FYI.
Was up in Ft Walton Beach for about 10 days. Couldn't believe when everyone said how dry it had been. It even *felt* less humid than Orlando! To me, it felt like late fall weather for a few days.
obviously,Gore was right, it's ,it's "gloworm warmmin"
Used to be you could almost set your clock by the summer afternoon showers downtown. I lived in the mighty metropolis of Semmes, so the rainfall pattern was entirely different at home.
We are getting your share here in eastern NC.
I keep a rain gauge on my fence out back and I got 1 1/2 inches on Sunday and 1/2 inch on Monday....my brother lives 4 miles away and got nary a drop!!!! KSJ said more scattered thunderstorms today....my fingers are crossed! I'm sick of sweating and sick of watering!!!!
How's the weather further west? Biloxi? New Orleans?
Over here in Texas, I have never seen it so dry in all the years I have lived here. 107 forcasted today and dry. We are down in Rainfall by a huge margin, and HOT HOT HOT.
From what I saw on Intellicast yesterday, big storms were popping up all along the coast. Eventually they made it up here. Only after we received about 2 inches did I realize I left the sprinklers on!
Anyway, Montgomery to Georgia border is about 10 inches below normal rainfall.

I live in Navarre. The hot, dry weather is the topic of discussion every day here. My sprinkler well is dry, and my yard is getting scorched. The last time I checked, we were about 20 inches below normal rainfall for the year. I keep praying for a couple tropical storms or a cat 1 hurricane.
Howdy neighbor! I live off of Whispering Pines.
It's not much better up around Huntsville-Decatur. We haven't had squat for rain for the past two months.
So do I.
About the same I believe.
