week of July 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting sick of clouds and rain and ready for some cooler fall days... It has been insanely wet since the 4" from Colin on July 1st. Since my last report late yesterday morning, I've received another 1.74" of very much unneeded rainfall bringing me to a whopping 8.74" so far this month, ~34" since June 1st, and ~27" since July 1st!! Where there isn't standing water, my grass is like a wet sponge. With that high of a water table, my AC condensation isn't draining properly as it has nowhere to go. All it can do is drain a little at a time. I have an automatic shutoff valve that shuts off the AC whenever the water in the drain pipe is backed up enough so as to prevent flooding inside near the air handler. That means only intermittent AC leading to warm and sticky inside. But there's a lot worse things than that including flooding! Currently: what else is new? More rain though it is very light and already ending thank goodness! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yotaman Posted September 11, 2022 Author Share Posted September 11, 2022 The high humidity certainly paid off in thunderstorms earlier this afternoon. 1.72" was dumped in the bucket. Sun is back out and with that, temp and dew point are going back up. Currently 77/76. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 An additional 0.45” and our first thunder of the day 1.80” two-day total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting sick of clouds and rain and ready for some cooler fall days... When will it end? I got my AC working again but here comes more heavy thunderstorms, this time in a line with lots of CTG lightning. Edit: Once again, I got well over 1" and it was within just 30 minutes. Street flooding again. Standing water throughout the yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman Posted September 11, 2022 Author Share Posted September 11, 2022 One year ago, we had lows in the 50's and highs near 80 with low humidity. Hope we could get a strong cold front soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marsman Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 High of 86 today with .29" of rain. Felt like mid-July. Looking forward to the week ahead. Meanwhile, my maple trees have shed about 30% of their leaves. I don't see any signs of disease, my first thought is the worse than usual flood/drought pattern this year.

My biggest maple has been showing colors and shedding leaves for the past few weeks. I am also thinking it must be all the rain we had the last few months.
