Excuse me but WHEN exactly did I move to Miami?

DH was in NYC yesterday and kept calling asking if it was raining here in Central NJ, 40 miles south of NYC
NO RAIN at all. Heard a little thunder, once.........
I guess we are not zoned for it.

Today it's a kind of gray sunny day, but no rain, no thunder...

We did have that rainy weather pattern when we were in Vermont (which is no fun at all when you plan to swim and hike. They got 3x as much rain as they normally get in July, close to 10").

We're getting the same weather here in CT. I can handle it...usually by now my lawn is brown..it's still green

Frank I have spent a lot of time in Miami in my life and yeah it rains there, especially in the afternoons in summer. Violenty. To the point people pull over on the interstates and then it's over.

This summer has reminded me of my time there.

Another deluge here around 4 PM. Just got in from working on the somewhat washed out driveway. 4th wettest July ever recorded and we already are over the August average. I'll take it over '55 tho.

Holy Moly, did my area get hit hard. My area also wound up having a tornado watch, along with a major deluge. The entire area is flooded. It's still raining, and I doubt we've seen the last of these storms, for the night.....Of course I lost electricity for over 2 1/2 hrs. It just came back on, and I'm praying that we don't loose it again.

FYI - I am further east then the lovely Angela and so far we have just had a lightening show - still no rain but I heard Nassau County and western Suffolk are hard hit.

We are 5" below average in rainfall. Please send some.

Here is upstate NY we have been getting the same thing but the afternoon rains are downpours most of the time, more so than I have ever noticed before. Unfortunately they do little for just watering things in like a long steady rain would. They have caused lots of problems with flooding, etc. And most of the plantings (flowers and home gardens) have been getting devistated by too much water too fast. But the morning and evenings have been beautiful.
