April 2020 Forecasts and Discussions

[SouthSardiswx]

Not gonna be a record dry April. This system today was a fast mover though. It was in and out in 5 hours and dumped only 12.3mm on Burke Mtn. Already clearing up and tomorrow looks like it will remain dry until after dark. Actually turning into a decent weekend when a few days ago it looked like a washout. Ya, deterministic GFS is overdoing the rainfall. Best to look at the ensembles for more accurate precip amounts a few days out. For predicted rainfall amounts I usually just check out the QPF link on the climate prediction center site.

I feel your pain Mr. Gumps
My grand baby is on my property in the RV with my daughter and son in law. I can see her every day, but I can’t touch or hug or smooch her. So sad!!! I don’t want her to think I don’t love her cause she is only 16 months and doesn’t understand. I just want us all to be safe and cautious.

Everyone stay safe! I’m happy 101 is on the mend!

That's sad indeed Snowgrams hopefully you can give her the biggest kiss and hug soon. Everyday l see these 2m tailgate meets in parking lots.
