Been finally getting steady rains after hours of flaccid rates.

Looks like wxwatcher91 finally got some good rates in HFD too…a nice region-wide soaker

It’s on this radar too. It’s definitely not dry in that little sliver over Taunton Norton and easton

That’s just the beam being blocked by something close by to the tower.

It was spread out enough to prevent major flooding plus smaller waterways were way below normal flow.

I guess, but all the areas in the South it was like the same situation but way more damage.

Nah, believe me, I'm at peace with being an inferior snow spot to ORH.

Two weeks....two weeks remaining in the period....

They weren't as dry. Also it was like a foot of rain in a few hours over hilly terrain. Just look at what Irene did in VT and NH into western MA.

7.20 storm total. The earth is like a giant sponge, you wouldn't know we have had 7.2 inches of rain in a day.

And that was 6-8" of rain. It was also antecedent wet conditions.

Yea huge antecedent conditions difference.  I mean you wouldn't know here that over 7 inches fell.

That's like getting 2' of snow on the beach and having it blow away.   

[SouthCoastMA]

up to 1.33. and should be up over 1.5" by the end. that's a win, and fail for some of the drier models which gave the area .25 -.50

Good to see the damage is minimal there. I’m sure low lying areas are struggling but it could have been worse.

It is frustrating when I drive a mile down to the beach in winter and still see the grass on many of the beach front houses. It doesn't sit right with me after a footer.

He lives in Taunton. Why would he use another site shooting over his house at 12k feet when he can just use tilt 3 or 4 on BOX?
