Nice to see the sun to start today but clouds and showers will again be on the increase by late today. Any storms could have some heavy rain. Tomorrow storms and possibly some severe ones are likely especially tomorrow afternoon and night. It stays wet through Wednesday and we again turn cooler by that evening. Less chances of rain to end out the work week. We have received 4.02" of rain in the last 13 days.
Records for today: High 98 (1943) / Low 46 (1979) / Rain 1.20" (1912)

Another day of hot and humid, with torrential downpours that completely avoid my locale. Picked up .07" yesterday morning for a total so far of 2.84" for June, which is about half of last year's amount thus far, but actually slightly more than June 2021. Really hoping for some more today, but we'll see.

There's popcorn all around me but not over me. Can see it dark in various places but sun has been in and out here so the air is a bit unstable. What is interesting is that the radar seems to be showing a sea breeze front (or maybe east -> west outflow boundaries)  that has moved in from Jersey and actually crossed over into the city. 

I had gotten up to 88 earlier but am now down to 79 with dp 70.

This area is getting waffled. Gotta be 2-3"+ totals and still looping around and staying put...

North of here is getting nailed too I'm sure. We're kind of in the leftovers zone now with about 0.15" total so far, but the thunder is continuous. Pretty cool.

Yeah, if you're in a good spot, you're REALLY in a good spot.

Hope this batch or some of it heads my way.

Temp down to 72F from 84F/DP 68F

Getting fringed again. Can't catch a break. Two days in a row with storms forecasted all day and just .07" to show for it. Tried to dig a hole to plant a tree in the front yard and the soil is dry as a bone still. Had to break out the pick axe!

I live right between these two cells and they are both going to pass by.
