Surprised to see about 0.25" recorded by a couple nearby CoCoRaHs. I guess it rained hard for those 10 minutes or so last night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mappy Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 1 hour ago, North Balti Zen said: I was on this end, Mappy just five miles north of me only had just over an inch per her post just above. That's the frustrating thing about this entire summer of rain, extremely hit and miss - we got lucky this time, lots of the area didn't. Looking north of us, up to central PA up to new england, they've taken much more area wide rains this summer and...their deluges have been even worse. I still wish we could find a forum-wide rain event that drops a gentle inch over everyone as opposed to whiffs in one area and deluges where the winners are but I guess that's just the pattern we remain stuck in. Yeah when the storms first popped and merged together they were just to my southeast. Could hear thunder for quite some time but no rain. Eventually it expanded and I got some rain. Another storm came up from the south around 11 to rain some more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87storms Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 The ol' NW flow and clouds have begun making their appearance. Forecast shows sunny tomorrow which is pretty unusual in this pattern. We'll see. I hope it's right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh? There were flooding issues yesterday in some spots. I'm not sure you understand how a Flood Watch works. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
