Pattern June 2024

Same back this way (Wet back porch). Hoping the early morning rain out west can hold together as it heads eastward. Looks promising right now but we've seen similar setups dissipate.

It's 82/81 here so it's plenty juiced up expect it to break down better today once the sun gets going compared to Monday.

Scape almost 3000 here at 9am lol
 
Seems concerning

Southeast

Throughout most of the Southeast, rainfall has been largely lacking over the past 3 to 4 weeks. Additionally, much of the region has experienced several heat waves over the past month, resulting in rapidly deteriorating conditions leading up to and including last week. Soil moisture, stream flows, and several derived drought indices are worsening by the day. Impacts are widespread, particularly in the agricultural sector, as pastures and rangelands are going dormant or turning brown, increasing livestock concerns as well. Several reports that crop yields are also in danger if the region doesn’t get any meaningful rainfall soon. High evapotranspiration (i.e. the evaporation of moisture from land and vegetation) rates are rapidly drying out soils and vegetation, increasing fire concerns.

Corn crop is toast, it's one thing for it to "roll up" it's another to see it turning brown in the field before tasseling out. Also starting to see some leaves fall, pretty crazy, especially considering I had over 5" last month. But no rain in June coupled with very low DPs (relatively speaking) has brought on a quick, serious situation. A few pop up storms aren't going to fix this either
 
I know these are famously inaccurate but I don't see how I'm not abnormally dry. Everything is brown except my garden which has been watered. That said the ponds and creeks are full.
Water levels are crashing here. Ponds showing 2 to 3 feet of new dirt

The grass is so prickly and dry now.

My stream flow is very low right now. Ponds are dropping fast. Lakes are holding up ok. Most summer grasses are now dormant unless irrigated. Leaf fall is increasing fast. If we keep missing rain opportunities, there will be many dead trees before the end of August. This is not the time to start a drought. It's much easier to recover when it starts in late August/September.
 
Sunday is looking similar to Monday and today with the best chance of storms along and east of 95. The next chance of rain after that is Saturday 7/7 that'll be the 1 month mark with no rain imby

That line is moving painfully slow for me down here on the coast I got to hope it sticks together long enough to make it down here
 
Slow the front down 2-3 hours and we will big today It's beyond frustrating

Yeah just east of me and it's going nuts plus moving slow, they are going to cash in down there though most of those places also in Monday.

Already over a inch in a hr in the heavier parts of the line..
