stormy Posted July 3 Share Posted July 3 The Euro A1FS thru 7-15 has been very dry for the past week. It has soared from .70" to 2.75" for my back yard in one run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dailylurker Posted July 3 Share Posted July 3 Brutally dry here. The farms in my area have total crop loss, bushes, shrubs and small trees are starting die. My neighbors apple tree looks like it's about to give up. Missing the rain over the weekend was the difference between losing and saving the years crop for farmers. I hope they have crop insurance. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh? We issue HA for 90f now? I clicked inside the Beltway and got it up to 93. Still pretty pathetic. Maybe we'll bust over. 76/67 here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kgottwald Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 Dewpoint at IAD still 64, DCA 66. The dry ground must be helping to suppress it. Hopefully if downtown DC doesn't get rain it won't be too muggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87storms Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 This is basically a standard, mid-Atlantic summer pattern. Humid with a chance of afternoon and evening t-storms into next week with the except of a day or two of drier weather. Some will get rain, some won’t. There’s no widespread storm to track. Personally, this is one of my favorite types of weather patterns (though I do agree…it’s a little bit of a spicy tortilla out there). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the dairy farms around here have extensive irrigation systems. It is a must given the scattered, inconsistent nature of summer rains. Not sure how any farm in our region can depend exclusively on mother nature to deliver the needed water for feed corn etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
