87storms Posted July 12, 2024 Share Posted July 12, 2024 Pretty wimpy rainfall so far in Columbia. This is the type of precip you get when there's a drought...usually because the flow upstairs just ain't cuttin' it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yeah old Hogback and Furnace Mts really dried things up in Frederick Wednesday. Today is just one of those days where the rain says, “yeah I’m not going north, I’m tired.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dailylurker Posted July 12, 2024 Share Posted July 12, 2024 Seems like it's turning out to be another hot sunny day. Bone dry with full sun just west of Annopoils. I'm out hiking. I thought it was going to be a nice rainy hike. It's dusty and nasty lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osfan24 Posted July 12, 2024 Share Posted July 12, 2024 Well, it's raining. I guess that's something. But radar is really uninspiring at the moment. Not sure this is going to help the drought at all unless the radar starts blowing up. Looks to be actually drying up to me at the moment. Congrats Richmond and east. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weather Will Posted July 12, 2024 Share Posted July 12, 2024 The ground is a little wet. If this were winter there would be wailing and gnashing of teeth. In fairness, the western suburbs were always on the edge of the precipitation. I was hoping for a .25. Don't think it is going to happen....

frd Posted July 12, 2024 Share Posted July 12, 2024 Pathetic rains so far, versus forecasts and expectations. But, for SW Delaware and the beaches of Dewey to Rehoboth they are getting slammed.

Flood watch until tomorrow Am, so maybe tonight the rain returns. Expand Probably some subsidence, but the dewpoints have crept up from the Catoctin Mts. east, so it's possible the front may be drifting west. If so, this puts I-95 in the game for at least a few hours of rain overnight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
