We were thinking about keeping things fresh with a seasonal theme change for the site so I present to you...
The Weather Forums - Spring Edition!
At the start of each season we will change to a new color scheme that gives off the vibes of that season. So we will be sticking with this spring version until the end of June or so. Figure this will keep the website timely and also add a bit of fun to the kind of mundane blue/white/gray color scheme we usually go for.
Please let me kno
Doing the same thing next week flying to Charleston with only one real option from SEA. Tried to put it out of my mind but you just increased my anxiety again.
For the first 20 days of June 2022 there was only one day here without rain and only 2 days at SEA with 0.00 for the day. But for the first 10 days of the month it was a warm, humid rain.
Then it only rained on 5 days from June 20 - October 20.
You've done pretty well as has @OttumwaSnomow and this mornings rain is just adding to that theme today. I fully anticipate this pattern to persist well into MAY which could be too much of a good thing? Hope it doesn't get TOO wet for the planting season.
I wanted to comment about the weather on Tuesday, but I always get sidetracked in doing and looking at other things. Plus I was helping with storm cleanup for people from my church that evening. The first batch of showers Tuesday afternoon was heavier then it appeared on radar as PWATS were quite high, but I was in a gap between heavier cells of course. Still ended the first round with exactly 0.40". Then a short period of sunshine preceded an ominous shelf cloud from the last brief intense line of storms. The sky looked greenish, and I was out shooting video (with iPhone 15 Pro Max) and photos till the last second! But only 0.24" rain from that line with wind gust only around 43 mph and not as windy at my location as early in the afternoon. But had some decent hail with a few of the largest stones at 1" diameter. But 2 farms approximately 3-4 miles se. of me had buildings destroyed from a possible little spin up tornado or microburst? One building was totally flattened and the other farm had half of the roof gone among other damage. Total rainfall on Tuesday was only 0.64".
The drought maps may be off for my location since we've had very good rains in March, and especially this month. Field tile lines are running since the heavy rains of early April and water is standing in roadside ditches after each rainfall. With today's rainfall I'm approaching 4" for the month. And it looks active again by late April.
Just checked my weather station and I'm just over 4" for the month now, with over a third of an inch so far today.
