Anyone got any answers?

I'm in Norway just about 18 miles south of Oslo and yesterday we got as much rain in one day as what normally falls in the entire month of July. It's been a cold wet spring and now summer so far.

Not just the midwest...

Mu little part of the southwest has already received about double the rain we normally get in a year.

This is the first spring / summer in decades when forest / range fires were not a constant worry and threat.

Also the coolest / coldest - spring /summer in my 60+ years

Yeah we’ve had massive flooding in our area, it’s really insane, this is worse than it was back in 1993, and that was supposed to be related to the 500 year flood

Central Ohio here......our local weather guy is forecasting the same rainy weather pattern for the rest of July. Is is depressing!

Welcome to my world. We’ve had rain in KC each day for over 90% of the days since the first of May. Last Monday night I picked up another two-plus inches on my property in about an hour.

I'm raising mosquitoes, so it's all good.

Have friends in northern Iowa, they’d like to have some rain. Fields are drying up. Corn’s dying.

Joe Bastardi answered all that, and the drought in Cali months ago. I don’t have time to find the link and post it but it’s all there.

It’s not rain.

The Earth is crying.

The official answer is - you guessed it - GLOBAL WARMING!

Now pony up more taxes to the UN.

It’s the same all over the west too. CO northern Rockies here and I saw the sun today. It was shocking!

I replaced my mower with sheep, but they got too fat to move.

I have never been on a four day mower schedule. Usually by July I'm mowing once a week or longer.

This is weird. When I first moved here from MA, people thought I was crazy when I said the weather is much better here. Why? Because it would rain for awhile then dry off very quickly. In MA, the rain was often longer duration and the ground would stay wet for days, because of the soil and vegetation.

But this year in near-Cleveland is different. Since about June 10, there have been about four storms when the rain comes down in walls of water with smaller storms about half of the time between those major storms. And it hasn't dried off.

We're getting close to mid-July. If the pattern doesn't change soon, it isn't going to be much of a summer.

Since tiring of Rain, you'd like something else to fall? I know just the thing... Ooobleck!

"What's up wit dat?"

(Cliff certifies that it is not raining in his kitchen.)

Yep, I know what you mean. I live in West Virgina right across the Ohio River. It has rained every single day (except ironically the 4th of July) for the last three weeks. There is moss starting to grow on my blacktop driveway it’s been so wet for so long and I haven’t been able to mow my yard because the lawn mower sinks several inches into saturated ground.
