Lol. Im telling ya, if this pattern keeps going there will be early frost, freeze, snow and a hard winter again. Problem is I've seen patterns change fast so we'll see. I haven't read the article but like the sound of it and how would we know what could happen 4 weeks from now?

Interesting! I'm making a movie for a family member so computer is taken. Lol. Will check soon.

Looks like 1.17" fell at BDR on August 5, 1995 while NYC only got 0.13". So yeah, looks like localized downpour got to BDR. Here's radar image for after midnight that day.

How much?...

Rain Total Forecast now until Thursday morning.

Doesn't include embedded downpours which can add to this. And most of this should fall within 24hrs

Bridgeport CT (BDR) only has 0.40" of rain since mid July. For period of July 16 to August 11 thats 3rd driest. Ground will soak up a good amount but as we know if a lot falls in short time local flooding will occur.

Are you guys liking the humidity?

Southeast winds right off the Atlantic and the warm southerly flow is making the dewpoints get up there.

I got a muggy dewpoint of 69° here.

70s not too far south of us.

The bolded green is probably most important to most of you. lol.

AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE GREAT LAKES WILL EVENTUALLY CLOSE OFF
AS IT MOVES THROUGH EASTERN CANADA
. A PIECE OF VORTICITY
ENERGY...SWINGING THROUGH THE BASE OF THE TROUGH WILL RESULT IN THE
DEVELOPMENT OF A SECONDARY LOW NEAR THE DELMARVA PENINSULA. THIS
SECONDARY LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM IS THEN EXPECTED TO MOVE
NORTHEAST...PASSING OVER THE LOCAL AREA
DURING THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY.
AN INCREASE OF MOISTURE WILL BE USHERED INTO THE REGION...THANKS TO
THE DEVELOPMENT OF A LOW LEVEL JET. PWATS WILL INCREASE TO NEAR 2
INCHES. WITH THE INCREASED MOISTURE...HIGH RAINFALL RATES CAN BE
EXPECTED. BECAUSE OF THIS...A FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT
FOR THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA THROUGH WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.

HIGH TIDE COINCIDING WITH HEAVY RAIN TONIGHT WILL EXACERBATE THE
FLOODING SITUATION. SEE HYDRO AND TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING SECTIONS
FOR MORE INFORMATION.

ALSO...WITH MARGINAL INSTABILITY OVERNIGHT THERE IS THE POTENTIAL
FOR A FEW STRONG THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP. SOME OF THESE STORMS WILL
BE CAPABLE OF DAMAGING WINDS OR EVEN A BRIEF TORNADO DURING THE
MORNING HOURS ALONG THE WARM FRONT.


MOST OF THE HEAVY RAIN WILL COME TO AN END ACROSS THE WESTERN HALF
OF THE FORECAST BY EARLY AFTERNOON.
SOME MODERATE TO LOCALLY HEAVYRAIN WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE EASTERN SECTIONS.

Where is the rain/rotation etc.

Bone dry in midtown and only light rain north of the city. Every forecast basically wrote off today as a rain out. Completely off. Has the meteorological community resorting to hyping summer rain systems to blizzard levels?

lol.. that's why I hate talking about rain and storms... just seems like it never happens to where an alarm has to go off. Anyway... wasn't supposed to be today for us...

Baltimore 6-10 inches of rain. Water rescues all over.

Radar NOT impressive... we'll see tonight or in morning how it is which is when we are supposed to get the heavy stuff.

There might be some impressive downpours being the atmosphere is loaded. "Potential" not guaranteed.
